I grew up in Dusseldorf. Living in Shanghai now. Heard this song in a restaurant last night, shazamed it and was quite surprised to see my hometown's name pop up on my screen. Don't know why it's called Dusseldorf, don't know why I'm telling you this story. Doesn't matter. The song is fire! Been on loop since last night.
I normally do not write such comments. But this song opened me the door to whole new music-world. Since then my live changed a lot and I wouldn`t be the same person if I haven't found this song:) You changed my life!
I thoroughly agree with you there,this beauty of a piece from Teleman is quite something else,very well written,very well played and very well performed,a piece of music that is absolute perfection through and through
I just can't help myself, I've listened to this song about 200 times in the last three days. Everything about this song, video and voice is so indescribable catchy.. can't even put it into words. Great piece of work!
This song have a massive Franz Ferdinand vibe. I don't think comparisons are any good for an artist, but I mean it in the very best way. Bouncy guitars + great lyrics + exquisite harmonies, I love it. Greetings from Russia, would be wonderful to see you someday, Teleman!
I saw them live and everyone went absolutely beserk at the bit towards the end and to top it all off we exited via the fire escape which was very very funny!
I had the word Düsseldorf stuck in my head for the past few days and I just kept saying it and I’m like what even is that, so just a few minutes ago I was like I’m gonna look it up and then this song was one of the top results. And I gotta say I really like this song although I wish that they were a little louder and the instruments were a little quieter but very nice I like👍👍
Don't you want to know why I left you there All alone on the carousel spinning away? Düsseldorf looms in the cold gray light I love everyone that I meet tonight Another grey town in the afternoon Hello to the girl with the yellow balloon I haven't got a place where to lay my hat I long for the five-star life like that [Chorus] She lifts the stylus, drops it down The ice is melting all around Put on, put on your favourite song Put on, put on your favourite song Don't you want to know why I left you there Alone on the carousel spinning away? Another grey town and it's alright I love everyone that I meet tonight [Chorus] She lifts the stylus, drops it down The ice is melting all around Put on, put on your favourite song The girl from Düsseldorf has gone [Bridge with spoken word in German] Willst du nicht wissen, warum ich dich dort zurückgelassen habe? Allein an dem sich wegdrehendem Karussell? Düsseldorf taucht in dem kalten grauen Licht auf Ich liebe jeden den ich heute nacht treffe Noch eine graue Stadt am Nachmittag Hallo an das Mädchen mit dem gelben Luftballon Ich habe keinen Platz an den ich meinen Hut legen kann Ich sehne mich nach... [Chorus] She lifts the stylus, drops it down The ice is melting all around Put on, put on your favorite song The girl from Düsseldorf has gone Put on, put on your favorite song Put on, put on your favorite song Put on, put on your favorite song The girl from Düsseldorf has gone
Maravella de canço. Des de Catalunya veiem un programa de la tv española titulat "turismo rural en el mundo" i he descobert en la seva sintonia aquesta música espectacular!🎉🎉😊
I've first listened to this song the day i broke up with my girlfriend of 2.5 years. Since then it belongs in a speciel shelf in my heart. Thank you for this!
This album was amazing. It's not often that I listen to an album all the way through the first time. But I listened to it 3 times in one sitting. It's really well put together.
i remember hearing love in a trash can by the ravonetts 10 years ago and iv never forgotten that moment, now 10 years later the same feeling, cheers guys what a fucking killer song.

My wife and I have been watching Jools Holland show for many years. Saw you for the first time tonight. First time in a very long time that I have rewound and re-played a song 7 times in a row. Going to find out what else you have done. Fabulous subtle harmonic catchy germanic/russian rock song. Absolutely loved this!!!! Fab!
i remember i downloaded 23 floors up before going to a really dangerous place alone without any internet or nothing and i was at this waterfall and that song played and that made me less scared from that day. good band !
Amazing! I've found this song many years ago, yet this is the first watching the video. I've always been curious about the meaning behind the lyrics... This song always had somewhat of a mysterious feeling to it for me
Saw them two nights ago in Exeter, amazing live band and great songs, also saw pete and the pirates previously in a very small tent in the rain at a festival, a memorable gig. so underated !
This song literally changed my life. I heard the DJ playing it in my favorite bar in Athens, GR, and since then, all my days changed. Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
For those asking about the text spoken in German, it is the first two verses the song starts with (but in German, obviously). I know I've gotten some of the words wrong, but it roughly goes like this: Willst du nicht wissen warum ich du dar zurückgelassen haben? Allein am die sich wechdrehende carrousel? Dusseldorf taucht in einem kalte graue licht auf Ich liebe diejenigen die icht heute nacht treffe Noch eine (grossen?) Stadt am Nachmittag Hab er an das Mädchen mit dem gelben Luftballon Ich habe keinen Platz wo ich meinen Hut legen kann Ich sehne mich nach.. .(speech drowned out by the music). If anyone has a suggestion for improvement, don't hesitate!

I can speak the English, here is a perfect translation: will you not know why I let you back there? Alone on the away turning carousel? Dusseldorf appears in a cold grey light. I love everyone whom I meet today night. Another grey city on afternoon, hello girl with the yellow baloon, I have no place where I can put my hat, I wanna have...

I think I just did

Don't know why it's called Dusseldorf, don't know why I'm telling you this story. Doesn't matter. The song is fire! Been on loop since last night.
Because of Kraftwerk?
How's it in Shanghai?
Das gefällt mir! Herzliche Grüße aus Düsseldorf.
"Düsseldorf taucht in dem kalten, grauen Licht auf..."😅 Echt cool, das Lied. Hier DUS.
Never mind the Buzzcocks, Pete and the Pirates..clocked ya straight away!!
Last November I met my love in Düsseldorf ... Now, this song will always remind me of our first encounters :) Thank you!
Incredibly underrated, this is a clear example of quality over quantity
You tell me dude, nice attidude. Is gestapo electric.
I normally do not write such comments. But this song opened me the door to whole new music-world. Since then my live changed a lot and I wouldn`t be the same person if I haven't found this song:) You changed my life!
wow that's so cool, thanks for sharing that!
Music is powerful stuff.
Wow!

How does this not even have 1 million views? It should be closer to 300 million.
First number: ✅
Second number: (coming soon)
I just can't help myself, I've listened to this song about 200 times in the last three days. Everything about this song, video and voice is so indescribable catchy.. can't even put it into words. Great piece of work!
It's incredible. For me it's all about the drums, it's like the backbone of this band. Tik tik tik tik tik tik tik tik tik
Its one of those songs that, had it been done by the Beatles, would be one of the biggest songs of all time. Hopefully these guys can get there.
I love how they included the camera guy!
Die anderen sind auch lecker...
This song have a massive Franz Ferdinand vibe. I don't think comparisons are any good for an artist, but I mean it in the very best way. Bouncy guitars + great lyrics + exquisite harmonies, I love it. Greetings from Russia, would be wonderful to see you someday, Teleman!
You're right. Привет из Казани!
I think; this song includes metronomy and white lies vibes too.
It reminds me of PinkFrost from the Chills
underrated band.
I saw them live and everyone went absolutely beserk at the bit towards the end and to top it all off we exited via the fire escape which was very very funny!
When the beat starts i have to move my body in a very odd way ... and it feels great.
I had the word Düsseldorf stuck in my head for the past few days and I just kept saying it and I’m like what even is that, so just a few minutes ago I was like I’m gonna look it up and then this song was one of the top results. And I gotta say I really like this song although I wish that they were a little louder and the instruments were a little quieter but very nice I like👍👍
Just here to timestamp this mad guitar part starting from 1:13. I love it.
Oh yeah! This out of tune phrase is as weird as magical. Reminds me of Joey Santiago of Pixies!
Mr Alex Hurst is the greatest educator to ever set foot on this planet.
Don't you want to know why I left you there
All alone on the carousel spinning away?
Düsseldorf looms in the cold gray light
I love everyone that I meet tonight
Another grey town in the afternoon
Hello to the girl with the yellow balloon
I haven't got a place where to lay my hat
I long for the five-star life like that
[Chorus]
She lifts the stylus, drops it down
The ice is melting all around
Put on, put on your favourite song
Put on, put on your favourite song
Don't you want to know why I left you there
Alone on the carousel spinning away?
Another grey town and it's alright
I love everyone that I meet tonight
[Chorus]
She lifts the stylus, drops it down
The ice is melting all around
Put on, put on your favourite song
The girl from Düsseldorf has gone
[Bridge with spoken word in German]
Willst du nicht wissen, warum ich dich dort zurückgelassen habe?
Allein an dem sich wegdrehendem Karussell?
Düsseldorf taucht in dem kalten grauen Licht auf
Ich liebe jeden den ich heute nacht treffe Noch eine graue Stadt am Nachmittag
Hallo an das Mädchen mit dem gelben Luftballon
Ich habe keinen Platz an den ich meinen Hut legen kann
Ich sehne mich nach...
[Chorus]
She lifts the stylus, drops it down
The ice is melting all around
Put on, put on your favorite song
The girl from Düsseldorf has gone Put on, put on your favorite song
Put on, put on your favorite song
Put on, put on your favorite song
The girl from Düsseldorf has gone

When you literally can't stop putting on your favourite song
Perfectly put
First three songs of this album on hard rotation
I've first listened to this song the day i broke up with my girlfriend of 2.5 years. Since then it belongs in a speciel shelf in my heart. Thank you for this!
Still got that “Pete and the Pirates” vibe that I absolutely love. Toms vocals are always original and distinct, love it 👍🏻
❤
when you're looking for an old classical composer from some hundreds of years ago and this is what you get, not too disappointed :)
perfect!
I really adore this song I’ve absolutely no idea why but I always have a job to play it just once❤️☺️
I love how this tune starts out fairly mellow and chilled but by the end the distortion pedal's been stamped on!
Charlie Heaton brought me here, stayed for the music. Better start freeing more space on my iPhone because I need to hear more of this.
Wunderbar...Ekstase pur...GÄNSEHAUT
This song reminds me so much of Supertramp, and I love it!
Tomorrow i’ll leave for Düsserdolf and it will be my first travel alone…maybe listening this song brings me luck!🍀
I wish I was in this band
So relieved to see most of the guys from Pete and the Pirates are still making great music!
This album was amazing. It's not often that I listen to an album all the way through the first time. But I listened to it 3 times in one sitting. It's really well put together.

This is amazing! I just can't stop listening to this!
Amo sus canciones, saludos de Sudamérica ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Tienen un gran ritmo, gracias por compartir su arte ♥️🥳
Just adore this band and this song ❤

absolutely the greatest band of the 2010s, Brilliant Sanity is a perfect record and Breakfast + Family of Aliens are pretty fantastic too
Yes, I am putting on my favorite song in a forever loop; everything about this song is just awesome!
And once again: Danke, radioeins!

Ditto !!!!
Poshcat Ltd

not to be pedantic, but its kraftwork and Gerry Newman
Seen on Jools, best song for ages it is a joy to listen to. Great band will defo go to see these guys
err... here because I was searching for Telemann

YT algorithm is staggeringly clever

good band !
Absolute class - been following you guys since Pete and The Pirates
Cheers to the youtube suggestions and introducing me to such a great song I would have never found otherwise
Best song I've heard in f#**n ages. Brilliant!!!!
Amazing! I've found this song many years ago, yet this is the first watching the video. I've always been curious about the meaning behind the lyrics... This song always had somewhat of a mysterious feeling to it for me
Found this through the show Lovesick on Netflix, great song
Fantastic track!
just watched these guys on Joole's Holland... awesome
Absolute best tune this year, Jools can pick em
its like a Wes Anderson film hahahah I love it ;)♥♥
What a tune.....utterly brilliant
I´ve just discovered this amazing band like 4 months ago, When I watched Lovesick. Great music! Cheers from Perú!
This song reminds me Altstadt and Königsallee.
My friend is from Düsseldorf if she ever sees this I miss you so much girl and we need to meet soon again!!
Saw them two nights ago in Exeter, amazing live band and great songs, also saw pete and the pirates previously in a very small tent in the rain at a festival, a memorable gig. so underated !

Version Originale k
I like so much this song .I listened many time. ❤
ta kolezanka od czytania tekstu jest boska!
Agree Amanda, best tune I've heard this year. Jools can pick em.
reminds me of craftwerk or Gary numsn mixed with a indie guitar riff and artistic lyrics similar to Franz ferdinand. anyway. great song and band!!
This is a very quirky, brilliant music video. Love the song too. Very well done to everyone.
merci Le petit Journal ! :)

gig of 2016. sugarmill, hanley. nic andrews (moscow front man), oscar, then these guys. stunning
best track I've heard this year!
Great song! Saw these guys supporting Maximo Park a couple of years ago....they knocked me out (and I'd never even heard of them).
I really love this song and the singers voice reminds me do the singer from Sparks
I used to live in Dusseldorf a very long time ago 😃
Beautiful, thank you for sharing.
i love teleman!
Greetings from Düsseldorf :)
