Promotion, release and booklet

The song was used as the theme song for the eighth season of Popstars Du & Ich. Also, it was performed by former contestants. The version by Some & Any alone was released as digital download only; the two other versions of the song can also be downloaded. The CD includes all three different versions. The booklet can be folded to three different covers to show each duo that recorded the song.

Video

The music video included all three finalist duos and many other young people and was shot over several nights in Vienna. The videos shows all of them running through the city of Vienna at night, with flashlights. Most of the people give up the race or fail, so at the end there is only Vanessa and Leo left, showing that they are the winning duo.[1] The other two versions of the video show the other duos, Elif Demirezer & Niklas Dennin and Dagmara Woszczek & Daniel Dausner, winning the race. The clothes worn in the video represent not only the genre of their music but also the rebellion of the video. The video was released along with the CD and digital download on December 11, 2009.

gollark: Well, I wanted to automatically play per-person theme music upon entry of people to the computer science department at school.
gollark: It's not particularly evil, since it will only be used to identify opting-in things.
gollark: But I skimmed a paper on it and apparently the randomization can be workarounded in some cases by sending RTS frames with the device's "hardcoded" MAC address and seeing if you get a CTS frame back.
gollark: This would have been doable by just checking the MAC address against a list several years ago, but evil beeoids also did this so now phones and such have randomization.
gollark: Well, for convoluted reasons, I want to detect known devices within wireless range.
