Aside from his own lyrics, he also performs works of famous poets like Eichendorff . He now rarely sings the workers' songs and socialist hymns that used to be a large part of his repertoire. He recently published an album exclusively with songs by Franz Schubert . He also performed translated works from Carl Michael Bellman on the album "Liebe, Schnaps & Tod".
