Wikipedia article
"'Was zhlt'" ('What counts') is a song by Die Toten Hosen. It's the first single and the third track from the album 'Auswrtsspiel'.
The song is an ode to love ("Wenn nur die Liebe zhlt" - 'When only love matters'), as it describes, how one can go through anything and suffer a lot for love, also give up any memories for it.
Music video
The music video was directed by Ralf Schmerberg. It shows the band performing the song in a room in a city building. Also the streets outside are shown, which are overflowing with police, as the video was shot a while after the September 11 attacks.
