Garderobe translates to "cloakroom" or "wardrobe". While it might seem like an everyday word, its usage in this song is quite interesting and metaphorical.
The lyrics say, "Komm, wir geben die Kontrolle ab / Wie 'ne Jacke an der Garderobe" (Come, let's give up control / Like a jacket at the cloakroom). This vivid imagery suggests a complete surrender of worries and inhibitions, much like casually handing over a jacket when entering a venue. It's a unique way to express letting go and embracing freedom, making it a memorable word in the context of the song's theme of liberation and self-discovery.
"Sexy" is Silbermond's song about breaking free from routine and feeling good in your own skin. It opens with the idea of starting over: leaving the city, taking a late train, chasing the daily grind away, and letting go of the need to control everything.
For Silbermond, "sexy" isn't about looks. It's about that feeling of being at ease with yourself and with someone else, of doing each other good, and of being exactly the way you were made. The chorus repeats that feeling like a mantra: we feel sexy, we feel good, good the way we were created.
The bridge lists the small things that build up to that feeling: a night out, music, being with friends, and being close to someone you love. All of it adds up to feeling fully like yourself, at maximum, with nothing held back.
