Pete Doherty was dragged off stage at a festival in Germany this weekend, after singing the controversial first stanza of Das Deutschlandlied. The opening verse, beginning with the words "Deutschland über alles", is often considered a Nazi anthem.
He sang "'Deutschland, Deutschland über alles' four times," according to Rudi Kuffner, a festival spokesman. "Then the audience booed him so loudly that he had to start another song." Doherty reportedly played five more songs before he was asked to leave by an organiser. He threw his microphone at her, according to the Munich TZ newspaper, and stormed off.

From listening to the background noise of the crowd talking to one another, they were clearly showing no interest to what he is playing and he resorted to insulting them by singing an old nazi song.
