Silbermond of Bautzen in eastern Germany have risen to fame in the pop charts mostly with gorgeous ballads, so it's no wonder that the band's drummer, Andreas Nowak, names another famous rock ballad as his alltime favorite tune: Stairway To Heaven by Led Zeppelin!

German heavy metalers Scorpions are themselves rocked by Deep Purple.

Jean-Michel Tourrette of Germany's new rock heroes Wir Sind Helden go for Thom Yorke and Radiohead.

And finally – the truth is out about the favorite song of the host of "Hits in Germany," Deborah Friedman.
