Genau Jetzt (which means Exactly Now) is Nena’s vibrant reminder that life’s perfect timing is rarely clear. With the playful refrain “Vielleicht ist es zu früh, vielleicht ist es zu spät, vielleicht ist es genau jetzt” (Maybe it’s too early, maybe it’s too late, maybe it’s right now), she captures that jittery moment when we wonder whether to leap, hold back, or walk away. The song flashes through snapshots of two people who can be united as one heart or split into two opinions, showing how quickly Hallo can flip to Bye bye.
Rather than giving a tidy answer, Nena celebrates uncertainty: tomorrow is unknown, so choose right now. Trip and fall? Get up and keep running. Friendships can blossom or fade in a heartbeat, and that fragile instant is where possibility lives. Packed with upbeat energy and a seize-the-day spirit, the track urges listeners to trust the present moment, breathe it in, and dance forward before doubt says it’s too late.
