Cabaret (Original Soundtrack) - Tomorrow Belongs To Me

“Tomorrow Belongs To Me” is a song written by John Kander and Fred Ebb, taken from both the 1966 Broadway production and 1972 film Cabaret. Trying to research anything about this song is a bit of a challenge, as the internet takes you down a slippery slope towards some shitty, lameass skinhead band called Skrewdriver who seem to have made this song one of their own… but eff them.

In the film, this is the only song sung outside of the cabaret setting and was written in traditional German style, sung by the Nazi youth in the movie in an effort to stir up patriotism for zee “Fahzahland” (Fun fact: song sung in a beer garden, I love those things..) “Tomorrow Belongs To Me” has often been mistaken for a genuine Nazi anthem (hi Skrewdriver) and has led to the songwriters being accused of anti-Semitism — a hilarious accusation seeing as the song writers are in fact Jewish.

Is this little blonde dude old enough to be in a beer garden?
