Why are Emma Stone and Andrew Garfield singing in German for this Amazing Spider-Man promotion video?

So I guess Sony is pulling out all the stops to get their new Spidey movie some attention after all the buzz around The Avengers and The Dark Knight Rises. It’s kind of being like mayonaise in a sandwich that also contains ketchup and mustard. Except there’s more ketchup and mustard so you can’t really taste the mayonaise. Or, in this case: The Amazing Spider-Man.

Their solution, at least in Germany, was to have Amazing Spider-Man stars Emma Stone and Andrew Garfield sing about the web-crawler in German. Apparently this was for some German TV show, where they apparently trap actors in a green room and make them dance and sing.

Emma Stone stands out here. Garfield looks like he’s holding something back. He wants to belt out, but he’s afraid. Or something, I don’t know. Check it out. [Crushable via FilmDrunk]
