Flieger (English translation: "Flyers") was the German entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1989, performed in German by Nino de Angelo.
The song was performed twenty-first on the night (following Iceland's Daníel Ágúst with Það Sem Enginn Ser and preceding Yugoslavia's Riva with Rock Me). At the close of voting, it had received 46 points, placing 14th in a field of 22.
The song is a ballad, with de Angelo expressing his desire to return to a past time when he and a lover were together - a period he likens to flying through the sky.
It was succeeded as German representative at the 1990 Contest by Chris Kempers & Daniel Kovac with Frei Zu Leben.
