Adrian Stern is a Swiss artist, hailing from Baden. He speaks the Zurich dialect of Swiss German, also known as “Züridüütsch.” Usually dialects of German are only spoken, but Adrian Stern uses the phonetic spelling of Swiss German in his song titles and on his web site. This has made him wildly popular in Switzerland.
Stern’s probably greatest hit so far is “ha nur welle wüsse (öb ich di chan küsse)” - “Just wanted to know (whether I may kiss you)”. His latest album entitled Lieber Lieder (preferably songs) has been released in February 2008. |
