Nach Haus

This 15-track collection spans a generous 79 minutes, offering a rich tapestry of genres including singer-songwriter, schlager, neue deutsche welle, and German pop. The album is a deeply personal journey through Mey's life, with twelve of the tracks being his own compositions, many of which draw heavily from his autobiography.

Mey, known for his storytelling prowess, delves into his past with tracks like "Beef und Lobster," a poignant narrative about an aging waiter, and "Zwischen Kontrollpunkt Drewitz und der Brücke von Dreilinden," a reflective look back at the German reunification. The album also features a mix of introspective and satirical elements, as seen in the grotesque and satirically over-the-top "Miserere mei."

For collectors, there's a special edition CD that comes with a photobook, adding a tangible keepsake to the auditory experience. This album is a testament to Mey's enduring talent and his ability to connect with audiences through his heartfelt and often humorous lyrics.
