When I first saw Heino I thought he looked like a blonde Roy Orbison.
Apparently there is a genre of German music called “Schlagger” which a friend described as “elvis meets sinatra and lost of heimatlieder.” (?!?!) Schlagger is apparently “a distinct genre for old german ladies…”
If you like kitsh, you’ll love Heino!

DANH: HEINO is inhuman

BRIAN: like an undead roy orbison?
DANH: yeah
DANH: he has a lazy eye so he has to wear those huge sunglasses all the time
BRIAN: oh is that why?
BRIAN: frightening
