I like this song very much, it has some sort of power that lets me listen to it again and again. I got only a little problem understanding spoken/sung german and most of the german songs just don't sound properly in english. BTW does anybody know if these lyrics are by In Extremo or are they just singing an existing text? Is it my failing memory or is it true that F. Schiller has written a similiar (or exactly this one) ballade? :) Ah, and it's quite a nice thing to make a little drama act based on the situation described ;) |

| Huns & Dr. Beeker – Ghost Town Lyrics | 17 years ago |

It's a damn sad song and for me it's hard to interpret it without consideration of its original context, the Chernobyl tragedy. In fact the lyrics describe the first days after the meltdown - people knowing nothing about the accident, fire brigades that've been sent to extinguish the fire getting fried by gamma rays, the deadly light seen from the the air and the effects of the meltdown - deserted wasteland where towns and villages once were. The first time I've heard this song was in the short movie from abandoned Pripryat, the city near Chernie nuclear power plant. And these two movies (in fact the whole Elena Filatovna's website about that tragedy) along with that track threw me into one of these sad and melancholic moods.
