Otto Waalkes, a comedy legend, and Helene Fischer, a pop queen, have teamed up to create a remake of the internationally popular children's song "Baby Shark." The collaboration is the lead single from Helene Fischer's upcoming children's album Die schönsten Kinderlieder (Tanzen & Feiern), set to release on September 12[1][2][4].
In the music video, Otto appears in three different roles—as a baby dressed in baby clothes inside a cartoon baby carriage pushed by Helene, a grandmother wearing a hat, glasses, and dress, and a grandfather with a grey beard and sleeveless vest[1]. The video is set in an animated underwater world, exemplifying Otto's comedic legacy along with Helene's approachable performance style, making the song enjoyable for both children and adults[2].

Their version of the song is expected to be an absolute highlight from Helene's new album and a significant part of the album[3][2].
