As one of the few german musicians being able to say that they've recorded an mtv unplugged concert, indie-rock band Sportfreunde Stiller succesfully participated this year.
Generally speaking, their music is rather quiet and their lyrics are thoughtful(-romantic) but clever and funny as well! I neither know all of their albums, nor have I listened to all of their songs yet, but as far as I've done, i must say they're unexceptionally decent!

I don't like them, they're really nothing special and just can't catch my ear.

There's so many bands like this that just don't get the exposure that these guys got. But if I put an apple into spotlight, it's still just an apple.

question is, if they deserve it. i think stiller are just good! musically and, which is most important, they are doing well live.
just watched the mtv unplugged making of. well, xavier naidoo has got this privilege as well and he's incredibly bad.
it's always popular bands to be exposed like that.
i just like stiller's sound and how they're down-to-earth. i don't need something "special" all the time.
can you give names for all the bands you mean?
