The Movie Buff: The song "Kino" is essentially about one's love of going to the movies.

Apocalypse How
 Nena (Music) / int_91e894b4
comment
Apocalypse How: Class 2. "99 Luftballons" tells the story of two kids who buy 99 red balloons from a party store, inflate them, and set them free to the wind. Government radars proceed to misread them as international spy drones, and accusations are thrown from country to country over whose they belong to, resulting in a war that ends up wiping out most of humanity and ruins nearly every city in the world.

Shout-Out

comment
Shout-Out: In both the original and English versions of "99 Luftballons", the gung-ho jet fighter pilots think/act like they're Captain Kirk, with tragic consequences.

Lyrical Dissonance
 Nena (Music) / int_dbfd6b8
comment
Lyrical Dissonance: "99 Luftballons" is a catchy, danceable Post-Punk song about the military bombing a small town after mistaking some balloons for bogies. Kerner jokes that this was why the English version she recorded wasn't as successful.
