Nena's song "99 Luftballons" provoked a cultural dilemma when Americans realized that "Luftballon" did not mean "Red Balloon" as commonly translated, but "Air Balloon." Americans grew suspicious of what other kind of balloon than air Germany had discovered, nearly resulting in global nuclear war as the song itself had prophesied. In the end, it turned out the alternative was merely "Staubballon," just like any American dust-balloon.

I think my new favourite song just came from my history teacher 😭

It's called 99 luftballoons (99 red balloons) and it's actually so good. It's related to the cold war, and the basic premise is some children let out red balloons into the sky, and nuclear destruction follows.
