Schrei nach Liebe by die Ärzte from 1993, German punk band. Everybody that ist Like 60 or younger knows that song. Well, maybe not if you're in your teens...

Wanted to complain, but damn already over 30 years indeed

I would say, that even the teens know it, but considering how a lot of them lack even knowledge about some of Germans most iconic cultural achievements(I literally know people that didnt even heard about "Werner") I'm not to sure about it. But I can agree, its an absolute Banger Song.

I would have said Westerland is even more well known
