Neuer's a bit of a mentalist. Amazing keeper overall, but always been a bit loopy.

They always play it at home after a Bayern goal.

Germans like cheese in their goal music
From The Athletic...
"Bayern are one of the biggest football clubs in the world, so in the age of acute brand awareness, a piece of music written in the 19th century is an odd Torhymne (goal anthem).
Technically, the can-can is a dance. The music commonly associated with it is the Galop Infernal from Jacques Offenbach’s opera, Orpheus in the Underworld.
There’s context here. Many German clubs employ music that would otherwise be deeply unfashionable. Hamburg, Borussia Monchengladbach and Heidenheim each have Torhymnen performed by happy hardcore legends Scooter.
Eintracht Frankfurt play Franz von Suppe’s Light Cavalry Overture at the Waldstadion. The Proclaimers’ I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles) booms around the Weserstadion whenever Werder Bremen score. Wolfsburg use Rama Lama Ding Dong by Rocky Sharpe and the Replays, which reached No 17 in the British charts back in 1978, and until 2024 Bayer Leverkusen were playing Status Quo.
So, German goal music is concerned more with fun or regional identity than any pretensions of cool, and the can-can music does not seem incongruous. It is not even unique, since second-tier Bochum play it at their Ruhrstadion.
Premier League fans recoil at the idea of goal music, but it has been around in various forms since the 1970s in Germany. But it was not until the early 1990s that the can-can became Bayern’s first Torhymne at the Olympiastadion, their home between 1972 and 2005."
