Hippie

A hippie (or hippy) is a member of a liberal counterculture, originally a youth movement that started in the United States and United Kingdom during the mid-1960s and spread to other countries around the world. The word hippie came from hipster and was initially used to describe beatniks who had moved into New York City's Greenwich Village and San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury district. The term hippie was first popularized in San Francisco by Herb Caen, who was a journalist for the San Francisco Chronicle. The origins of the terms hip and hep are uncertain, although by the 1940s both had become part of African American jive slang and meant "sophisticated; currently fashionable; fully up-to-date". The Beats adopted the term hip, and early hippies inherited the language and countercultural values of the Beat Generation. Hippies created their own communities, listened to psychedelic music, embraced the sexual revolution, and used drugs such as cannabis, LSD, peyote and psilocybin mushrooms to explore altered states of consciousness.

    Hippies (TV series)

    Hippies is a six-part British television comedy series broadcast from 12 November to 17 December 1999. It was created by Arthur Mathews and Graham Linehan, the writing partnership most famous for Father Ted, but the scripts were written by Mathews alone. It starred Simon Pegg, Sally Phillips, Julian Rhind-Tutt and Darren Boyd.

    Synopsis

    Hippies is set in 1969 in 'Swinging London' and is set around Ray Purbbs (Pegg), who is the editor of a counterculture magazine called Mouth (a parody of Oz, International Times, Frendz and other underground magazines of the time), which he produces in his flat in Notting Hill Gate. He is aided by Alex Picton-Dinch (Rhind-Tutt), Hugo Yemp (Boyd) and Jill Sprint (Phillips), Sprint is also Purbbs' girlfriend, or he thinks she is his girlfriend.

    The series delves into late 1960s culture and involves the characters in various embarrassing situations in this setting.

    Critical reaction

    The series was Mathews and Linehan's immediate follow up to the hugely popular and highly successful, Father Ted. As such it received a significant amount of pre-release hype which viewers felt let down by after watching the first few episodes, as it did not meet their expectations. In general it was badly received by critics.

    Hippies

    by: Boehse Onkelz

    Hier sind neue fromme Lieder
    Von den Engeln in zivil
    Nichts ist uns heilig
    Kein Seitenhieb zuviel
    Hier sind Reime aus dem Leben
    Lieder wie Orkane
    Rhythmen die das Land bewegen
    Mehr als nur Schikane
    Fahr mit uns in den Himmel
    Wir ebnen Dir den Weg
    Wir öffnen Dir die Augen
    Wir zeigen Dir wie's geht
    Hier sind die Onkelz
    Schnall Dich an
    Warum willst Du laufen
    Wenn Du fliegen kannst
    Hier sind neue Schweinereien
    Von dem Feindbild Nummer eins
    Ihr solltet uns belohnen
    sonst hättet ihr keins
    Ja, wir bringen dieses Land
    dem Tod ein Stück näher
    Wir sind geistige Verführer
    Kopfverdreher
    Was lange währt wird endlich gut
    Denn nie war'n wir besser
    Ihr hört uns nicht aus Zufall
    Wir sind schärfer als Dein Messer
    Flüssiger Wahnsinn
    Ein Schluck Poesie
    Eine Überdosis Onkelz vergißt Du nie
    Eine Überdosis Onkelz und Du mußt in Therapie
