Liebeswalzer is the fourth album by the East German rock group Silly. It was released in 1985.
Liebeswalzer was originally recorded as Zwischen unbefahr'nen Gleisen (literally translated as Between Untraveled Tracks), but the album — pressed, printed, and ready for release — was ordered to be destroyed by East German officials for unapproved lyrics. Released in its place was the album Liebeswalzer (Waltz of Love), containing the approved tracks from Zwischen unbefahr'nen Gleisen and different versions of the offending songs: Tausend Augen (Thousand Eyes), the title track Zwischen unbefahr'nen Gleisen, and Nur ein Lied (Only a Song) were re-recorded with new lyrics and arrangements and renamed Psycho, Berliner Frühling (Berlin Spring), and Großer Träumer (Big Dreamer), respectively.[1]
In 1990 — as East Germany was in its dying days — Liebeswalzer was re-released with the original songs included.
