"Don't You Turn Your Back on Me" is the fourth single by Guano Apes. It was released to promote the film Meschugge in 1999. Despite the video's heavy rotation on various music channels, the single charted in their native Germany at number 50, which is one of the reasons the song was not included in their 2000 album Don't Give Me Names . The music video marked a new look for lead singer Sandra, who dyed her blonde hair jet black.
