""He started singing the anthem of Hitler that was back in the day," Zverev explained. "It was 'Deutschland über alles' and it was a bit too much."
The player is an idiot and doesn't even know his own country's history. Deutschlandlied where the phrase comes from was the German national anthem and predated the nazi regime. The song is actually still the anthem but only the third stanza.
And for the most part Deutschlandlied was replaced by Horst-Wessel-Lied which was the co-anthem of Nazi Germany but for all intents and purposes was the primary anthem of Germany. Only the first stanza of Deutschland would be played (the uber alles one) and then the entire Horst Wessel Lied would be played.
It even predated a unified German state, which is why it says what it does. The point is not "Germany above other peoples", but for Germans to put Germany above individual German states like Bavaria or Wuerttemberg (which I strongly oppose, but that's another matter).
Even if you wanted to sing the uber alles part, it might be "a bit much", but only because of the Frankfurt School's insane institutionalization of the German people has raped the germans ability to express pride in any aspect of their nation, because the Fabians wanted to cultivate an internationalist socialist shithole.

It's okay to be German.
It was originally, ‘G-tt erhalte Franz den Kaiser.’
