Eigentlich immer
Max Mutzke Lyrics

The lyrics to Max Mutzke's song Eigentlich immer speak to the artist's devotion to a particular person. He conveys his trust in fate and his desire to give more to this person, but acknowledges that he is easily distracted by their presence. He finds himself unable to think of anything else and sets the person as a trend in his life, spending his time following them to the beach and watching them from afar. He is so mesmerized by their beauty that he can't help but sing their praises- declaring that they are always beautiful and always captivating.

In these lyrics, Mutzke is expressing the intense emotions of being in love, being enchanted, and being consumed by one person. The repeated "du du du" underscores the obsessive thoughts he is having about this person, further emphasizing the singular, all encompassing nature of his love. The lines "Du bist wieder in der Gegend, Kann über nichts mehr anderes reden" serve as a powerful metaphor, highlighting how one's obsession with someone can render all other parts of their life unimportant or dull.

One interesting fact about the song is that it was released in 2004 as part of Mutzke's second album "Max Mutzke" which had great commercial success throughout Europe. The song was also released as the third single, cementing its popularity. Additionally, Eigentlich immer was the German entry for Eurovision Song Contest in 2004, reaching 8th place. Furthermore, the song was written by David Jost and Sarah Connor and was initially intended to be recorded by Connor herself but eventually decided to give the song to Mutzke. Another interesting factor about the song is that it was heavily inspired by the music of Stevie Wonder, who Mutzke has cited as one of his biggest inspirations. And on the topic of inspiration, the music video for the song was filmed in California and was inspired by the Mod Squad and the movie Bullitt.
