"Both the English and German versions tell about two children who buy 99 balloons at a toy shop and release them into the air, where faulty East German radar equipment registers the balloons as incoming weapons. The government immediately put their troops on red alert and scrambles fighter jets to intercept, which ultimately triggers a nuclear war between East and West."

The song could have been more beautiful in meaning if it had a more realistic approach to the topic.

 

EDIT: Whoa, totally forgot this thread was about your girlfriend. Congratulations on 4 years, man! =D I hope your balloon fest went/goes well! How the hell did you fill 99 balloons? I would run out of breath after probably 3... :P
