Music Video - Halt dich an mir fest by Revolverheld

Remember how I said not all German music I knew was party music? Prime example right here! Here is a love song called "Halt dich an mir fest," which means "Hold on to me tight" or "Cling to me." It's a pretty basic music video, but Johannes Strate's and Marta Jandova's voices are quite good, and it's a pretty emotional song.

As one of the top commentators on the YouTube page says--and I wholeheartedly agree--this song proves that German isn't as harsh or angry-sounding as all of the movies and memes lead us to believe. It can actually be quite soft and beautiful.
