[cartier557]

[cartier557]

[coralbay00]

good in both languages. shows her talent and sexiness despite lack of the razor!?

[Appclypse]

I assume the "red ballons" in the sky are symbol for nuclear mushroom clouds? I like the upbeat song and disturbing lyrics haha makes it interesting to listen to

[2ndRCHAret]

@Appclypse actually it's about a real event from back in the late 70's

[Appclypse]

@2ndRCHAret What event? you'll have to elaborate. Most people i've heard talk about the cold war

[misscazzt]

Better than a WAR EH

[bencawley1]

English way better. Germans should stick to making cars which they do very well if you dont mind me saying werent bad at killing jews either

[NAHHG]

@bencawley1 LMFAO!!!! XD yh, i suppose if they didn't make cars or kill jews, they would be a waste of space....

[FAILtropica]

@NAHHG fuck you rasict bitch

[SuperAnon9001]

@bencawley1

I'm English and even I don't find your LOL SHOCK HUMOUR XD 13 year old racism funny... German version is superior.

[Appclypse]

@bencawley1 you really are a moron.......

[PsychedelicPandaa]

This version just sounds weird after you've heard the German version. Not bad, but I feel the German version is way superior.

[SbCaviar]

Nena is the German way of saying Joan Jett... and we like it

[MegaBoben]

i like the song they did for xbox. lol

[NOKIA49999]

Cold War song, on a NATO training cam, west germany :)

[RodrigoPopTechno]

me quedo con la canción alemana... tiene más ritmo

[vbandersson]

love her dance on the stage (Y)

[vadteen]

no.2 until now it was smells like teen spirit nirvana

and not tokio hotel !

[lhadylila]

WOW! This was no. 2 in MTV (before)?! Finally! MTV chose a better song for no. 2! Now, all there's left to put in no.1 is Tokio Hotel!

[stickgore]

wow shes good at both languages :P

[raikiry100]

german version got her started m8, no german version = no english version ... think man think !

[Jangocat]

Some might like the German version better, but the English version is what made her money and made her famous in the early days of MTV...

[Joypadjunkginger]

"This is what we've waited for

this is it boys this is war!"

Gives meh chills everytime :D

[shadra86]

I like this, but I have to admit that I prefer the german version

[GDrift77]

[dulceadicciondeamor]

Es una de las mejores canciones de aquel tiempo

es genial :D

[Mariovskiiiiiiii]

ahahh no way ... this version is as sweet as the original song

[MegaGooglyEye]

The German version is much better though I don't understand the language.

[MrRippJay]

[coral7799]

i like this song 99 red balloons lol so does my mum

[Mysh666]

<3!

[lol1143]

You pretty much know you're fucking up when Germany of all countries is telling you off for acting stupid

[MillionBartek]

RED balloons? The proper translation is AIR balloons!

[WishedForWishes]

i could finally understand xD

[DarthIvan3]

yeah, the german version IS better than this one, but we can't say that this version is bad, because it's not. and besides, we can't expect this version to be better than the original, can we?

[NACHOLAGAFFE]

Iconic video from a crazy time.

[hasbroke]

english version is better! in german the video looks pathetic

[videocritic2463]

sure maybe the german version is better for those who understand german

[theouf]

@videocritic2463

even for those who don't understand she's way better

[lonSinceInsane]

@videocritic2463 heck i dont understand german and like that version best. 

[sonicismybrawler]

@videocritic2463 It actually flows better because the song was designed for that language. In fact (As Im sure you know) The actual version of this song doesnt even specify color. It was added to the English version for syllable fillage.

[HeartagramGirlx]

The german version is 100times better

[videocritic2463]

i cant speak or understand german so good so i play this version instead

[pauline1102]

It sound surpricing good in German too! The english isn't hat much better! I think!:-)

[LameSkaterTM]

[BlackAnnabella]

OMG how old is this video?

[Bivalvinchen]

Man muss eben doch nicht alles immer auf englisch übersetzen, manchmal ist das Original dochschöner...

[SamTHfan]

wtf? o_____O was? nena english? xD baddd

[EZR09]

I love that song!

[thefruchtkuchen]

The german version is much better.

[Pankulives]

So Its Germany telling Usa and Ussr to stop.

Cause something dumb may happen and we all die.

Now I'm sad :(

[Floptheclown]

its actually a kinda creepy song when you analyze the lyrics...

[TRELLTRON]

@Floptheclown You mean listen to them? XD

And original version reigns supreme

[1xxapplexx3]

[xaniathecoolest]

I love this song! SO much.  I just moved to Berlin, so I gotta listen to the German one now.

My best friend is doing a music vid project too, search "Toby-Wan Kenobi" if you wanna.

[ImWalkingOnSunshine4]

The english text is so different from the german! :D

[fruechtchen3xbla]

@ImWalkingOnSunshine4

[abortiongonewrong]

Germans areFREAKS

But Nena is a lady

I have seen German porn that would turn you WHITE!!!!!!!!

[ImWalkingOnSunshine4]

@abortiongonewrong You´re a freak!

[bonniebaby78]

Wow...there are two sides to every question my friend. WORLD PEACE!!!

[fiscusd]

Many times songs don't translate well. Making the translated words work well in the song without losing the meaning is tough, but this is done extremely well.

Thanks for posting the English version.

[raulitogr]

mierda que cancion mas buena.....y mas la vocalista

[nuwavevidspud]

Both versions of this song are equally good.

[dlocc112]

german way better

[sancombru]

@dlocc112 The only problem with that 1 is that only germans know what the hell it's about! XD

[gummygobbler1]

I aim to please - I don't like foul language though haha

[mohaha1223]

the English version sucks the orginal is a lot better

[edwardisnotreal]

goldfinger minced this song up into 99 tiny pieces, put it in a food processor, put it the microwave, took it out, then published it to the public, the public now calls it SHIT.

[AKstraightedge]

@edwardisnotreal you are wrong sir.

[umahuma4]

oh come on, its not half bad if you give it a chance. Unfortunatly you Cum and go just like all of the sex you had, dont both following up incase shes pregneant.

[gummygobbler1]

Would u all just FECK OFF and enjoy the video xx

The song is about a nuclear apocalypse that destroys everything we know on this planet -

[pyronathanpyro]

wtf i like the smoke bomb and the song

[xThunderxWolfx]

Y'know, i'd fuck her even with the under arm hair.

[uberari]

[zman8656]

[MrSAKUBOI]

[CallMeCarrot]

[PageLaRaine]

[isaza84]

yeah! the german version is better! ; )

[razzmatazz4543]

The original is always the best but this is good to i still think the german version is best. The 80's are the best in my opinion.

[fivethreeone]

99 dreams i have had....

thanks for uploading!

[tracfone567]

One Word: AWESOME!

I miss the 80s :(

[lisasboogies]

i don't know ...sounds like they make fun of the big guns...signed, a citizen of U.S.A.

[Moatw001]

I dont understand the german version but I like it better :)

[antoniomontana82]

WOAH,......... I understand German now. CRAZY.

[ShadowDon50]

I got only one problem with this song, its so damm anti regan and pacifist

[Mygoodmusicchoices]

uh...well it's not anti Reagan, it's actually against the cold war and all. She's not saying "Oh, I hate Reagan", she's making a point of what the cold war was like.

[CelestialWoodway]

I miss the 80's

[Rockerboi420]

you dont music like that anymore :) the 80's is classic

[mcrvt]

One of the best ever and she is hot as hell still!!

[misscreative294]

wow this song reminds me of bill kaulitz.......xDD no reason

[GoldenGirl1314]

maybe because Bill has stated that his biggest musical influence is Nena?

[dixon3chicks]

hairy armpits!

[GennosukeKoga]

leather pants never looked so good : /

[billj500]

For a song originally sung entirely in German to go #1 in America you know it has to have a great beat, melody and hook. If this one doesn't make you tap your toe something is wrong with you!

[50N1C]

funny thing is im doin that right now

[retroguyguyguy2]

best one hit wonder ever

[mcrvt]

You just might be right!

[guitarfreak186]

i love this song !

[Jaydubbs02]

German version is better

[Blutelfgardist1]

yeah MUCH!!!

i love the german language...!!!

But english is good too

[BenPerlis]

[mcrvt]

[thxoneonethreeeight]

[boxesofstuff]

(i love you sweet english) FUCK GERMAN!

[gunslinger937]

Well Fuck You Then Mother Fucker

[StompinDino]

Why the hate against German? It's a wonderful language, you know.

[DPAkers]

I love her now that Bill Kaulitz says he loves her! lol she's good.

[Whoa0Charlie0Brown]

[gunslinger937]

What Are You Talking About

[teenboy77]

GOLD FINGERS VERSION IS SO MUCK BETTER

[Miccioncina89]

[Evablazin05]

[gunslinger937]

[Whoa0Charlie0Brown]

o, ty for clearing that up

[warurger92]

thats sinceless^^ I'm German

[nmsballer35]

2:05

[way2muchenergy]

Ya know this song is actually about the cold war, the balloons being mistaken for nuclear bombs

[GrimRejoice]

of course, they went down to the store and bought a package of nuclear bombs with the money they had.

[gunslinger937]

Kiene It ist About WWIII

[Whoa0Charlie0Brown]

this guy said it was about the Cold war between Germany and America

[gunslinger937]

It Is About WWIII

[fabt1m]

It's about the Cold war.

[gunslinger937]

No It's About The World War III not The Cold War

[fabt1m]

"99 Luftballons" is a Cold War-era protest song by the German singer Nena. Originally sung in German, it was later re-recorded in English as "99 Red Balloons".

Wikipedia.

[illgoma]

Oh, of course that source is reliable, since its not like anyone can edit it...

But seriously though, I do believe your right.

[gunslinger937]

It's About World WarIII Look At The Word God

[KarenEng]

I love this song! ;)

[KingBlade15]

99 luftballoons

[WatchesVideosOnUtube]

i dont like her look at 21 seconds

[blackskullbass]

Andreas on 2:05 lmao

[WatchesVideosOnUtube]

how do you make that control point where i click on the number and i go to that point of the vide.

example: 2:05

[WatchesVideosOnUtube]

i like the way she looks

if you ask me goldfinger is waay betta

but, i wish he didnt have to sing som german lyrics

[confusedcockney]

its the earlier version isnt there any where on youtube i can find the later version?

[Nivelso]

i loveeeee nenaaa yeahhhh

[mannyane]

99 reasons to smile

[kohan69]

Seinfield was like a decade later!

conspicary?

[mcr500]

luftballons means air balloons Red is Rot.

nice song

I like the German version better i can barlly understand it but it is better.

[romanerdstrom]

I think they just added the word "red" to the English version so that it would fit the amount of beats required.

[weeman5872]

they changed the lyrics in engish cos otherwise it wouldn't rhyme :P

[gymdogmiles]

yes it would rhyme if it had "air" and it would also have the correct number of beats so it doesn't really make sense why they changed it
