DBD: Days like this - Die Toten Hosen

The Toten Hosen will be 30 years old this year. The new studio album "Ballast der Republik" is out today, a double CD containing the anniversary album entitled "The Spirits We Called". The bonus CD contains a number of cover versions. Highlight: Die Toten Hosen cover Die Ärzte! Among the 15 tracks is a version of "Schrei nach Liebe" sung by Campino. Campino comments on the current single “Days like these” as follows:

The song is also our reaction to all of the nostalgia that hits you on the eve of an anniversary like our 30th birthday. We have always been a band that lives in the present and looks ahead. Ultimately, the aim is also to celebrate the moment. Just like you go to a concert or party with a friend and know that this is an evening, a moment that may not come back like this. Such a situation describes the song.

Die Toten Hosen // "Days Like This" [Official Music Video]

I've been waiting for this day for weeks
and dance for joy across the asphalt
As if it were a rhythm, as if there was a song
That pulls me on and on through the streets
Come towards you to pick you up, as agreed
At the same time, at the same meeting point, as last time

Through the crowd, the crowd
Let's take the well-known path
Along the streets to the Rhine terraces
Over the bridges to the music
Where everything is loud, where everyone is ready to go nuts
Where the others wait to start with us and leave

On days like these, one wishes for infinity
On days like these, we still have forever
I wish for infinity

This is forever, forever for today
We don't stand still for a whole night
Come on I'll carry you through the people
Do not be afraid, I will take care of you
We let ourselves drift, dive under, swim with the flow
Spin our circles, don't come down any more, are weightless

On days like these, one wishes for infinity
On days like these, we still have forever
On that night of nights that promises so much
Let's experience the best, there is no end in sight

No end in sight
No end in sight
No end in sight

On days like these, one wishes for infinity
On days like these, we still have forever
On that night of nights that promises so much
Let's experience the best, there is no end in sight
Let's experience the best and there is no end in sight
No end in sight
