Music video

The music video was directed by Olaf Heine. In the video, different men "talk" about women. The band drives on the beach of Saint Peter Sued in a car with a loudspeaker on the roof, gathering male followers, till they see a woman on the road in front of them. The band members then get out of the car and go with the mass apparently to say "hello" to her.
