Term with literal meaning of above in German. Brought to the mainstream in the early 80's by hardcore American punk band, the Dead Kennedys when using the term in the anti-Californian government song California Uber Alles, which is a take off the German motto of Deustchland Uber Alles, which translates to Germany above all.
uber alles (correctly written in German ueber alles) has nothing to do with the Nazis, but was a line of a poem written in 1841 which was used for the German National Anthem. It does not translate as above all (that would be ueber allen) but rather more than anything else, as in ich liebe Dich ueber alles in der Welt (I love you more than anything else in the world).
