5.0 out of 5 stars Review from a Philippine Nena Fan Who Knows German, June 4, 2001

By 

Glenn (San Juan, Metropolitan Manila, Philippines) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Nena (Audio CD)

This is the first album of the original Nena band, whose members were Gabrielle Susanne "Nena" Kerner( Vocals ), Rolf Brendel( Drums ), Uwe Fahrenkrog-Petersen( Keyboards ), Juergen Dehmel( Bass ), and Carlo Karges( Lead Guitar ). It contains the following songs:

1. Kino 2. Indianer 3. Vollmond 4. Nur getraeumt 5. Tanz auf dem Vulkan 6. 99 Luftballons 7. Zaubertrick 8. Einmal ist keinmal 9. Leuchtturm 10. Ich bleib' im Bett 11. Noch einmal 12. Satellitenstadt

The most popular song of this album is undoubtedly "99 Luftballons", which became a number one hit worldwide in 1984. It is currently still the only German-language pop hit to ever achieve this status. Although I personally like every song found in this album, the songs "Kino", "Vollmond", "Nur getraeumt", and "Leuchtturm" particularly stand out as excellent songs for me. Therefore, I highly recommend this album to everyone--both Nena and non-Nena fans alike.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nena!, May 7, 2004

Mærou "Mærou" (United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Nena (Audio CD)

Nena has to be one of the best singers to come out of Germany! (Isn't she the only one? Hmm...) I love Nena and all of her music! I definetly recommend buying this album in Addition to Fragezeichen! (Don't buy the US release of 99 Luftballons.. no lyrics :-( cheaply made)
