About Achterbahn

"Achterbahn" (English: ″Rollercoaster″) is a song by German recording artist Helene Fischer. It was written by Konstantin Scherer, Nico Santos, Vincent Stein, Wim Treuner, and Robin Haefs for her self-titled eighth studio album (2017), while production was helmed by trio Madizin, consisting of Patrick Benzner, Dave Roth, and Serhat Sakin, and Silverjam. Taking Fischer's music work further away from the schlager genre, the uplifting dance pop song is built around a synthesizer instrumentation and features slight Auto-Tune vocal effects. Lyrically, it details its narrator's feelings towards her lover which she compares with a roller coaster ride. The song was released as the third single from Helene Fischer on 20 October 2017 and became Fischer's third top ten hit on the German Singles Chart, peaking at number ten. It also became her fourth and third top forty entry on the singles charts in Austria and Switzerland, respectively. Dutch DJ Afrojack was consulted to produce additional remixes of the song, which appeared on a digital extended play. The only single from Helene Fischer to be accompanied by a music video, Fischer collaborated with director Kim Willecke on the colorful visuals which were filmed at the Babelsberg Studio in September 2017.

In meinem Kopf ist eine Achterbahn!

Ich schlaf' alleine ein, wach' alleine auf
Und dazwischen träum' ich von dir
Tagein, tagaus der gleiche Tagesablauf
Ich frag' mich, ob du überhaupt existierst

Doch alle sagen
Dass man die besten Dinge findet, wenn man sie nicht sucht
Die Antwort auf alle Fragen
Mein Hauptgewinn, ja, das bist du

Auf einmal stehst du da und lachst mich an
In meinem Kopf ist eine Achterbahn
Alles um uns wird still, keine Menschen mehr
Und die Lichter strahlen in tausend Farben
Sag mal, spürst du das auch? Gefühle außer Plan
In meinem Kopf ist eine Achterbahn
Völlig abgehoben, keine Schwerkraft mehr
Nur noch du und ich und ein Lichtermeer

Und ein Lichtermeer
Gefühle außer Plan
Wie in 'ner Achterbahn
Gefühle außer Plan
Wie in 'ner Achterbahn

Das ist mein neues Ich, es strahlt in neuem Licht
So wie ein Feuerwerk zum neuen Jahr
Nur du und ich, was anderes brauch' ich nicht
Wenn man dran glaubt, dann werden Träume wahr

Ja, alle sagen
Dass man die besten Dinge findet, wenn man sie nicht sucht
Nach all den einsamen Jahren
Macht alles einen Sinn und der bist du

Auf einmal stehst du da und lachst mich an
In meinem Kopf ist eine Achterbahn
Alles um uns wird still, keine Menschen mehr
Und die Lichter strahlen in tausend Farben
Sag mal, spürst du das auch? Gefühle außer Plan
In meinem Kopf ist eine Achterbahn
Völlig abgehoben, keine Schwerkraft mehr
Nur noch du und ich und ein Lichtermeer

Und ein Lichtermeer
Gefühle außer Plan
Wie in 'ner Achterbahn
Gefühle außer Plan
Wie in 'ner Achterbahn

In meinem Kopf ist eine Achterbahn
Gefühle außer Plan
In meinem Kopf ist eine Achterbahn

Sag mal, spürst du das?
Sag mal, spürst du das?
Sag mal, spürst du das auch? Keine Schwerkraft mehr
Nur noch du und ich und ein Lichtermeer
Und ein Lichtermeer!

In meinem Kopf ist eine Achterbahn
