   Holy shit! I've listened to that song many times (both German and English   
   versions, although I don't barely understand any German at all the   
   original language version does have more of a bop to it!) and clearly have   
   never listened to it remotely hard enough to pick up on that - I've always   
   just thought it was a lovely bouncy party song!
