"Niemals" (Never) is a song by Farin Urlaub Racing Team. It's the second single and the seventh track from Farin Urlaub's third solo studio album Die Wahrheit übers Lügen. The song is about narrator's understanding, that his love for someone will be unrequited, though it's hard to give it up.

Music video

Farin is in a hotel room and is trying to call a woman, who, at the time the phone rings, is in the bathtub with her head underwater. A small puddle of blood is seen on the floor. The woman soon gets out of the bathtub and sees a message on her phone. She (presumably) calls back and listens Farin sing, although she doesn't react to it. She then ignites a picture of Farin; at the same time he throws the phone to a painting, smashing the glass and then, taking his guitar and jacket, leaves the hotel room. The woman is then seen putting on a bunny costume and holding a knife in her hand while on the phone. The last scene shows the woman lowering the phone after Farin and his band is seen stepping on an elevator.
