NashörnerRhinos

Nashörner means "rhinos" in German. It's a wonderfully unexpected and vivid word to find in a pop song, making it instantly memorable and intriguing.

In the lyrics, the singer describes their crush with the line: "Nachts gehst du Nashörner streicheln im Zoo" (At night you go pet rhinos in the zoo). This surreal and playful image perfectly captures the unique, adventurous, and slightly eccentric personality of the person the song is about, making you want to know more about this fascinating character and the story behind them.

“Immer Wenn Wir Uns Sehen” is a love-struck daydream put to music. Every time the singer locks eyes with the other person, their mind spins, their heart freezes, and words simply refuse to come out. The lyrics capture that electric moment when you first realise someone has turned your world upside-down: knees go weak, cheeks turn red, and even breathing feels optional.

What makes this crush special is how different and wonderfully odd the other person is. She paints train cars with lipstick, hijacks a motorbike for a midnight ride, and treats every day like her birthday. These playful images show a free spirit whose confidence glows like a colourful flower on a grey street. The song celebrates both the rush of infatuation and the magnetic pull of individuality—reminding us that the quirkiest people often steal our hearts the fastest.

LEA (born Lea-Marie Becker) is a German singer-songwriter from Kassel, known for her warm, piano-driven pop and her honest, diary-like lyrics. She grew up in a musical home, started playing piano at six, and was writing her own songs by the age of eleven, before studying music in Hannover and playing the city's bars at night.

Her breakthrough came in 2016, when she toured as a backing singer for Mark Forster and released her debut album Vakuum. She has since become one of Germany's most-streamed pop artists, and Zu Dir, co-written with Mark Forster and released on her 2019 album Zwischen den Zeilen, is one of her best-loved songs.
