Point is: there's no such thing as being an "adult", for the child within knows nothing about age. And the right music melts all those years like snowflakes. Thanks Nena !

    I think she's more beautiful now than she was in the 70s. I don't know what it is about the song, which became popular when I was in the US Army stationed in Frankfurt AM, but it has always made me tearful. Perhaps, it's the fear we all had back then or perhaps it's the innocence of wishing it would stop.. I can't be sure but I still feel it at 69, all these years later.

    I listened this song for the first time when I was a little kid, then when I got my first computer with internet at 11 years old I started to listen more nena's music and I became in her fan, actually I'm 27 and still listeing her great music, during the lockdown I decided to start german lessons, actually I'm a begginer with the language but thank you Nena for showing me how great is Germany, german language and german people.

    I am from Canada and I fell in love with Nena's voice and this song when I was a young teenager. Song reminds me of so many great times and memories. The English lyrics different but it didn't matter when that red balloon blew up and away in the sky. I wish I could get those days back.

      ​@@coldwater5707Are U out of your mind or just a Kremlin troll? Tell that to Finland which has just joined NATO after decades of being neutral. Russian imperialism is to blame for this war and nothing else. Countries like Estonia are safe today precisely because they are part of NATO whereas Ukraine is not and that's why it was invaded by the gangster in the Kremlin who poisons his political opponents. He is trying to restore the Russian/Soviet empire. Fortunately, it looks like his kleptocratic regime (corrupt to the core, based on lies and oppression) will be incapable of achieving that.

    I’m a huge Nena fan and this is the first time I’ve seen the German lyrics translated to English. The German lyrics are worlds better!
    The English version sounds absolutely superficial by comparison.
    Side note: “Das Land der Elefanten” by Nena has followed me through 4 decades of my life. That powerful, raw tribal beat up-ends me even 40 years on.

      Well, the drummer at least is nearly her age. That’s Zach Alford, played several years in Bowie’s band and all the way back to the B-52’s in 1989-1990. You can find some of their appearances from back then and you’ll see him.
