The very fact that if I search for the song "Erika" and am immediately confronted with results depicting WW2 German soldiers and other Nazi symbols attests to this association. While certainly the song remained popular after the war, it was primarily because of how popular it was among German soldiers, much like the American song "Dixie" is well-known even today despite the fact that it is absolutely tied to the Confederate States of America. I would argue that the song is very difficult to dissociate from the Nazi regime for this reason.

The song itself was very popular in the Wehrmacht and the Waffen-SS and is heavily associated with Nazi Germany in numerous media such as the 1993 movie Schindler's List where it is used as a Nazi motif. Well,now my oatmeal is cold.Erika was written at some point in the 1930s by Herms Niel, who became what essentially was a musical propagandist for the Nazi regime after the Nazi rise to power in 1933. I wish we could have dedicated music section in this forum. The best EVER and I play them all the time.I can sing along to German Army Chorus which has a terrific studio band.I have to force my self to stop walking and go home!

All the current BW recordings cannot compare to these early BW bands as they have now been "gelded" to be PC. I am playing "Der grosse Zapfenstreich" circa 1960 at this moment.I do not have the record jackets info with me here.This was the glory time,for me,of German music.the best sound recording of the greatest music played by BW bands in the style of the WM bands or better.I told Diane at Brandenburg and Brian Matthews at Tomahawk about these LPs,even sent a track or two but never heard from them.
