"From Paris to Berlin" is a song by Infernal. It is known as their signature song, since this is the first song that charted in many several countries across Europe in 2005. It has so far been their biggest hit internationally, as well as in the band's home country of Denmark. Ahead of the World Cup 2006, the song had been re-recorded for English fans with lyrics celebrating the English football squad with the title "From London to Berlin". However, the song was withdrawn from radio airplay and TV following England's knockout from the World Cup. Also, a spoof video of it was published on the BBC Radio One website, and it was nicknamed "The Gay Disco Song". The single was the UK's sixth best selling single of the year.[1] Chew Sin Huey recorded a cover called "From Taipei to Beijing" in late 2006.
