"Dinge von denen" [Things of which] is a song by Die Ärzte. It's the fifth track on CD1 and the second single from their 2003 album Geräusch. It's about not wanting to hear of others doing wrong and/or gross things.
The video
The video is a parody of Eurovision Song Contest, it's also in greyscale. The video was filmed in a copy of the decoration of the German game show Dalli, Dalli (Hurry, hurry). The host in the video said after the song: "So, wir sind der Meinung, das war spitze" (now, in our opinion, that was great), in reference to the sentence of the Dalli, Dalli host Hans Rosenthal. He also jumped in the air and the jump was frozen, like Rosental in his show. The introduction, after the intro and before the song, was a parody on the introduction for the 60's music show Beatclub, made by Wilhelm Wieben.
There are two versions of the video, Bela is not in the first one but in the second, where he is coming too late to the performance of the band.
