High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Sonderzug nach Pankow (Special train to Pankow) is the title of the song of the German rock singer Udo Lindenberg released as a single on 2 February 1983. Its origin is a reaction to the refusal of his wish for a concert in the German Democratic Republic (GDR) by the GDR-administration in charge. The text of this approximately three minutes long song appeals ironically directly to the former president of the State Council of the German Democratic Republic Erich Honecker. The melody is based on the swing classic Chattanooga Choo Choo by Glenn Miller from the year 1941; the text is loosely based on the lyrics for Zug nach Kotzschenbroda by Bully Buhlan from 1946, which uses the same melody. With regard to the Berlin borough Pankow, the title is based on the fact that Schloss Schonhausen situated there was the seat of the president from 1949 until 1960 and was later seat of the State Council of the German Democratic Republic until 1964. After that many members of the GDR government and high employees of the other administration departments of the government lived in Pankow, for example in the Majakowskiring.
