A bit of context and translation for those interested: The song is sung in a dialect called Kölsch, spoken by people living in and around Cologne (though most people speak standard German with a Kölsch-ish accent). It's about driving home to Cologne and its cathedral - the city's most famous landmark - which he addresses in person. It might sound a bit spiritual that your home is a cathedral, but for most of Cologne's citizens the cathedral is more like a symbol of their home than a religious place. The song translates to: 600 kilometres away from what is home I'm driving all night until I see your spires White stripes on the asphalt Coffee gets cold The music gets louder, my seatbelt is fastened 600 kilometres until I can breathe again I turn off the GPS, I'll find the way on my own Blue signs, white labeling My car is a ship Full speed ahead, firm hand on the tiller And this street always goes straight Eventually an exit to the right; we're at the destination Your radiance in the night never turns off Saying "I'm home" And then the sun rises bright and clear I'm driving on the Zoobrücke [zoo bridge] and I'm there Windows down, Cologne's air I sing Home is where the cathedral is If this was New York, you'd be the statue of liberty No matter where someone is coming from, he always sees where he has to go You're the direction and the destination The cross on the map When I see you, I finally arrive 00 kilometres away from what is home I'm driving all night until I see your spires White stripes in the night The song keeps me awake And I'm driving towards a new day And this street always goes straight Eventually an exit to the right; we're at the destination Your radiance in the night never turns off Saying "I'm home" And then the sun rises bright and clear I'm driving on the Zoobrücke [zoo bridge] and I'm there I will never get tired of this view I sing Home is where the cathedral is You stand where I belong The reason that I drive all night towards I always return to you Hey hey And then the sun rises bright and clear I'm driving on the Zoobrücke [zoo bridge] and I'm there I will never get tired of this view I sing Home is where the cathedral is
This song is dope! There is no better song for coming home! This always makes me think of the feeling driving on the A4, driving down that hill where you can can see the whole city right in front of you :-) Stadt met K - Immer nur du!
Migne Leed ❤❤❤ Es sind 600 km vun mir noh Kölle... Heimat ❤❤❤ un isch kumm zorück ❤❤❤
Mein ganzes ❤ ist Kölsch ... 😊

The song translates to:
600 kilometres away from what is home
I'm driving all night until I see your spires
White stripes on the asphalt
Coffee gets cold
The music gets louder, my seatbelt is fastened
600 kilometres until I can breathe again
I turn off the GPS, I'll find the way on my own
Blue signs, white labeling
My car is a ship
Full speed ahead, firm hand on the tiller
And this street always goes straight
Eventually an exit to the right; we're at the destination
Your radiance in the night never turns off
Saying "I'm home"
And then the sun rises bright and clear
I'm driving on the Zoobrücke [zoo bridge] and I'm there
Windows down, Cologne's air
I sing
Home is where the cathedral is
If this was New York, you'd be the statue of liberty
No matter where someone is coming from, he always sees where he has to go
You're the direction and the destination
The cross on the map
When I see you, I finally arrive
00 kilometres away from what is home
I'm driving all night until I see your spires
White stripes in the night
The song keeps me awake
And I'm driving towards a new day
And this street always goes straight
Eventually an exit to the right; we're at the destination
Your radiance in the night never turns off
Saying "I'm home"
And then the sun rises bright and clear
I'm driving on the Zoobrücke [zoo bridge] and I'm there
I will never get tired of this view
I sing
Home is where the cathedral is
You stand where I belong
The reason that I drive all night towards
I always return to you
Hey hey
And then the sun rises bright and clear
I'm driving on the Zoobrücke [zoo bridge] and I'm there
I will never get tired of this view
I sing
Home is where the cathedral is
Ihr singt mir aus der Seele. Bin Busfahrer und genau das ist es:-)
Mega cooles Lied♥
