    12:06 It took me almost 20 years to figure out what the song actually is about. As a child, I did not really get it. Later and when I learned that his wife died, and after having some negative phases in my own life, I started to understand. The song seemingly about enyoing life, is in between the lines about being absolutely devastated, trying to cope with it by telling yourself that everything is fine, while it's actually not fine at all.
    Every verse, he sings about how nice it is, is broken, as he puts the ending line always with the actual conclusion: "I miss you", he repeats that over and over. Or like the part when he sings about the blue sky, while not paying his bills. Superficially it looks like he was carefree, but it actually points out that he is/was so depressed and sad, he could not even get his daily chores done .

    Under the video itself it says there were 65,000 viewers. Today this arena can hold up to 80,000 people for concerts. Grönemeyer's album "4630 Bochum" - the 4630 is the zip code at the time - was released in 1984 and he grew up in Bochum. This album was his commercial breakthrough. He has released 17 albums to date. The album "Mensch" is his most commercially successful album with 3.6 million records sold. He recorded it in London, where he retreated after the death of his brother and his wife a short time later. He started making music again because he was afraid of losing it too.

      His popularity originally came from playing a supported role in "Das Boot" directed by Wolfgang Petersen. When he was asked what his further long plans would be, he answered that he wanted to concentrate on his core talent to be a musician! Germany was shocked because nobody had ever heard of him as a musician. Well, well we all thought, that he was crazy! With much of luck he got a role in one of the most iconic movies of all time! And then he told us that he wasn't an actor but more a musician!

    Thank you for your reaction to Herbert Grönemeyer live in GELSENKIRCHEN.
    There are said to have been around 60,000 to 65,000 people in this football stadium at the time.
    Today, almost 80,000 people can enter the stadium for major events.
    In addition to being a singer, songwriter, musician, he was also an actor. (1981 "The Boat")
    After the family tragedy in November 1998, in which he lost his brother on the 1st and his wife on the 5th, he disappeared from the stage (understandable).
    In 2002 he dedicated “Der Weg” to his wife and “ Mensch” he came back stronger.

    His album "Mensch" (< "human") is the 2nd most sold album in Germany. Also he sold 19 million records in a country with 80 millionen people < means: almost every household own a record of him. At least - as his songs are played on the radio - everybody in Germany "heard" of him as his songs are aired since 40+ years. Good for you: As Germany has the third largest music market on this planet - there is still a lot to discover! ... of every music genre! :)

    The polar bear is the heraldic animal of his record label "Grönland Records".
    And the song brings back the normal madness that prevails at his concerts. Everyone can sing along to the songs, he spreads a great atmosphere and his band does the rest.
    Btw. I learned from someone who attended the concert that the wave lasted 15 minutes.
    And on the subject of "no more empty seats in the whole arena": if he were to play in this arena three nights in a row, it would look like this on all three nights. You still have to be very quick if you want to buy tickets through the official channels. And the black market prices for his tickets are twice to three times higher than the official price. On the tour 21 years ago, he could have played twice as many concerts as he did. There's a small catch: he did have chaperones for his children who watched his back, but ultimately he was solely responsible for them. And they were just at the "easy-care age" of thirteen and fifteen (where you never get any stupid ideas).

    This song was the song after "Der Weg", which you also featured in your channel. After singing about the loss, this one is on how to stand up again. At the end the people are going crazy.
    I was one of them in the masses ~50m from the stage. This night was absolutly magical, it was the best concert I was ever in. And I watched Joe Cocker on one of his last gigs and also genesis ...
    The stadium it's in is a football arena "Arena auf Schalke", from the former first division club "FC Schalke 04". It was sold out and ~65k people inside

    Electricity can be said "Elektrizität" but people commonly say "Strom" (like "stream"); "Mensch" ("sch" is pronounced exactly like "sh" in English) is the generic term for "human being", male and female. Herbert is also a popular actor, he was in "Das Boot" ("The Boat"), a well-known movie about a submarine during WWII, and many other TV series and such, often as a villain in cop shows.

    Grönemeyer always brings me back to a better time. I was born in 1997 but my parents (they´ve been at ecxact this concert btw) are huge Grönemeyer fans so I have always known his music. But the best of this is the concert for itself, no smartphone, no one is filming, no freaking live streams on instagram and all this shit. Last time I went to a concert, I got told to stop dancing, cause a roundabout 18 year old girl waanted to film it probably... its so fucked up...
    There are only a few other german artists, that have that status of Herbert Grönemeyer. He´s a huge fucking fish in the lake of german artists. I would say the biggest, but also with his status, you cant reach Rammstein or Scooter in any way.

    You should also do a reaction to Die Toten Hosen, Die Ärzte, Marius Müller Westernhagen, Udo Lindenberg...
    I've been an Element of Crime fan since my youth. The best album for me is still "Try to be Mensch" - it was also the third album I've ever bought (1987), on vinyl of course. My first was The dream of the blue turtles by Sting. I was and am music style fluid.

    its an austrian pub classic about a young man from Fürstenfeld (a small town in austria) that wanted to be a street artist in Vienna.
    Yet he failed to get popular and just wanted to go home to his town.
    Its a song about appreciating your home and a reminder that you should never forget what you home is.

      You are welcome to think otherwise, many people have a different opinion. Many people particularly like Herbert Grönemeyer precisely BECAUSE he openly communicates what he stands for. He grew up in the Ruhr area, where migrant citizens were and are completely normal. And if you're referring to his speech in Vienna: he's right. If politicians can't get their act together to create a climate in which no one is excluded because of their gender, sexual orientation, skin color or origin, we have to create this climate ourselves and show politicians how we imagine living together.
