The singer Stefanie Kloß explains her personal connection with the song in the press release: “When I sing this song, I think of my father, because his death has shown me how suddenly someone who was important to you is simply no longer there. That is why it is all the more important to cherish every minute and just be happy to have people around you who are there for you. "

Video

The shooting of the music video for Das Beste in September 2006 in a circus was directed by the German director Daniel Siegler.

The video begins with the lighting of the lights of the Circus Aramannt . The circus employees are made up of an acrobat, a ringmaster, a ticket seller, a juggler, a helper and a little girl. Only when the band members from Silbermond appear, who are supposed to represent good spirits and cannot be seen by the employees, they succeed in their work again. Only the little girl, who has not yet noticed the bad times of the circus, can see the good spirits. The video then ends with the lights going out.
