It is indeed. It's pretty idiomatic; I'm not sure what 'you don't tear more than your head away!' is meant to mean, but it probably makes sense in German. I like it, though. The translation sounds simplistic, but when it's in a foreign language, somehow everything sounds less stupid. (:

Yeah. The meaning, it's nice. That's one of the few optimistic songs I can tolerate. (: They're actually a punk rock band, but they're too happy for that, really.

I don't know! I accepted your invitation, but it said you hadn't been online. (My msn hates EVERYONE.) I'll try deleting you and re-adding you, yeah?

Aha, thank'ee! (: Don't mind me. I have a major problem with the idea that 'gehen' means more than just 'to go' in the literal, physical sense. I am, however, getting way less literal with my translations, hopefully.

I love that song! And it sounds so GOOD. It's optimistic, and happy, and some of the only happy music I can actually stand.

Wir Sind Helden? I haven't heard any, I'll limewire some (bad Kerily, I know.) I can stand pop-ish stuff, if I have to, and if it's funny. I'll have a look. Thanks a lot (:

I'm throwing all my efforts into learning German as quickly as I can! Sadly, however, it is a really rather evil language, and gets harder the more of it I learn. I want to be fluent in it one day, though.

So sad! You should have been in Berlin! We also have to go and see DTH sometime (when, I don't know, because I think they only really play in Germany and I'm not going there anytime soon, and my trip to Köln got cancelled, but ssh, it will happen someday) as that would also be awesomesauce. I have so many bands on my hit list to see live :D
