Die Käfer
The Beatles in an alternate history where the Nazis won WWII and took over most of the world, from the video game Wolfenstein: The New Order. An action-adventure first-person shooter developed by MachineGames and published by Bethesda Softworks in 2014 for PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Windows, Xbox 360, and Xbox One. Set in the early 1960s, it's the seventh entry in the long-running Wolfenstein video game series.
Since Great Britain is Nazi-controlled, they have to sing in German or face being banned and detained by the Nazi regime. They changed their name to "Die Käfer" and learned to sing in German.
They are on state-owned German record label the Neumond Recording Company, touring in support of their Das Blaue U-Boot album, and have a song on the soundtrack; "Mond, Mond, Ja, Ja."
In the 2019 sequel Wolfenstein: Youngblood, set in 1980, the soundtrack includes a disco remix of "Mond, Mond, Ja, Ja."
