SONG MEANING

Wanda’s ‘Nach Hause Gehen’ is the anthem for anyone who has ever felt out of place at a loud party and secretly counted the minutes until they could grab their coat. The singer drifts through a glittering crowd of “schönen Leuten” and shiny dreams, yet every new face and fantasy only reminds him how empty he feels inside. Surrounded by couples with kids and friends flaunting money and travel plans, he wavers between bragging about his own cash and confessing he doesn’t even know where he is. The pounding chorus – “Können wir bitte bald nach Hause gehen?” – sounds less like boredom and more like a desperate plea for comfort, safety and a hand to hold.

Beneath the catchy “Bidi bidi” chants lies a tug-of-war between euphoria and melancholy. One moment he claims, “Mir geht’s so gut,” the next he admits, “Mir geht’s so schlecht.” Time seems to freeze, and a dull ache grows in all the wrong places whenever he tries to reach the person he longs for. Going nach Hause isn’t just about leaving the club, it’s about escaping the shallow chase for status and returning to something real – a place, a person, a feeling of belonging. The song turns a simple question – “Can we go home?” – into a relatable cry for intimacy in a world that never stops spinning.
