His magnum opus

I find this under noted here shamefully, a mere six reviews ... shame shame!

This album keeps up with its legends (I wanted to sing like Orpheus, above the clouds, diplomats Hunting, arrivals Friday 13th, the murderer is always the gardener, etc.) or in terms of claim, it exceeds them already.

Class songs that are part of every German CD collection undoubtedly "In Hempel's under the bed", "In this, unsrem landing" "All good things come in threes" and the rest of the disc .... but two.

These two, who also represent ballads in the best sense, this album fully lift from the "yes well is great, five stars, the next case" evaluation up to the Olympus of eternal classic:
1. "The sea" ... goosebumps guaranteed Mey sings aptly, beautiful, but also scathing about the same time the arrogant and intemperate stupid handling of man with nature, about the criminal mistreatment and demystifying this last untamed habitat. Can Mey still outperform? Yes, he can, even on the same album:
2. "The railroad ballad": Mey doing what he does best, only here he does it best, he says. A story told with the apparent naivety of an inexperienced, honest man who drifts in thinking about the train and its development since its invention, the struggle, the struggling, the dynamics of the economy, which is oiled with the blood of the workers ... and before you know it, Mey has here in 10 minutes, of which not a second is boring, where one is never tried, fast forward, suddenly, seen through the eyes of the train, a very different story ... that, our country , with a tribute to the proportion which the web at our so obvious wealth .... material as liberal, has.
Finally, with an optimistic, incredibly moving epilogue ...

"... And a hope was above the new day, and in the sunrise."
