Von hier an blind is the second album by Wir sind Helden, released on 4 April 2005 in Germany. The album entered the German top 100 album charts at #1 on 18 April and remained in the top 10 for twenty weeks. It also reached #1 in Austria, and #5 in Switzerland. The album also reached #16 on the iTunes' US album charts. Four singles have been released from the album: "Gekommen um zu bleiben", "Nur ein Wort", "Von hier an blind" and "Wenn es passiert". The CD's enhanced CD section features a couple of short videos from the production of the album. Following the album's success in Germany and Austria, Wir sind Helden recorded several songs from the album in English, French and Japanese, for possible releases in non-German-speaking countries. "Sā Itte Miyō", a Japanese version of "Von hier an blind", was released as a B-side on the "Von hier an blind" single. The entire artwork for the album as well as for the singles was designed by Berlin illustrator Vanessa Karr. It was modeled after parts from the comic book Tintin in Tibet by Belgian artist Hergé, who died in 1983. Notably, the video for the album's title single "Von hier an blind" is in the same style.
