THE FORMULA EINS MOVIE
Forward, forward now!
Fit!
Expulsion!
Where are you going?
Stop now!
- Away from the TV!
- We're watching football!
Good day, welcome!
Apparently there is football fever-
-but for those of you who think it's
boring with 22 people running on a lawn...
Here we have: Formula One!
With us tonight: Re-Flex,
Flirts, Meat Loaf, Pia Zadora-
-Falco, Katrina and the
Waves, Limahl, Die Toten Hosen-
-and finally - a big surprise.
The party on the left
is the party on the right
If there ain't no choice,
then there ain't no fight
There's too much ego
and not enough to eat
They read between the words,
they read between the lines
They see everything, but
they can't see that they're blind
You talk about this
and they talk about that
But talk is talk
and facts are facts
Sit down, sit up,
it's your situation
What we want is participation
Sit down, sit up,
it's your situation
What we need is participation
Get behind me
Come on, get behind me
How much longer must
we wait For you to realize
We have got to put things straight
'Cause we're running out of time
The leaders of the world
should hide their heads in shame
From cabinet to cabaret,
it's the price of fame
Pollution in the air,
pollution in our minds
But what we all want is
to get some peace of mind
We're stuck to our TV's,
we're glued to our seats
We like to watch the news
'cause we're addicted to repeats
So put your money
where your mouth is
Put your fingers in the sockets
Wipe that smile off your face
And take your hands
out of your pockets
Sit down, sit up,
it's your situation
What we want is participation
You fugitive!
What we need is participation
The second one,
a little to the left.
Get behind me
Come on, get behind me
How much longer must
we wait For you to realize
We have got to put things straight
'Cause we're running out of time
How much longer must
we wait For you to realize
We have got to put things straight
'Cause we're running out of time
It doesn't matter It
doesn't matter to me
But if no one
cares then I despair
More smoke.
Say what you will
And say what you like
But the question
is who will stand
It's way too much.
Start the wind machine.
We are the group of groups, Die
Toten Hosen! We have to go in!
We're going into
Formula One, now directly.
How much longer must
we wait For you to realize
We have got to
put things straight
Stevie, have you
seen Trisha from Flirts?
They are due up in a quarter of
an hour and the third girl is missing.
But the other two,
they know right?
- Now be nice, they'll be up in a quarter of an hour.
- Okay, okay, I'll take care of it.
CASTING
Hello?
Hello? Hello?!
Oh... Do you have a
record you want me to hear?
- No disc, but a fantastic demo cassette.
- Sorry, I'm sorry.
For our tips, we only use music that
has already been released. Excuse me.
Can't you make
a small exception?
I'm sorry, but it doesn't work.
Thanks for nothing.
- What's your name?
- Are you proud of this?
- You can get into trouble if you don't let us in.
- I think so too.
We're done hours late, but the
third girl from Flirts... Shall we wait?
Absolutely not. Take any
girl, get a cleaning lady!
A cleaning lady?
Maid... My cleaning
lady quit last week.
But heaven! Maybe you can help
us out of a little predicament, okay?
I don't care if you
can sing, it's playback.
- I can sing!
- All the better, just sing something!
No one can hear it anyway.
- Michael, is that okay?
- Okay, but we only film her in full body.
Quiet in the studio.
The band is rolling!
A TV studio! Hey guys!
Where is the boss?
Die Toten Hosen is coming!
- Don't you have anything to do?
- The nose! The nose.
Silence! Get out of here!
- Silence!
- Guys, be sensible.
The boss is in a bad mood
today. Come back later, okay?
Do you always look like that?
How so?
I found her! She went on the
movie tour, she was in the submarine.
Good, then we can finally
start! Remove the other girl.
I get it! It's okay.
Hey Stevie, archival
copy- the cassette is gone.
- Do you have another one?
- One moment.
Do you want to do me a favor?
Can you listen to my demo tape?
There it is!
Hello! Stop, you miffo!
- The band is rolling.
- No, stop, stop! My demo...
Dancing madly backwards
Dancing on a sea of air
Dancing madly backwards
Dancing on a sea of air
You can love if you want to love
You can fight if
push comes to shove
You can run if the
going gets tough
Or you can say that
you've had enough
Don't ever try to change me
'Cause you will surely find me
Dancing madly backwards
Waiter Stevie!
- Sad to have to walk, huh?
- Stop. You will get your money.
Not good enough. I am
sticking to our agreement.
Don't forget the interest rate!
That's the thank
you! I'm too kind.
- But to the point, have you thought about it?
- It's nothing to think about.
I say no, my
record label is okay.
With us as your manager, you'll be
the biggest within a year, guaranteed!
Dancing on a sea of air
Don't ever try to change me
'Cause you will surely find me
Dancing madly backwards
Dancing on a sea of air
- I won't change my mind.
- You are making a big mistake.
Damn you...
- Nice tail.
- Well, not bad.
For her I would release a
sold-out concert in the Olympiahalle.
Tell me, do you have
something against me?
Why did you do that?
- Why did you destroy my tape?
- Me? Your cassette?
My cassette! Do you understand
what music means to me?
Do you have any idea what it's like to keep
asking people if they've heard my demo?
No, it's clear you don't get it!
You hippie!
Did I understand correctly..?
Did he destroy your demo?
Yes. He played over the tape.
Luckily, I have a copy.
I'm a record producer.
What was on the demo?
Music, of course. Unfortunately,
I can't play it for you right now.
Interesting. Maybe we
can talk more about this?
In this industry, an
eye for talent is needed.
I'm sure you have something.
Take for example the guy standing
next to me, that came from the studio.
When I got to know him, he was playing in
a Bavarian rock band, but now he's on top.
Huh? Do you have
a contract with him?
No, not yet. But I
think he will sign soon.
I have an idea and
you can help me with it.
- How then? I don't even know him.
- It doesn't matter.
He is in Munich to record an album right now,
but in the evenings he is always at the O2.
And what will there and I do?
Oh, please. Have a
drink at the bar with him.
A friendly dance, you
have fun... The night is long.
You want to get
somewhere, don't you?
I think we have mis-
understood each other, Jim.
I wanted a chance,
but not at any price.
Wait a minute -
you passed the test!
Talent alone is not enough.
It depends on the character.
So I test the clients before
I become their manager.
- That didn't seem like a test.
- Well, what was it then?
I just want to protect myself.
Character, that's my motto. Character!
- Whoops.
- You again?
Dad?
Dad, are you home?
Yes, come to the kitchen!
- This is Kai, remember?
- Hey Kai.
- Are you coming from the factory?
- The garage, dad.
You who took your
matriculation exam...
I was at Formula One
today. I feel that I will succeed!
- Yes, I hope so.
- Has mom told you when she's coming home?
Yes, there is a postcard there.
So if I want to retrieve
data, should i press RAM?
No, Mr. Lehmann.
First of all... You start
with the password.
Write this: E = mc^2
And now we state the question.
So typical mom!
She has been completely
changed by the cure.
- And she hopes it will happen to you.
- She thinks I'm old-fashioned, I know.
Cousin, please dad. Look
at yourself! The clothes!
I am making an effort to
learn about the progress!
I'll take it. Wait a minute...
- Oh, what a careless mistake. 17 billion!
- Mr. Lehmann. You have to wait until it says "Ready".
- So?
- It's very simple.
- Is it?
- Yes. Super easy.
- Bye, Dad!
- Hello then.
- I'm going out again.
- Yes.
- Suzy!
- How did it go in the studio?
I went there and I
thought I'd fix it myself...
- Did you meet Ingolf?
- Yes, but only quickly.
how is he Kind? Or
am I just imagining it?
I just had a quick chat with him. Get it,
there was a miffo that ruined my demo!
Next time I'll come along.
- Then I'll get an autograph from Ingolf.
- You're nagging.
Wait a little.
Are you going to pay?
DM 17.50.
- I only have 100. Do you have gear on it?
- Unfortunately, unfortunately...
Now so.
And here, 30 You'll
get the rest in five.
Suzy!
Do you know who that was? A
guy who wants to hear my demo!
- We're going to his apartment.
- Are you crazy?
- He probably wants to put on something other than music.
- Do you think I'm stupid?
I'm coming along. If there are
two of us, nothing can happen.
The better! But you have
to handle him yourself.
Come on!
Then we're done!
Hello?
Jim, do you remember the little
brunette from the studio this afternoon?
Can you imagine, she
wants to get to know you!
She is waiting for
you in my apartment.
Yes. Consider our contract.
We'll talk about it tomorrow.
Refinement. Have so much fun!
Tell me, are you
sure he is honest?
You and your paranoia.
He just wants to
listen to my demo.
I think he's calling
to say he's late.
- Yes, hello?
- Hello Tina, this is Stevie.
I don't know if you remember me, I'm the
one who happened to play over your demo.
Are you calling to say that?
Yes. No, I'm calling to say
that Jim is going to cheat on you.
- I can handle myself, okay?
- Don't hang up!
If you don't believe me, check next
to the bed. There is a stereo there.
- Take a look at it.
- You should know better, right?
He has told it himself!
- Who was that?
- A guy who works for him at Formula One.
My absolute dream guy.
Oh, then he surely knows Ingolf!
Can't you just drop this Ingolf?
I have to show
something. Follow along.
My God. I get
heart palpitations.
- Same as always.
- Good, same as always.
Thanks!
- Oh, help!
- Suzy, it was just fizzy ice.
We disappear,
the house is on fire!
"Walk talk". "Walk
Talk", Val Doonican.
Fourth place:
"Downtown", Petula Clark.
Place Five: Val Doonican,
sex: "Pretty Paper" with...
- Good morning, Christina.
- Good morning.
So nice that you are awake.
And you, have you
been up all night?
- What are you doing?
- I got an idea from the newspapers.
If I enter information into the computer
about the time your mother and I met...
Then she didn't think I was boring.
There must be something there, right?
What are you laughing
at? Look, I had those too.
You? I can't believe that.
Don't you think I've
been young? But you...
So... "I Feel Fine"
with the Beatles.
- Oh, Dad.
- Yes?
You will never grow up.
- Even though you are so very, very old.
- Yes.
Well, I have to go to work now.
- Hello then.
- Bye, bye, Christina.
Tina is the best I have. What she
cooks doesn't break for ten years.
Lehman! Miss Lehmann!
Miss Lehmann! You
sleep during working hours!
You come early.
- I was just dreaming...
- You are not paid to dream.
You and your "career".
- Excuse me?
- Nothing will ever happen.
You haven't even heard me sing!
Lucky it is. You
have work to do.
You would like that, right? I'm the
only one who actually works here!
You know what?
You have been my
boss for too long.
Yeah, the situation?
Well, thanks... Hosting a TV
show is like a mathematical formula.
You have A and want to go to B, draw a line
and you get ten vertical coordinates...
You, do you remember the
girl who was here yesterday?
Was there a girl here yesterday?
I mean she who
jumped into Flirts.
The one you played
over the demo for?
Yes, and I don't think it's fun.
Not her either.
Are you so backwards?
You can't sup, listen.
- It's just tea.
- Tea?
You, I want to check your tea!
- Drink carefully.
- Sure!
What is that?
An overdose of healthiness. Stinging
nettle, hawthorn, blackberries...
Very concentrated. And in addition
a ten percent copper sulfate solution.
- Are you sick?
- Hopefully soon.
It is because of the patterning.
So that they don't want me.
Hello studio, where is
everyone? We must continue.
We're waiting for
Meat Loaf. I'll go check!
By the way, Micha,
I really have to go.
I have an appointment with
television and a photo shoot.
Forget it, only
important things.
Hillbilly pork belly- mixture?
With that grease,
you're ruining the car!
What you are barking..!
- Here. Take clean water.
- Will be, the boss.
I know what you're
thinking, but that is not true.
It's not my fault.
It will be the breakthrough! What
are you laughing at? This is in!
Exactly that!
Hello? Is there anyone here?
- Boys!
- One moment...
Here. Put on something dry.
MAKEUP
I have to look in my contract.
There it says! The artist can
adapt the log to his own taste.
It's overtime again.
- What is it?
- He doesn't want to perform.
The beer is too cold.
Also, it's not Budweiser.
These semi-professional
newcomers
You wonder who
they think they are.
- On the other hand, we...
- We got discipline with the mother's milk!
Exactly that!
- Where can I change?
- In there.
Pity for such rare peas.
But the show must go on!
I tell you, the beach
sound is the latest!
One thing I tell you: if
you don't have star quality-
-you will get nowhere
in this business.
So without an arrogant appearance
you are nothing? I'll have to check it out.
- I don't have time.
- You have to take your time!
Okay then!
Hey Ingolf, have you seen Tina? You
know, the one with the long dark hair.
- Who looks like he got a bucket of water over him?
- It was you!
Have you seen her?
- But hey, what are you going with her for?
- Sharpen up, where is she?
Five minutes to recording!
Make sure Meat Loaf gets ready,
otherwise we'll take Die Toten Hosen!
Huh? Is she in
Meat Loaf's lodge?
Guys! This is our
chance! Give everything!
Listen carefully. You will carry me
on the surfboard, otherwise I'm not in!
Huh?
Yes you, the sweet It's
easy to make you happy.
Then we drive.
You look great now!
Now it's starting to dry!
It's guaranteed to be a groupie.
They're smashing the whole room!
In that case, they have
foam rubber on the mallets.
What are they doing in there?
Something dirty?
Wir klauen noch einen Kasten
Bier Und dann geht es ins Freibad
California liegt nicht vor der
Tr Und Fupilz ist gegenst
Doch wenn du genug getrunken
hast, Kommen die Wellen von allein
Und jeder andere Badegast
wird fr dich das Surfbrett sein
No! Idiots!
Holy shit!
Your miffon! Be careful!
Listen, tell him not to
worry, I go on stage.
Okay, see you later, cutie!
your victim, you
sabotaged our recording!
- How did you manage that?
- It was easy...
Somewhere a red-eyed waitress
glances at another movie magazine
Down on the corner there's a grocery
boy stuffin' boxes full of hungry dreams
Someone's cleanin' up the offices,
one window burning in the dark
Somebody's cryin' is there any way in
hell to light a comet from a single spark
Workin' so hard I can't remember much
about the freedom I've been working for
Felt like a prisoner 'til
I looked in your eyes
And saw a million
wide open doors
Ya tell me put a little money away,
well every dog will have his day in time
Well I been slavin' like a dog
and I got nothin' to show ya
But a collar and a fist
full of nickels and dimes
I want a piece, a piece of the
action, give me a shot at the real thing
I want a piece of the
action, a piece of the action
Gonna turn on the master,
gonna cut these strings
Gonna turn on the master,
gonna cut these strings
They hand you a paycheck every week
and steal a piece of your soul every day
An' I don't need no gold watch in
fifty years, baby let's be golden today
I want a piece, a piece of the
action, give me a shot at the real thing
I want a piece of the action,
you gonna be breaking my back
Gonna turn on the master,
gonna cut these strings
I want a piece, a piece of the
action, give me a shot at the real thing
I want a piece of the
action, a piece of the action
Gonna turn on the master,
gonna cut these strings
Gonna turn on the master,
gonna cut these strings
Somewhere a red-eyed waitress
glances at another movie magazine
Down on the corner there's a grocery
boy stuffin' boxes full of hungry dreams
- Are you in the program?
- No, but I'm an assistant to the stars!
How lucky I quit this morning!
You are brave, you.
Assistant to the
stars at Formula One!
- I would never fix that.
- It's not that hard...
But I also have a surprise.
let me guess, you
got Ingolf's autograph?
I asked for you this
morning at the office-
- but no one knew anything.
Then he came in, saw me and
immediately asked me out for dinner.
So, tell me, who is this guy?
- You have no idea.
- But tell me!
There he is!
Suzy! He is the one
with the apartment!
Yuk! It has been burning.
Dad, didn't you notice anything?
So, the noodles?
It does nothing.
We still have nothing
to make a sauce out of.
Falco: There Kommissar.
He will come to us soon.
Is his car broken?
Dad, I'm working
at Formula One now!
Are you crazy, Christina?
It's way too dangerous!
I mean the music program.
- I don't understand anything.
- I'll explain everything at dinner.
Sure, okay.
You know, on TV I can
do a lot more for my music.
Think now... You really
wanted to be a car mechanic.
Yes, because I can't make
a living from music yet.
- And on TV, where do you earn money?
- I haven't asked, but I think so.
But that's the
first thing you ask!
Sometimes I think you
don't understand the realities.
And you should say that!
Yes, I have worked for a
while as an auto mechanic.
- Like what?
- The auto mechanic...
- You know, I fix cars.
- Oh, car mechanic!
- Exactly.
- I can't believe that!
Yes, my father was not so
happy, but i only do it for my music.
- I'm a singer.
- So?
- Sure.
- It is of all time.
I'll do my number now.
- Do you know where the makeup is?
- Yes. Straight ahead, first right, then left.
The top. One day we
might sing together!
- Yes.
- Okay, see you, bye!
Why are you eating that?
- To get stronger forearms?
- It's only for DJM.
- Huh?
- The damn pattern.
I try to spoil myself by
eating way too much.
- Why don't you just refuse?
- I've tried.
It doesn't work that way.
They put a lot of pressure
on me, and I can't handle that.
It happens to you
often, doesn't it?
Tina, can you help
me? I can't find.
I'm coming.
You, your demo
I'm really sorry.
I'm going to see Ingolf
in the dressing room-
-and he owes me a favor.
If you happen to have a
cassette with you, then
I happen to. But
if you pie it too
It's open, step on.
- Hello Ingolf!
- Hello.
- Well, I owe you 30 DM, right?
- Yes...
Should I get them back?
Can I borrow 20 more? So
you get 50 back on Friday.
No problem.
Yes, it's a bit embarrassing...
The three huge deposits for
the apartment really ruined me.
Here.
- It's a hundred bucks!
- Huh?
Oh, that was close to the eye.
I forgot my contact lenses
and my glasses are gone.
- Can you help me look?
- Sure.
- Here!
- Thank you.
You, can you listen
to this one? It's Tina's.
Absolutely.
Here are your glasses.
- Where did they find them?
- Among the negro kisses.
- Sniffy?
- Yes.
Take a piece of dry bread and
hold your nose. Old home remedy.
Strangely. The cartridge
appears to be empty.
Maybe the wrong side.
But where did it go?
That is not true!
Raised in a toaster?
Yes, you could guess that!
And Ingolf is myopic...
Tell that to Die Toten Hosen! If you
want to make me laugh, you better try!
I say it like it is.
- Golfing?
- Oh, Stevie!
Can you find my glasses?
I have lost them again.
Again? Certainly.
Oh, Nena, it's your
turn soon. I'm going in.
I'm sorry for
getting angry, okay?
Maybe you can make up for it?
- How then?
- Yes, maybe we can have a coffee?
Do you feel like it?
Why not?
Waiter Stevie.
You need to give me the money.
2000, plus interest.
Hurry up. Time is running out.
Listen Jimmy, I don't
have the money yet.
You can get 200 on Friday.
Don't piss me off, kid.
We have an agreement.
Don't forget it.
If you don't fix the
money, the cart is mine.
Listen to...
I'll give you the money. But
then you have to do me a favor.
You just need to be my
light guy, nothing more.
I used to wonder how
everybody other than me
found someone to love
They must have been given
a stroke of a little bit of luck
Immediately after his performance must
Pia Zadora go to a concert in Dortmund.
This means that the first
recording must be good-
-otherwise they have to strip her and
one of my bands gets to play instead.
Cuz somebody up
there sent me you
Now I've found my
little bit of heaven
I'm feelin' like an angel
Cuz now I found
my little bit of heaven
I'm feelin' more than able
To give you all the
secrets nobody ever knew
and put the past behind me
Forget about what
I have been through
Cuz now I found my
little bit of heaven in you
You only need to pull the pin
out of the headlight in the middle-
-then it falls down and
the recording is destroyed.
But I'll just keep believin'
in the love I've been feelin'
and take one day at a time
Cuz my prayers
have all come true
I can't force you to-
-but otherwise you have a good chance of
winning a medal at the next disability Olympics.
And now I found
my little bit of heaven
I'm feelin' like an angel
Cuz now I found
my little bit of heaven
I'm feelin' more than able
To give you all the
secrets nobody ever knew
and put the past behind me
Forget about what
I have been through
Cuz now I found my
little bit of heaven in you
Now that I've found
my little bit of heaven
I'm feelin' like an angel
Cuz now that I've found
my little bit of heaven
I'm feelin' more than able
To give you all the
secrets nobody ever knew
to put the past behind me
Forget about what
I have been through
Cuz now I found my
little bit of heaven in you
I'm feelin' like an angel
I'm feelin' more than able
Your ass hat!
Hell!
Stevie... What have they
done to you, those asshats?
- I want something to drink.
- You have to be patched up first.
Do you think you can go?
Can you lean on me?
That bastard. I told you when
you were in his apartment.
Why did you call me anyway?
Because I think
you're really cute.
Jim didn't like it, I
understood that immediately.
How cute do you think I am
then? As cute as Pia Zadora?
Much sweeter.
As cute as... The Flirts?
Yes, there was one there that
someone needed to step in for.
And she was really super nice.
Never mind.
- How do you turn it off?
- I don't know!
But look there!
Good morning!
I have a coffee, toast
and eight boiled eggs.
Of course. And for the lady?
Crispbread, without everything.
Thaw? You have to go. Falco is
coming today. Here is the information.
Freshen up a bit. Here.
SABOTAGE! I think
they are messing with me.
Come, come honey, come.
You should know one thing, honey.
My car goes with me everywhere.
Do you have time?
We don't have time!
Is this the right way?
Gullet, down by
the lake is a caf.
There we drink tea-
- and then there will be supper.
Then we never get to the studio.
They can't start
without me can they?
Do I make you shiver?
I don't tremble, I'm freezing.
This car has the Saudi package.
The air conditioner makes a day
in Mecca feel like the North Pole.
Speaking of the North Pole...
Can you pull the black handle?
- Yes.
- One, two, three!
This great car doesn't
possibly have a cassette player?
I have my demo with me.
Yes, this great car
has a cassette player-
-but it only plays my music.
Are you sitting well?
The chair can be adjusted
in any way. Stepless, get it?
One, two...
- Serve, old man.
- Stop! Oh, gosh!
My contact lens!
Yes, it does the same.
Sweet, you should have seen my concert in
Rome! Absolutely incredible. 70,000 people.
Absolutely incredible.
Unbelievable!
- Frenetic cheering...
- It's raining!
All the people..! And the concert,
it was on Mozart's birthday.
- It's raining!
- Amadeus, Amadeus!
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus...
But please someone!
Crowds of people in Rome, human-
loads in Vienna, you won't believe it!
Would you like a coke?
They are here!
It's not that bad.
The crankshaft must be replaced and then the
ignition distributor must be readjusted...
And maybe Wait
Yes, the crankshaft
needs to be pulled off...
Taxi!
...but then I think
we can go again.
Now if nothing happened
to the carburettor... Shit too!
Taxi! Taxi!

Er war ein Punker und er
lebte in der groen Stadt
Es war in Wien, war
Vienna wo er alles tat
Er hatte Schulden, denn er
trank doch ihn liebten alle Frauen
Und jede rief "Come
and rock me Amadeus
You were Superstar,
you were popular
You were so excited
because you had Flair
Er war ein Virtuose
war 'n Rockidol
Und alles rief "Come
and rock me Amadeus
Come and rock me, Amadeus
What is he actually looking at?
It was around 1780
and it was in Vienna
No more plastic money
Die Banken gegen ihn
Woher die Schulden kamen
Was wohl jedermann bekannt
Er war ein Mann der Frauen
Frauen liebten seinen Punk
You were Superstar
You were so popular
Er war zu exaltiert
genau das war sein Flair
You were a virtuoso
War 'n Rock Idol
Und alles ruft noch heute

Good, huh?
- What kind of cloth are you wearing?
- What's the matter with you?
- Huh?
- You were gone with him for four hours-
-and then he wanted you at the Studebaker...
Wonder what he has in his binoculars.
But you... I'm not
interested in celebrities.
- I'm not a groupie, do you understand?
- No.
Stevie, the only one
I'm interested in is you.
- So you?
- Yes.
Hello..!
The oars!
- Why does this always happen to me?
- Because you kissed me!
- Forget it.
- Almost there...
It doesn't work.
Ignore it.
At least we are alone.
- Do you hear that?
- Ignore it.
- But I hear something.
- It's not important.
Gonna take your love away
Stick my fingers in your eye
Going to make you feel small
Bang your head against the wall
Head over heels You try to hide
Head over heels
But you won't survive
Head over heels
I'll be right aside
Head over heels
I'll break your pride
Head over heels...
Guys! I have a great idea!
Over there! We can
use the empty rowboat!
Come on, speed up!
Guys! It's like a bathtub...
Look, get the boat. For my sake.
No, the boss!
One was enough for them!
- What are you doing here?
- We are on a rowing trip.
- And what do you do?
- We make a video for the leaderboard.
- Guys! Line-up!
- I'm cold, Miffo!
I know what you
need. A really hot grog!
Just!
If I had a pfennig for every pimple,
I wish I was a millionaire now.
Have you not dried until half
past eleven, it will be a scandal.
My God. Put the
clothes in the oven!
Everything is rented!
I have some pajamas for you.
Take it easy! Just while
your clothes are drying.
They will lose their shape.
Do not let me disturb...
Can you wear this
for a little while?
- Can you calculate the latest music trends?
- Everything is a matter of programming.
We have to come up with something
that will get us in the newspaper.
Bad music alone is no longer
enough. Something spectacular!
- We're kidnapping Nena!
- We bribe Lck!
- We leave the church.
- No, we join the church!
"Arrival at 18:40 at
the central station?
Is there an NDW group
I've never heard of?
It's my wife's train, freak.
Oh, my God.
I must have gotten
lost in the stairwell.
What do you mean,
Heike? I am your husband.
Heike! Christina!
Your wife, I mean
my wife Christina!
- Mom?
- What is wrong with her?
What could be wrong with mom?
- Mom? What has happened?
- She's probably got the death knell.
Wake up, mom!
It's just Die Toten
Hosen, mother.
Guys! Bad times are over now!
Guess what the computer
says is the last shout next week!
Go now!
Speed up, go!
Stevie...
See you tomorrow.
I'll be late. I have to
go to that damn draft.
Good luck!
Open the door!
Then open it!
Monkey!
Guys, you are out of shape.
Here is the analysis that
the computer has done.
Today's bands are clean,
fresh, young, dynamic and sporty.
Sporty?
Guys, I have it: We're
going to the fitness center!
Fitness center?
fitness center, you
magnificent miffo!
CONDUCT OFFICE
Yes, here it must be!
Up, guys!
Patterners, please prepare.
Fill in the forms carefully.
Where's the damn fitness center?
Trini, it's the smallest size.
Come on, at least that one.
Stefan Dromberger
to the committee room.
- Which branch of arms do you want?
- Excuse me?
You are fully qualified. You can
choose which branch you want.
Formula One...
- No one will think you're black.
- I don't paint myself.
No one would recognize me. If my butcher
doesn't see me on TV, he'll pull my credit.
Hello! Take a
break, make a move!
- Your miffo.
- Listen now. You should get a chance.
I spoke to the manager. We
start tomorrow morning, okay?
- Really?
- Yes.
We have the computer,
nothing can go wrong!
You cannot wear these
clothes. Not ever. Speed up!
Guys!
Hello!
I wanted to surprise
you. This for you.
Nice. Even holds a pipe.
Too bad I don't smoke a pipe.
Excuse me, I have things to do.
- But I don't understand...
- What is there to understand?
- If it's over, it's over.
- But we love each other...
But dear someone,
love... It was fun with you.
- Hello Ingolf!
- Hello.
I don't want to disturb but
you wanted to hear my demo.
Today doesn't work,
maybe tomorrow.
- Today, please?
- All hell has broken loose out there!
Limahl! Limahl!
- Hello.
- Hi, my name is Tina.
- Nice to meet you.
- I work at Formula One.
- Oh, great.
- You have so many fans out there.
I know. They are so many,
sometimes it's a problem.
But that's common
here, isn't it?
I wish I had that many fans.
- You?
- Yes.
- How so?
- Yes, I'm a singer.
- Are you?
- Do you want one?
No, thanks. What kind of music?
- Pop music.

day you might have it.

Don't laugh! You
made out with him!
Assistant to the
stars? Laughable!
You're just an ordinary groupie!
Scotch!
You know what? I don't
give a damn about you.
- You and your damn jealousy.
- Would I be jealous?
Hell.
I have said that I love you.
Why don't you trust me?
ok then, I was
maybe a little jealous.
It's just because
I like you, and I
I have to go far away.

Okay guys, we could
probably use you. Wait outside.
I'll talk to the producer.
- Porqueria!
- Let's go!
A strong number indeed.
- We could do business.
- Business? Guys!
Wait a little. You
need proper promotion.
Promotion?
Jim is not that crazy.
He offers us a contract.
He has even organized
a PR event for the press.
Smash that car, so we become
Germany's most dangerous band!
Let's go!
What are you doing with
my car? Are you crazy? Stop!
- Let the boys get ready!
- Come down! Stop!
It's my car!
It can certainly be polished
off. Then it's like new.
Is that your car?
- But Jim said...
- It was my car. It is fully padded.
Guys. That was shit.
Thunder and lightning

"Today I was almost run over by a battle-
wagon because I think about you all the time.
It wouldn't have been so

He hates speeding!
Yes, Mr. Furir.
Limahl marries a German?
"Tina Lehmann has taken
Limahl's heart with a storm.
"She has succeeded in what
millions of young girls dream of.
"How did she do it?
"Limahl: I'm crazy about her
blue eyes and her nice figure.
"Besides, she cooks good food.
Run now.
Excuse me-
-but can I get tonight
off and leave tomorrow?
Excuse? The permit application must be
made in writing. You know the rules right?
It is very important.
You see, my girlfriend works at Formula
One and she has met the singer Limahl-
-and all the girls like him... Now
they are apparently getting married.
You don't seem to have
understood what conscription means.
It would be better if
you watched the traffic.
What has happened here?
I don't know. I don't
understand what is written on it.
- Is 100,000 dollars a lot in Germany?
- Yes, you can say that.
Are you the record producer?
I have my demo with me.
Advertising. I
work in advertising.
Wait here. My... meeting
can last until 11 p.m.
My name is Armbruster
and I advertise cars.
These youngsters are
perfect for our new campaign.
Do you see?
NOT EVEN GERMANS
BEATS AMERICAN CARS
Yes yes... I understand.
You called five minutes ago! Tina is at a
press conference at the Hilton with Limahl.
Okay. Good night.
Watch out now guys,
hold on tight girls!
Limahl is holding a press
conference at the Hilton tonight.
The favorite of all of the
fair sex, from seven to 70!
- Limahl's press conference?
- First floor, on the left.
- But hey, what are you doing here?
- Limahl...
Tina, the Yankees are making sure we're
on TV! Guess where - you get three tries!
- On Formula One?
- Exactly!
Come, let's celebrate!
Towards the disco!
- Will you drive me home later?
- Yes!
"I hereby apply
for a day's leave.
"Thank you! Stefan Dromberger.
Limahl, all the girls love you
and you seem to love them too?
Most of those
stories are not true.
- But there is a particular rumor...
- Well, really? I mean...
- Did something happen last night?
- Now I'm a gentleman...
it's my girlfriend
your ass hat, your
- Is it with the police?
- It's a toxtolle!
What no one thought would happen
- today it finally becomes a reality!
Wild as black mustangs,
erratic as cobras!
Ladies and gentlemen:
Die Toten Hosen!
Es geht mir wieder gut,
ich hab alles hinter mir
Ich steh bei der Musikbox,
mein Blick fell auf die Tr
Auf einmal geht sie
auf und du bist da
With your new
prince, Hand in Hand
Please go, go, geh
mir aus den Augen
Ich kann euch nicht
zusammen sehen
Please go, go, geh
mir aus den Augen
- It's terrible!
- That's crazy, that guy is a fool!
- He must be a fool!
- I agree.
Ich wei, ich habe damals
nicht viel fr uns getan
Zeigst du ihm all die Sachen,
die ein Geheimnis waren?
Muss dein neuer Traum
wirklich so ne Flasche sein?
Wenn ich noch lang daran
denke hau' ich ihm eine rein
- Limahl?
- Yes?
- May I ask you a favor?
- Tina, I'll do everything for you.
- Do you want to listen to my demo?
- This cassette?
Yes, but be careful.
It's the only one I have.
- It's probably here in my pocket.
- Thank you.
It was so little.
Er hat ne Menge Kohle
und er sieht auch sehr gut aus
Und wenn er mit dir zu euch
geht, freuen sich die Eltern darauf
Und alle deine Freunde
finden ihn so super nett
Hey Lakaffe, take
your Finger away!
Ich trinke aus und zahl' mein
Bier Ich gehe in den Regen raus
In der Jackentasche ist die Faust
geballt Es wird wieder nichts draus
But the next time is the end for
him Yes, das nchste Mal ist er dran
Und dann muss er die Rechnung
zahlen Fr die er vielleicht nichts kann
I regret, but it doesn't
get any better than that.
You can't believe I'm acting like this,
can you? My fans won't recognize me!
The photographers are on their
way. We have to get out of here.
They will write that
he looks like a monster.
We're not coming from here.
The building is surrounded.
I have an idea.
Please go, go, geh
mir aus den Augen
- Have you seen a young soldier?
- Soldier? On Berliner Strae they are shooting a film.
Excellent. Forward!
Attack!
Oh, hell, the general!
Clear? Who is that there?
- Well...
- Don't stand on me!
Listen, come here. He
is good. We'll take him!
But what have they done to you?
- What pigs!
- Someone had fun.
- Some people like that...
- Where is Limahl?
He has stung. He
didn't want to perform.
- Huh?
- We can play instead!
- Where did they go?
- They are disguised, they stung!
- I don't know...
- Come on, after them!
If you need a tape, I
happen to have one.
- No thanks, you shouldn't have treated Suzy like that.
- Why so mad?
Had I not treated her like
that, had she not come to you.
It's true.
Who should you have instead?
Limahl you can forget. I'll get the tape.
Tina, get ready. You
jump in instead of Limahl!
- Fast, give me your demo!
- You mean me?
Full Scots... I
gave it to Limahl!
He hasn't made it
far. We'll bring it back!
Live into this. You
are a young soldier-
-which recently moved
in. Your girlfriend-
- hang out with a
really handsome artist.
Can you play it?
- Or?
- Of course.
- Because you command here?
- No, ask the recording management.
Just think about things you yourself
have experienced. Can you do that?
- Sure.
- Wonderful.
- Then we get ready for recording.
- Who's in charge?
Calm down, just calm down. We'll
take your scene tomorrow, okay?
But what do you look like?
I wanted a small, fat general!
The agency only sends miffon!
We will film your scene
tomorrow. Disappear now!
Thanks.
Forward, soldiers!
Silence! Silence, take!
There they are!
Fast, forward!
Back!
Back! Back!
COSTUME STORAGE
I can't take it anymore!
Hurry up!
"...commanding
you to come hither"-
-"and gnaw off a small piece"-
-"on the threshold, right
where it has been anointed.
"Yes! There you go,
so obey my word...
- Have you seen Limahl?
- Get out, you idiots!
Break, break, break!
Hell. The military!
He may be here,
hurry! where is he
The all-terrain
vehicles, at the exit!
- The train is seized!
- Yes, Colonel.
I'm a general!
"Just now you were a
worm and you deserve it?
"Yes, from Earth's...
You turned your gaze
The screenwriters are taking ever
greater liberties! Why don't they speak up?
Curse! Damned!
Be careful!
They all look the same.
Oh, how you scared me. Come on!
what's wrong with you
Have you seen Tina?
I've looked everywhere.
No.
- Have you seen Ingolf?
- No.
- We're going on a date.
- Really?
What are they doing over there?
They're looking for me. I
have taken a farm leave.
Do you mean it?
Do you know what that
is supposed to mean?
No.
Please, you're not
mad at me yet, are you?
I don't know for sure, but I think
so Die Toten Hosen is behind it.
They would blow you.
They have acquired uniforms
and painted their faces black.
Thanks.
The game is over!
You are seen through!
I recognize you
with glasses too.
This will have consequences!
I will set an example!
- Take him away!
- Wait, wait! Suzy!
- What are you going to do with the deserter?
- Wait a minute...
- Do you know him?
- Yes, it's Tina's boyfriend!
You've been gone
for a little while
I've noticed there's a
change in your smile
How you've made your
message loud and clear
But these are not the
words that I expected to hear
You give me too much, too much
Too much trouble
Too much too, you
give me too much trouble
Too much, too much
too much trouble
Too much too, you give me
If you want to try we
could just be friends
But please tell me
should you have to pretend
Lovers' heartbreaks
make the sweetest sound
And I can hear it
when you are around
Thaw! Assistant to the
stars at Formula One!
He is always jealous
because Limahl is here-
-and he thinks she likes him and if he's
jealous, then he needs some time off...
You must show some consideration. The
military can't be that important, can it?
Not more important than
young love and happiness?
Don't give me too much, too much
Too much trouble
Too much too, you
give me too much trouble
Too much, too much
too much trouble
Too much too, you
give me too much trouble
Too much, too much
too much trouble
Too much too, you
give me too much trouble
Too much, too much
too much trouble
Too much too, you
give me too much trouble
Too much trouble I said...
- Stevie?
- Tell me, what is it between you and Limahl?
Oh, now I get it! You gave
Limahl the Blue Tyrant-
-but I thought you were lying on the hatch!
- You sure hoped so.
- What did you do yesterday?
- We drove Tina home, Othello.
The newspaper said that you
and Limahl were practically married!
Limahl is at the bakery!
- He doesn't have the demon.
- The general is very angry.
You have been granted
permission! You owe me a favor.
- Yes, yes.
- You know, it still didn't work...
I would get to perform,
but now my demo is gone!
Come on. do you
know if i could conjure-
- then I would just stick
my hand in my pocket and...
- My demo!
- Absolutely incredible!
- You have Limahl's jacket!
- Come on, what are you waiting for?
We must begin!
Limahl unfortunately
cannot perform tonight-
-he has an important tour of
Germany's bakeries ahead of him-
-but instead a young
lady has jumped in!
She has a song that is so
new that I don't know it myself.
If I could go to heaven
that's not what I'd do
If you think it's
good that I feel so too
I believe in love and
say, Baby we've just met
I'm sick of your jokes
And you haven't got a clue
If you've heard me
singing That's all I wanna do
Don't be so cruel Can't
you see I'm in misery?
Do you? Do you feel the motion?
I keep on to my devotion
I do not know Do I go to
far when I'm asking for...
For a chance?
Music is dancing like
the Devil in my head
You won't try to tell me
that the Devil drives me mad
I need to have more peace
Give me one more chance
I would be an angel
for the rest of my life
If you let me sing on
the music channel five
Don't be so hard and
agree it's an emergency
Do you? Do you feel the motion?
I keep on to my devotion
I do not know Do I go to
far when I'm asking for...
For a chance?
Only for an hour
It's for an hour
I do not know Do I go to
far when I'm asking for...
When I'm asking for a chance?
Do you? Do you feel the motion?
I keep on to my devotion
Do you? Do you feel the motion?
I keep on to my devotion
Do you? Do you feel the motion?
I keep on to my devotion
Do you? Do you feel the motion?
I keep on to my devotion

THE FORMULA EINS MOVIE
Forward, forward now!
Fit!
Expulsion!
Where are you going?
Stop now!
- Away from the TV!
- We're watching football!
Good day, welcome!
Apparently there is football fever-
-but for those of you who think it's
boring with 22 people running on a lawn...
Here we have: Formula One!
With us tonight: Re-Flex,
Flirts, Meat Loaf, Pia Zadora-
-Falco, Katrina and the
Waves, Limahl, Die Toten Hosen-
-and finally - a big surprise.
The party on the left
is the party on the right
If there ain't no choice,
then there ain't no fight
There's too much ego
and not enough to eat
They read between the words,
they read between the lines
They see everything, but
they can't see that they're blind
You talk about this
and they talk about that
But talk is talk
and facts are facts
Sit down, sit up,
it's your situation
What we want is participation
Sit down, sit up,
it's your situation
What we need is participation
Get behind me
Come on, get behind me
How much longer must
we wait For you to realize
We have got to put things straight
'Cause we're running out of time
The leaders of the world
should hide their heads in shame
From cabinet to cabaret,
it's the price of fame
Pollution in the air,
pollution in our minds
But what we all want is
to get some peace of mind
We're stuck to our TV's,
we're glued to our seats
We like to watch the news
'cause we're addicted to repeats
So put your money
where your mouth is
Put your fingers in the sockets
Wipe that smile off your face
And take your hands
out of your pockets
Sit down, sit up,
it's your situation
What we want is participation
You fugitive!
What we need is participation
The second one,
a little to the left.
Get behind me
Come on, get behind me
How much longer must
we wait For you to realize
We have got to put things straight
'Cause we're running out of time
How much longer must
we wait For you to realize
We have got to put things straight
'Cause we're running out of time
It doesn't matter It
doesn't matter to me
But if no one
cares then I despair
More smoke.
Say what you will
And say what you like
But the question
is who will stand
It's way too much.
Start the wind machine.
We are the group of groups, Die
Toten Hosen! We have to go in!
We're going into
Formula One, now directly.
How much longer must
we wait For you to realize
We have got to
put things straight
Stevie, have you
seen Trisha from Flirts?
They are due up in a quarter of
an hour and the third girl is missing.
But the other two,
they know right?
- Now be nice, they'll be up in a quarter of an hour.
- Okay, okay, I'll take care of it.
CASTING
Hello?
Hello? Hello?!
Oh... Do you have a
record you want me to hear?
- No disc, but a fantastic demo cassette.
- Sorry, I'm sorry.
For our tips, we only use music that
has already been released. Excuse me.
Can't you make
a small exception?
I'm sorry, but it doesn't work.
Thanks for nothing.
- What's your name?
- Are you proud of this?
- You can get into trouble if you don't let us in.
- I think so too.
We're done hours late, but the
third girl from Flirts... Shall we wait?
Absolutely not. Take any
girl, get a cleaning lady!
A cleaning lady?
Maid... My cleaning
lady quit last week.
But heaven! Maybe you can help
us out of a little predicament, okay?
I don't care if you
can sing, it's playback.
- I can sing!
- All the better, just sing something!
No one can hear it anyway.
- Michael, is that okay?
- Okay, but we only film her in full body.
Quiet in the studio.
The band is rolling!
A TV studio! Hey guys!
Where is the boss?
Die Toten Hosen is coming!
- Don't you have anything to do?
- The nose! The nose.
Silence! Get out of here!
- Silence!
- Guys, be sensible.
The boss is in a bad mood
today. Come back later, okay?
Do you always look like that?
How so?
I found her! She went on the
movie tour, she was in the submarine.
Good, then we can finally
start! Remove the other girl.
I get it! It's okay.
Hey Stevie, archival
copy- the cassette is gone.
- Do you have another one?
- One moment.
Do you want to do me a favor?
Can you listen to my demo tape?
There it is!
Hello! Stop, you miffo!
- The band is rolling.
- No, stop, stop! My demo...
Dancing madly backwards
Dancing on a sea of air
Dancing madly backwards
Dancing on a sea of air
You can love if you want to love
You can fight if
push comes to shove
You can run if the
going gets tough
Or you can say that
you've had enough
Don't ever try to change me
'Cause you will surely find me
Dancing madly backwards
Waiter Stevie!
- Sad to have to walk, huh?
- Stop. You will get your money.
Not good enough. I am
sticking to our agreement.
Don't forget the interest rate!
That's the thank
you! I'm too kind.
- But to the point, have you thought about it?
- It's nothing to think about.
I say no, my
record label is okay.
With us as your manager, you'll be
the biggest within a year, guaranteed!
Dancing on a sea of air
Don't ever try to change me

- I won't change my mind.
- You are making a big mistake.
Damn you...
- Nice tail.
- Well, not bad.
For her I would release a
sold-out concert in the Olympiahalle.
Tell me, do you have
something against me?
Why did you do that?
- Why did you destroy my tape?
- Me? Your cassette?
My cassette! Do you understand
what music means to me?
Do you have any idea what it's like to keep
asking people if they've heard my demo?
No, it's clear you don't get it!
You hippie!
Did I understand correctly..?
Did he destroy your demo?
Yes. He played over the tape.
Luckily, I have a copy.
I'm a record producer.
What was on the demo?
Music, of course. Unfortunately,
I can't play it for you right now.
Interesting. Maybe we
can talk more about this?
In this industry, an
eye for talent is needed.
I'm sure you have something.
Take for example the guy standing
next to me, that came from the studio.
When I got to know him, he was playing in
a Bavarian rock band, but now he's on top.
Huh? Do you have
a contract with him?
No, not yet. But I
think he will sign soon.
I have an idea and
you can help me with it.
- How then? I don't even know him.
- It doesn't matter.
He is in Munich to record an album right now,
but in the evenings he is always at the O2.
And what will there and I do?
Oh, please. Have a
drink at the bar with him.
A friendly dance, you
have fun... The night is long.
You want to get
somewhere, don't you?
I think we have mis-
understood each other, Jim.
I wanted a chance,
but not at any price.
Wait a minute -
you passed the test!
Talent alone is not enough.
It depends on the character.
So I test the clients before
I become their manager.
- That didn't seem like a test.
- Well, what was it then?
I just want to protect myself.
Character, that's my motto. Character!
- Whoops.
- You again?
Dad?
Dad, are you home?
Yes, come to the kitchen!
- This is Kai, remember?
- Hey Kai.
- Are you coming from the factory?
- The garage, dad.
You who took your
matriculation exam...
I was at Formula One
today. I feel that I will succeed!
- Yes, I hope so.
- Has mom told you when she's coming home?
Yes, there is a postcard there.
So if I want to retrieve
data, should i press RAM?
No, Mr. Lehmann.
First of all... You start
with the password.
Write this: E = mc^2
And now we state the question.
So typical mom!
She has been completely
changed by the cure.
- And she hopes it will happen to you.
- She thinks I'm old-fashioned, I know.
Cousin, please dad. Look
at yourself! The clothes!
I am making an effort to
learn about the progress!
I'll take it. Wait a minute...
- Oh, what a careless mistake. 17 billion!
- Mr. Lehmann. You have to wait until it says "Ready".
- So?
- It's very simple.
- Is it?
- Yes. Super easy.
- Bye, Dad!
- Hello then.
- I'm going out again.
- Yes.
- Suzy!
- How did it go in the studio?
I went there and I
thought I'd fix it myself...
- Did you meet Ingolf?
- Yes, but only quickly.
how is he Kind? Or
am I just imagining it?
I just had a quick chat with him. Get it,
there was a miffo that ruined my demo!
Next time I'll come along.
- Then I'll get an autograph from Ingolf.
- You're nagging.
Wait a little.
Are you going to pay?
DM 17.50.
- I only have 100. Do you have gear on it?
- Unfortunately, unfortunately...
Now so.
And here, 30 You'll
get the rest in five.
Suzy!
Do you know who that was? A
guy who wants to hear my demo!
- We're going to his apartment.
- Are you crazy?
- He probably wants to put on something other than music.
- Do you think I'm stupid?
I'm coming along. If there are
two of us, nothing can happen.
The better! But you have
to handle him yourself.
Come on!
Then we're done!
Hello?
Jim, do you remember the little
brunette from the studio this afternoon?
Can you imagine, she
wants to get to know you!
She is waiting for
you in my apartment.
Yes. Consider our contract.
We'll talk about it tomorrow.
Refinement. Have so much fun!
Tell me, are you
sure he is honest?
You and your paranoia.
He just wants to
listen to my demo.
I think he's calling
to say he's late.
- Yes, hello?
- Hello Tina, this is Stevie.
I don't know if you remember me, I'm the
one who happened to play over your demo.
Are you calling to say that?
Yes. No, I'm calling to say
that Jim is going to cheat on you.
- I can handle myself, okay?
- Don't hang up!
If you don't believe me, check next
to the bed. There is a stereo there.
- Take a look at it.
- You should know better, right?
He has told it himself!
- Who was that?
- A guy who works for him at Formula One.
My absolute dream guy.
Oh, then he surely knows Ingolf!
Can't you just drop this Ingolf?
I have to show
something. Follow along.
My God. I get
heart palpitations.
- Same as always.
- Good, same as always.
Thanks!
- Oh, help!
- Suzy, it was just fizzy ice.
We disappear,
the house is on fire!

Talk", Val Doonican.

- Good morning, Christina.
- Good morning.
So nice that you are awake.
And you, have you
been up all night?
- What are you doing?
- I got an idea from the newspapers.
If I enter information into the computer
about the time your mother and I met...
Then she didn't think I was boring.
There must be something there, right?
What are you laughing
at? Look, I had those too.
You? I can't believe that.
Don't you think I've
been young? But you...
So... "I Feel Fine"
with the Beatles.
- Oh, Dad.
- Yes?
You will never grow up.
- Even though you are so very, very old.
- Yes.
Well, I have to go to work now.
- Hello then.
- Bye, bye, Christina.
Tina is the best I have. What she
cooks doesn't break for ten years.
Lehman! Miss Lehmann!
Miss Lehmann! You
sleep during working hours!
You come early.
- I was just dreaming...
- You are not paid to dream.
You and your "career".
- Excuse me?
- Nothing will ever happen.
You haven't even heard me sing!
Lucky it is. You
have work to do.
You would like that, right? I'm the
only one who actually works here!
You know what?
You have been my
boss for too long.
Yeah, the situation?
Well, thanks... Hosting a TV
show is like a mathematical formula.
You have A and want to go to B, draw a line
and you get ten vertical coordinates...
You, do you remember the
girl who was here yesterday?
Was there a girl here yesterday?
I mean she who
jumped into Flirts.
The one you played
over the demo for?
Yes, and I don't think it's fun.
Not her either.
Are you so backwards?
You can't sup, listen.
- It's just tea.
- Tea?
You, I want to check your tea!
- Drink carefully.
- Sure!
What is that?
An overdose of healthiness. Stinging
nettle, hawthorn, blackberries...
Very concentrated. And in addition
a ten percent copper sulfate solution.
- Are you sick?
- Hopefully soon.
It is because of the patterning.
So that they don't want me.
Hello studio, where is
everyone? We must continue.
We're waiting for
Meat Loaf. I'll go check!
By the way, Micha,
I really have to go.
I have an appointment with
television and a photo shoot.
Forget it, only
important things.
Hillbilly pork belly- mixture?
With that grease,
you're ruining the car!
What you are barking..!
- Here. Take clean water.
- Will be, the boss.
I know what you're
thinking, but that is not true.
It's not my fault.
It will be the breakthrough! What
are you laughing at? This is in!
Exactly that!
Hello? Is there anyone here?
- Boys!
- One moment...
Here. Put on something dry.
MAKEUP
I have to look in my contract.
There it says! The artist can
adapt the log to his own taste.
It's overtime again.
- What is it?
- He doesn't want to perform.
The beer is too cold.
Also, it's not Budweiser.
These semi-professional
newcomers
You wonder who
they think they are.
- On the other hand, we...
- We got discipline with the mother's milk!
Exactly that!
- Where can I change?
- In there.
Pity for such rare peas.
But the show must go on!
I tell you, the beach
sound is the latest!
One thing I tell you: if
you don't have star quality-
-you will get nowhere
in this business.
So without an arrogant appearance
you are nothing? I'll have to check it out.
- I don't have time.
- You have to take your time!
Okay then!
Hey Ingolf, have you seen Tina? You
know, the one with the long dark hair.
- Who looks like he got a bucket of water over him?
- It was you!
Have you seen her?
- But hey, what are you going with her for?
- Sharpen up, where is she?
Five minutes to recording!
Make sure Meat Loaf gets ready,
otherwise we'll take Die Toten Hosen!
Huh? Is she in
Meat Loaf's lodge?
Guys! This is our
chance! Give everything!
Listen carefully. You will carry me
on the surfboard, otherwise I'm not in!
Huh?
Yes you, the sweet It's
easy to make you happy.
Then we drive.
You look great now!
Now it's starting to dry!
It's guaranteed to be a groupie.
They're smashing the whole room!
In that case, they have
foam rubber on the mallets.
What are they doing in there?
Something dirty?
Wir klauen noch einen Kasten
Bier Und dann geht es ins Freibad
California liegt nicht vor der

Doch wenn du genug getrunken
hast, Kommen die Wellen von allein
Und jeder andere Badegast

No! Idiots!
Holy shit!
Your miffon! Be careful!
Listen, tell him not to
worry, I go on stage.
Okay, see you later, cutie!
your victim, you
sabotaged our recording!
- How did you manage that?
- It was easy...
Somewhere a red-eyed waitress
glances at another movie magazine
Down on the corner there's a grocery
boy stuffin' boxes full of hungry dreams
Someone's cleanin' up the offices,
one window burning in the dark
Somebody's cryin' is there any way in
hell to light a comet from a single spark
Workin' so hard I can't remember much
about the freedom I've been working for
Felt like a prisoner 'til
I looked in your eyes
And saw a million
wide open doors
Ya tell me put a little money away,
well every dog will have his day in time
Well I been slavin' like a dog
and I got nothin' to show ya
But a collar and a fist
full of nickels and dimes
I want a piece, a piece of the
action, give me a shot at the real thing
I want a piece of the
action, a piece of the action
Gonna turn on the master,
gonna cut these strings
Gonna turn on the master,
gonna cut these strings
They hand you a paycheck every week
and steal a piece of your soul every day
An' I don't need no gold watch in
fifty years, baby let's be golden today
I want a piece, a piece of the
action, give me a shot at the real thing
I want a piece of the action,
you gonna be breaking my back
Gonna turn on the master,
gonna cut these strings
I want a piece, a piece of the
action, give me a shot at the real thing
I want a piece of the
action, a piece of the action
Gonna turn on the master,
gonna cut these strings
Gonna turn on the master,
gonna cut these strings

- Are you in the program?
- No, but I'm an assistant to the stars!
How lucky I quit this morning!
You are brave, you.
Assistant to the
stars at Formula One!
- I would never fix that.
- It's not that hard...
But I also have a surprise.
let me guess, you
got Ingolf's autograph?
I asked for you this
morning at the office-
- but no one knew anything.
Then he came in, saw me and
immediately asked me out for dinner.
So, tell me, who is this guy?
- You have no idea.
- But tell me!
There he is!
Suzy! He is the one
with the apartment!
Yuk! It has been burning.
Dad, didn't you notice anything?
So, the noodles?
It does nothing.
We still have nothing
to make a sauce out of.
Falco: There Kommissar.
He will come to us soon.
Is his car broken?
Dad, I'm working
at Formula One now!
Are you crazy, Christina?
It's way too dangerous!
I mean the music program.
- I don't understand anything.
- I'll explain everything at dinner.
Sure, okay.
You know, on TV I can
do a lot more for my music.
Think now... You really
wanted to be a car mechanic.
Yes, because I can't make
a living from music yet.
- And on TV, where do you earn money?
- I haven't asked, but I think so.
But that's the
first thing you ask!
Sometimes I think you
don't understand the realities.
And you should say that!
Yes, I have worked for a
while as an auto mechanic.
- Like what?
- The auto mechanic...
- You know, I fix cars.
- Oh, car mechanic!
- Exactly.
- I can't believe that!
Yes, my father was not so
happy, but i only do it for my music.
- I'm a singer.
- So?
- Sure.
- It is of all time.
I'll do my number now.
- Do you know where the makeup is?
- Yes. Straight ahead, first right, then left.
The top. One day we
might sing together!
- Yes.
- Okay, see you, bye!
Why are you eating that?
- To get stronger forearms?
- It's only for DJM.
- Huh?
- The damn pattern.
I try to spoil myself by
eating way too much.
- Why don't you just refuse?
- I've tried.
It doesn't work that way.
They put a lot of pressure
on me, and I can't handle that.
It happens to you
often, doesn't it?
Tina, can you help
me? I can't find.
I'm coming.
You, your demo
I'm really sorry.
I'm going to see Ingolf
in the dressing room-
-and he owes me a favor.
If you happen to have a
cassette with you, then
I happen to. But
if you pie it too
It's open, step on.
- Hello Ingolf!
- Hello.
- Well, I owe you 30 DM, right?
- Yes...
Should I get them back?
Can I borrow 20 more? So
you get 50 back on Friday.
No problem.
Yes, it's a bit embarrassing...
The three huge deposits for
the apartment really ruined me.
Here.
- It's a hundred bucks!
- Huh?
Oh, that was close to the eye.
I forgot my contact lenses
and my glasses are gone.
- Can you help me look?
- Sure.
- Here!
- Thank you.
You, can you listen
to this one? It's Tina's.
Absolutely.
Here are your glasses.
- Where did they find them?
- Among the negro kisses.
- Sniffy?
- Yes.
Take a piece of dry bread and
hold your nose. Old home remedy.
Strangely. The cartridge
appears to be empty.
Maybe the wrong side.
But where did it go?
That is not true!
Raised in a toaster?
Yes, you could guess that!
And Ingolf is myopic...
Tell that to Die Toten Hosen! If you
want to make me laugh, you better try!
I say it like it is.
- Golfing?
- Oh, Stevie!
Can you find my glasses?
I have lost them again.
Again? Certainly.
Oh, Nena, it's your
turn soon. I'm going in.
I'm sorry for
getting angry, okay?
Maybe you can make up for it?
- How then?
- Yes, maybe we can have a coffee?
Do you feel like it?
Why not?
Waiter Stevie.
You need to give me the money.
2000, plus interest.
Hurry up. Time is running out.
Listen Jimmy, I don't
have the money yet.
You can get 200 on Friday.
Don't piss me off, kid.
We have an agreement.
Don't forget it.
If you don't fix the
money, the cart is mine.
Listen to...
I'll give you the money. But
then you have to do me a favor.
You just need to be my
light guy, nothing more.
I used to wonder how
everybody other than me
found someone to love
They must have been given
a stroke of a little bit of luck
Immediately after his performance must
Pia Zadora go to a concert in Dortmund.
This means that the first
recording must be good-
-otherwise they have to strip her and
one of my bands gets to play instead.
Cuz somebody up
there sent me you
Now I've found my
little bit of heaven
I'm feelin' like an angel
Cuz now I found
my little bit of heaven
I'm feelin' more than able
To give you all the
secrets nobody ever knew
and put the past behind me
Forget about what
I have been through
Cuz now I found my
little bit of heaven in you
You only need to pull the pin
out of the headlight in the middle-
-then it falls down and
the recording is destroyed.
But I'll just keep believin'
in the love I've been feelin'
and take one day at a time
Cuz my prayers
have all come true
I can't force you to-
-but otherwise you have a good chance of
winning a medal at the next disability Olympics.
And now I found
my little bit of heaven
I'm feelin' like an angel
Cuz now I found
my little bit of heaven
I'm feelin' more than able
To give you all the
secrets nobody ever knew
and put the past behind me
Forget about what
I have been through
Cuz now I found my
little bit of heaven in you
Now that I've found
my little bit of heaven
I'm feelin' like an angel
Cuz now that I've found
my little bit of heaven
I'm feelin' more than able
To give you all the
secrets nobody ever knew
to put the past behind me
Forget about what
I have been through
Cuz now I found my
little bit of heaven in you
I'm feelin' like an angel
I'm feelin' more than able
Your ass hat!
Hell!
Stevie... What have they
done to you, those asshats?
- I want something to drink.
- You have to be patched up first.
Do you think you can go?
Can you lean on me?
That bastard. I told you when
you were in his apartment.
Why did you call me anyway?
Because I think
you're really cute.
Jim didn't like it, I
understood that immediately.
How cute do you think I am
then? As cute as Pia Zadora?
Much sweeter.
As cute as... The Flirts?
Yes, there was one there that
someone needed to step in for.
And she was really super nice.
Never mind.
- How do you turn it off?
- I don't know!
But look there!
Good morning!
I have a coffee, toast
and eight boiled eggs.
Of course. And for the lady?
Crispbread, without everything.
Thaw? You have to go. Falco is
coming today. Here is the information.
Freshen up a bit. Here.
SABOTAGE! I think
they are messing with me.
Come, come honey, come.
You should know one thing, honey.
My car goes with me everywhere.
Do you have time?
We don't have time!
Is this the right way?
Gullet, down by
the lake is a caf.
There we drink tea-
- and then there will be supper.
Then we never get to the studio.
They can't start
without me can they?
Do I make you shiver?
I don't tremble, I'm freezing.
This car has the Saudi package.
The air conditioner makes a day
in Mecca feel like the North Pole.
Speaking of the North Pole...
Can you pull the black handle?
- Yes.
- One, two, three!
This great car doesn't
possibly have a cassette player?
I have my demo with me.
Yes, this great car
has a cassette player-
-but it only plays my music.
Are you sitting well?
The chair can be adjusted
in any way. Stepless, get it?
One, two...
- Serve, old man.
- Stop! Oh, gosh!
My contact lens!
Yes, it does the same.
Sweet, you should have seen my concert in
Rome! Absolutely incredible. 70,000 people.
Absolutely incredible.
Unbelievable!
- Frenetic cheering...
- It's raining!
All the people..! And the concert,
it was on Mozart's birthday.
- It's raining!
- Amadeus, Amadeus!
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus...
But please someone!
Crowds of people in Rome, human-
loads in Vienna, you won't believe it!
Would you like a coke?
They are here!
It's not that bad.
The crankshaft must be replaced and then the
ignition distributor must be readjusted...
And maybe Wait
Yes, the crankshaft
needs to be pulled off...
Taxi!
...but then I think
we can go again.
Now if nothing happened
to the carburettor... Shit too!
Taxi! Taxi!
The camshaft is stuck.
I thought I was in town...
You recognize me, right?
It's me...
Commissioners. Falcon! It's me!
Falcon! There Commissioners!
There Commissioners!
HOSPITAL SURGICAL CLINIC
Hello? Is it the emergency room?
I wonder if you have received
a patient called Tina Lehmann?
Hello? Can you postpone?
It works! You can jump in!
Ingolf, do you have fire?
Yes, one moment.
Which one should
I light, this or that?
Oh, they're here!
Hurry now, you have to do your
make-up and you have to change!
Come on!
- Tina, come on. You're going up too.
- Me?
- Yes, you!
- Why me?
Falco wants you to join!
Rock me, rock me, rock me,
rock me Rock me, Amadeus
Do it, do it
Rock me all the time to the top
Er war ein Punker und er

You were so excited
because you had Flair
Er war ein Virtuose

and it was in Vienna
No more plastic money

Good, huh?
- What kind of cloth are you wearing?
- What's the matter with you?
- Huh?
- You were gone with him for four hours-
-and then he wanted you at the Studebaker...
Wonder what he has in his binoculars.
But you... I'm not
interested in celebrities.
- I'm not a groupie, do you understand?
- No.
Stevie, the only one
I'm interested in is you.
- So you?
- Yes.
Hello..!
The oars!
- Why does this always happen to me?
- Because you kissed me!
- Forget it.
- Almost there...
It doesn't work.
Ignore it.
At least we are alone.
- Do you hear that?
- Ignore it.
- But I hear something.
- It's not important.
Gonna take your love away
Stick my fingers in your eye
Going to make you feel small
Bang your head against the wall
Head over heels You try to hide
Head over heels
But you won't survive
Head over heels
I'll be right aside
Head over heels
I'll break your pride
Head over heels...
Guys! I have a great idea!
Over there! We can
use the empty rowboat!
Come on, speed up!
Guys! It's like a bathtub...
Look, get the boat. For my sake.
No, the boss!
One was enough for them!
- What are you doing here?
- We are on a rowing trip.
- And what do you do?
- We make a video for the leaderboard.
- Guys! Line-up!
- I'm cold, Miffo!
I know what you
need. A really hot grog!
Just!
If I had a pfennig for every pimple,
I wish I was a millionaire now.
Have you not dried until half
past eleven, it will be a scandal.
My God. Put the
clothes in the oven!
Everything is rented!
I have some pajamas for you.
Take it easy! Just while
your clothes are drying.
They will lose their shape.
Do not let me disturb...
Can you wear this
for a little while?
- Can you calculate the latest music trends?
- Everything is a matter of programming.
We have to come up with something
that will get us in the newspaper.
Bad music alone is no longer
enough. Something spectacular!
- We're kidnapping Nena!
- We bribe Lck!
- We leave the church.
- No, we join the church!
"Arrival at 18:40 at
the central station?
Is there an NDW group
I've never heard of?
It's my wife's train, freak.
Oh, my God.
I must have gotten
lost in the stairwell.
What do you mean,
Heike? I am your husband.
Heike! Christina!
Your wife, I mean
my wife Christina!
- Mom?
- What is wrong with her?
What could be wrong with mom?
- Mom? What has happened?
- She's probably got the death knell.
Wake up, mom!
It's just Die Toten
Hosen, mother.
Guys! Bad times are over now!
Guess what the computer
says is the last shout next week!
Go now!
Speed up, go!
Stevie...
See you tomorrow.
I'll be late. I have to
go to that damn draft.
Good luck!
Open the door!
Then open it!
Monkey!
Guys, you are out of shape.
Here is the analysis that
the computer has done.
Today's bands are clean,
fresh, young, dynamic and sporty.
Sporty?
Guys, I have it: We're
going to the fitness center!
Fitness center?
fitness center, you
magnificent miffo!
CONDUCT OFFICE
Yes, here it must be!
Up, guys!
Patterners, please prepare.
Fill in the forms carefully.
Where's the damn fitness center?
Trini, it's the smallest size.
Come on, at least that one.
Stefan Dromberger
to the committee room.
- Which branch of arms do you want?
- Excuse me?
You are fully qualified. You can
choose which branch you want.
Formula One...
- No one will think you're black.
- I don't paint myself.
No one would recognize me. If my butcher
doesn't see me on TV, he'll pull my credit.
Hello! Take a
break, make a move!
- Your miffo.
- Listen now. You should get a chance.
I spoke to the manager. We
start tomorrow morning, okay?
- Really?

We have the computer,
nothing can go wrong!
You cannot wear these
clothes. Not ever. Speed up!
Guys!
Hello!
I wanted to surprise
you. This for you.
Nice. Even holds a pipe.
Too bad I don't smoke a pipe.
Excuse me, I have things to do.

- But we love each other...
But dear someone,
love... It was fun with you.

I don't want to disturb but
you wanted to hear my demo.
Today doesn't work,
maybe tomorrow.
- Today, please?
- All hell has broken loose out there!

I know. They are so many,
sometimes it's a problem.
But that's common
here, isn't it?
I wish I had that many fans.

Assistant to the
stars? Laughable!
You're just an ordinary groupie!
Scotch!
You know what? I don't
give a damn about you.
- You and your damn jealousy.
- Would I be jealous?
Hell.
I have said that I love you.
Why don't you trust me?
ok then, I was
maybe a little jealous.
It's just because
I like you, and I
I have to go far away.

A strong number indeed.

Wait a little. You

Promotion?
Jim is not that crazy.
He offers us a contract.
He has even organized
a PR event for the press.
Smash that car, so we become
Germany's most dangerous band!
Let's go!
What are you doing with
my car? Are you crazy? Stop!
- Let the boys get ready!
- Come down! Stop!
It's my car!
It can certainly be polished
off. Then it's like new.
Is that your car?
- But Jim said...
- It was my car. It is fully padded.
Guys. That was shit.

Limahl marries a German?
"Tina Lehmann has taken
Limahl's heart with a storm.
"She has succeeded in what
millions of young girls dream of.
"How did she do it?
"Limahl: I'm crazy about her
blue eyes and her nice figure.
"Besides, she cooks good food.
Run now.
Excuse me-
-but can I get tonight
off and leave tomorrow?
Excuse? The permit application must be
made in writing. You know the rules right?
It is very important.
You see, my girlfriend works at Formula
One and she has met the singer Limahl-
-and all the girls like him... Now
they are apparently getting married.
You don't seem to have
understood what conscription means.
It would be better if
you watched the traffic.
What has happened here?
I don't know. I don't
understand what is written on it.
- Is 100,000 dollars a lot in Germany?
- Yes, you can say that.
Are you the record producer?
I have my demo with me.
Advertising. I
work in advertising.
Wait here. My... meeting
can last until 11 p.m.
My name is Armbruster
and I advertise cars.
These youngsters are
perfect for our new campaign.
Do you see?
NOT EVEN GERMANS
BEATS AMERICAN CARS
Yes yes... I understand.
You called five minutes ago! Tina is at a
press conference at the Hilton with Limahl.
Okay. Good night.
Watch out now guys,
hold on tight girls!
Limahl is holding a press
conference at the Hilton tonight.
The favorite of all of the
fair sex, from seven to 70!
- Limahl's press conference?
- First floor, on the left.
- But hey, what are you doing here?
- Limahl...
Tina, the Yankees are making sure we're
on TV! Guess where - you get three tries!
- On Formula One?
- Exactly!
Come, let's celebrate!
Towards the disco!
- Will you drive me home later?
- Yes!
"I hereby apply
for a day's leave.
"Thank you! Stefan Dromberger.
Limahl, all the girls love you
and you seem to love them too?
Most of those
stories are not true.
- But there is a particular rumor...
- Well, really? I mean...
- Did something happen last night?
- Now I'm a gentleman...
it's my girlfriend
your ass hat, your
- Is it with the police?
- It's a toxtolle!
What no one thought would happen
- today it finally becomes a reality!
Wild as black mustangs,
erratic as cobras!
Ladies and gentlemen:
Die Toten Hosen!
Es geht mir wieder gut,
ich hab alles hinter mir
Ich steh bei der Musikbox,
mein Blick fell auf die Tr
Auf einmal geht sie
auf und du bist da
With your new
prince, Hand in Hand
Please go, go, geh
mir aus den Augen
Ich kann euch nicht
zusammen sehen
Please go, go, geh
mir aus den Augen
- It's terrible!
- That's crazy, that guy is a fool!
- He must be a fool!
- I agree.
Ich wei, ich habe damals
nicht viel fr uns getan
Zeigst du ihm all die Sachen,
die ein Geheimnis waren?
Muss dein neuer Traum
wirklich so ne Flasche sein?
Wenn ich noch lang daran
denke hau' ich ihm eine rein
- Limahl?
- Yes?
- May I ask you a favor?
- Tina, I'll do everything for you.
- Do you want to listen to my demo?
- This cassette?
Yes, but be careful.
It's the only one I have.
- It's probably here in my pocket.
- Thank you.
It was so little.
Er hat ne Menge Kohle
und er sieht auch sehr gut aus
Und wenn er mit dir zu euch
geht, freuen sich die Eltern darauf
Und alle deine Freunde
finden ihn so super nett
Hey Lakaffe, take
your Finger away!
Ich trinke aus und zahl' mein
Bier Ich gehe in den Regen raus
In der Jackentasche ist die Faust
geballt Es wird wieder nichts draus
But the next time is the end for
him Yes, das nchste Mal ist er dran
Und dann muss er die Rechnung
zahlen Fr die er vielleicht nichts kann
I regret, but it doesn't
get any better than that.
You can't believe I'm acting like this,
can you? My fans won't recognize me!
The photographers are on their
way. We have to get out of here.
They will write that
he looks like a monster.
We're not coming from here.
The building is surrounded.
I have an idea.
Please go, go, geh
mir aus den Augen
- Have you seen a young soldier?
- Soldier? On Berliner Strae they are shooting a film.
Excellent. Forward!
Attack!
Oh, hell, the general!
Clear? Who is that there?
- Well...
- Don't stand on me!
Listen, come here. He
is good. We'll take him!
But what have they done to you?
- What pigs!
- Someone had fun.
- Some people like that...
- Where is Limahl?
He has stung. He
didn't want to perform.
- Huh?
- We can play instead!
- Where did they go?
- They are disguised, they stung!
- I don't know...
- Come on, after them!
If you need a tape, I
happen to have one.
- No thanks, you shouldn't have treated Suzy like that.
- Why so mad?
Had I not treated her like
that, had she not come to you.
It's true.
Who should you have instead?
Limahl you can forget. I'll get the tape.
Tina, get ready. You
jump in instead of Limahl!
- Fast, give me your demo!
- You mean me?
Full Scots... I
gave it to Limahl!
He hasn't made it
far. We'll bring it back!
Live into this. You
are a young soldier-
-which recently moved
in. Your girlfriend-
- hang out with a
really handsome artist.
Can you play it?
- Or?
- Of course.
- Because you command here?
- No, ask the recording management.
Just think about things you yourself
have experienced. Can you do that?
- Sure.
- Wonderful.
- Then we get ready for recording.
- Who's in charge?
Calm down, just calm down. We'll
take your scene tomorrow, okay?
But what do you look like?
I wanted a small, fat general!
The agency only sends miffon!
We will film your scene
tomorrow. Disappear now!
Thanks.
Forward, soldiers!
Silence! Silence, take!
There they are!
Fast, forward!
Back!
Back! Back!
COSTUME STORAGE
I can't take it anymore!
Hurry up!
"...commanding
you to come hither"-
-"and gnaw off a small piece"-
-"on the threshold, right
where it has been anointed.
"Yes! There you go,
so obey my word...
- Have you seen Limahl?
- Get out, you idiots!
Break, break, break!
Hell. The military!
He may be here,
hurry! where is he
The all-terrain
vehicles, at the exit!
- The train is seized!
- Yes, Colonel.
I'm a general!
"Just now you were a
worm and you deserve it?
"Yes, from Earth's...
You turned your gaze
The screenwriters are taking ever
greater liberties! Why don't they speak up?
Curse! Damned!
Be careful!
They all look the same.
Oh, how you scared me. Come on!
what's wrong with you
Have you seen Tina?
I've looked everywhere.
No.
- Have you seen Ingolf?
- No.
- We're going on a date.
- Really?
What are they doing over there?
They're looking for me. I
have taken a farm leave.
Do you mean it?
Do you know what that
is supposed to mean?
No.
Please, you're not
mad at me yet, are you?
I don't know for sure, but I think
so Die Toten Hosen is behind it.
They would blow you.
They have acquired uniforms
and painted their faces black.
Thanks.
The game is over!
You are seen through!
I recognize you
with glasses too.
This will have consequences!
I will set an example!
- Take him away!
- Wait, wait! Suzy!
- What are you going to do with the deserter?
- Wait a minute...
- Do you know him?
- Yes, it's Tina's boyfriend!
You've been gone
for a little while
I've noticed there's a
change in your smile
How you've made your
message loud and clear
But these are not the
words that I expected to hear
You give me too much, too much
Too much trouble
Too much too, you
give me too much trouble
Too much, too much
too much trouble
Too much too, you give me
If you want to try we
could just be friends
But please tell me
should you have to pretend
Lovers' heartbreaks
make the sweetest sound
And I can hear it
when you are around
Thaw! Assistant to the
stars at Formula One!
He is always jealous
because Limahl is here-
-and he thinks she likes him and if he's
jealous, then he needs some time off...
You must show some consideration. The
military can't be that important, can it?
Not more important than
young love and happiness?
Don't give me too much, too much
Too much trouble
Too much too, you
give me too much trouble
Too much, too much
too much trouble
Too much too, you
give me too much trouble
Too much, too much
too much trouble
Too much too, you
give me too much trouble
Too much, too much
too much trouble
Too much too, you
give me too much trouble
Too much trouble I said...
- Stevie?
- Tell me, what is it between you and Limahl?
Oh, now I get it! You gave
Limahl the Blue Tyrant-
-but I thought you were lying on the hatch!
- You sure hoped so.
- What did you do yesterday?
- We drove Tina home, Othello.
The newspaper said that you
and Limahl were practically married!
Limahl is at the bakery!
- He doesn't have the demon.
- The general is very angry.
You have been granted
permission! You owe me a favor.
- Yes, yes.
- You know, it still didn't work...
I would get to perform,
but now my demo is gone!
Come on. do you
know if i could conjure-
- then I would just stick
my hand in my pocket and...
- My demo!
- Absolutely incredible!
- You have Limahl's jacket!
- Come on, what are you waiting for?
We must begin!
Limahl unfortunately
cannot perform tonight-
-he has an important tour of
Germany's bakeries ahead of him-
-but instead a young
lady has jumped in!
She has a song that is so
new that I don't know it myself.
If I could go to heaven
that's not what I'd do
If you think it's
good that I feel so too
I believe in love and
say, Baby we've just met
I'm sick of your jokes
And you haven't got a clue
If you've heard me
singing That's all I wanna do
Don't be so cruel Can't
you see I'm in misery?
Do you? Do you feel the motion?
I keep on to my devotion
I do not know Do I go to
far when I'm asking for...
For a chance?
Music is dancing like
the Devil in my head
You won't try to tell me
that the Devil drives me mad
I need to have more peace
Give me one more chance
I would be an angel
for the rest of my life
If you let me sing on
the music channel five
Don't be so hard and
agree it's an emergency
Do you? Do you feel the motion?
I keep on to my devotion
I do not know Do I go to
far when I'm asking for...
For a chance?
Only for an hour
It's for an hour
I do not know Do I go to
far when I'm asking for...
When I'm asking for a chance?
Do you? Do you feel the motion?
I keep on to my devotion
Do you? Do you feel the motion?
I keep on to my devotion
Do you? Do you feel the motion?
I keep on to my devotion
Do you? Do you feel the motion?
I keep on to my devotion
