The video

In the video, Die Ärzte are running and jumping on a beach, obviously happy and on the other hand performing some kind of dance, singing the song in another location. The video very often jumps between those two locations. The video was filmed in Spain, during a tour break, and was released on the Killer DVD/VHS. "The Making of" was released on the Gefangen im Schattenreich von Die Ärzte DVD/VHS.

B-sides

  • "Chanson d'Albert" (Albert's song in French) is the English language version of "Schunder-Song" which appeared on their album, Planet Punk. It is about a violent girl and is dedicated to Albert Slendebroek, the head of Metronome.
  • The original version of "Haar" (hair) is from "Le Frisur". It is a song from the musical Hair. The remix is not on the vinyl version of the single.
