Here you can find the song “Women”

The lyrics
women make us strong
Women are like a tailwind
women laugh out loud
Women give you a child.

Oh, women are so dependable
Women are simply irreplaceable in this world
Oh, women are always at the start
Women go their own way

Women have it hard, take it easy
have already achieved a lot on their own
are calibrated to woman as a child.
When is a woman a woman?

On March 24th, Grönemeyer will release his 16th studio album under the title “That’s going on” publish. One of his defining albums was “Person”on which he appeared 20 years ago in the song of the same name as well as in “The way” discussed the death of his wife. When asked in the OÖN interview whether he regretted sharing her death with the audience, he said: “No. I don’t think I shared the grief either, but addressed grief. One mustn’t forget that although I’m known in Germany, I’m also a little strange to some people. And yet I felt a great deal of sympathy. My songs didn’t ask that someone help me, they asked: What is that actually, what world are you entering then? Grief is a part of our lives – like happiness. Those songs were the only way to get back on my feet. I recently met the actress Johanna von Koczian. She told me that the song “Der Weg” gave her courage when her husband died. I’m happy about that, that’s what music is for. But I don’t want to be arrested for that role.”
