    The fact that a video from a 90's ska-punk band made it onto trending in 2020 just makes me smile.

    I was 16 when Nena's version hit the air waves in Australia. Fast forward to early 2000's, I was a first time parent and heard Goldfinger's version on the radio and thought yeah, great cover version of the original. Fast forward to the present, working from home due to COVID-19 and I come across this video during my lunch break. Thank you Goldfinger for making my day :).

    I used to be a member of the Pyrotechnics Guild International. Once a year they have a week long convention and we get to experience new technologies and methods of displaying (class B) fireworks. Most of the displays have music playing while the shows go on. I think it was the bluegrass pyrotechnics guild while they were shooting their show this song was playing and I was blown away when during the last chorus somehow 99 very bright red lamps appeared in the sky it was amazing, so now every time I hear this song I remember that night fondly. Hearing and seeing these guys perform this song and remembering that night moves me very deeply, I do so live in gratitude for the efforts and talents of real musicians like these. THANK YOU!

      The original lyrics told a much better story. This is a translation of the final German verse:
      99 years of war
      , left no place for winners. War ministers don't exist anymore, and not one jet fighter. Today I stroll around, see the world in ruins. I've found a balloon. I think about you and let it fly.

      I grabbed it off of Napster years (and years... And years...) back, so I wouldn't be surprised (I only knew the live version of Nofx The Brews when my punk in drublic copy was... Wrong lol)
