5.0 out of 5 stars Review By a Philippine Nena Fan Who Understands German, July 23, 2002

By

This review is from: Tausend Sterne (Audio CD)

This is the fourth Nena traditional German folk songs album and its main objective is to provide songs for sleeping and dreaming. Although there are several song titles on this album which have appeared in either the first or the second of Nena's traditional German folk songs albums( i.e. KOMM, LIEBER MAI and UNSER APFELHAUS, respectively ), all of the tracks here are new. The new versions of the previous song titles are very distinct, not only in the manner in which they are performed, but because they also include more stanzas of the traditional German folk songs in some cases. Furthermore, there are six songs which have never been released by Nena before this album( i.e. "La Le Lu", "Kleine Taschenlampe brenn'", "Alles still", "Kindlein mein", "Abendstille", and "Nun ruhen alle Waelder" ). Please take note that the final track which contains the song "Der Mond ist aufgegangen" also includes an additional short song after it which might be entitled "Muede bin ich geh zur Ruh". Hence, for those of you who should decide to purchase this cd album, please let the final track complete itself and you will be able to enjoy that little bonus added by Nena. I have listened to this album only a few days ago and really enjoyed it, without necessarily having to fall asleep, for it is also wonderful for easy listening. It has a very calming effect and the combination of Nena's wonderful voice and the musical arrangements of the tracks highly recommend it to persons of all ages. I will now translate the song titles from German to English and also indicate in which earlier Nena albums one can find the original versions of some of these tracks:

A. NENAS TAUSEND STERNE( "NENA'S THOUSAND STARS" )
1. Schlaflied( "Sleep Song" )--Original Version First Appeared in WUNDER GESCHEH'N
2. Schlaf Kindchen schlaf( "Sleep Little Children, Sleep" )--Original Version First Appeared in KOMM, LIEBER MAI
3. La Le Lu( "Lalelu" )
4. Kleine Taschenlampe brenn'( "Little Pocketlamp/Flashlight/Torch Burns/Lights Up" )
5. Guter Mond( Good Moon )--Original Version First Appeared in UNSER APFELHAUS
6. Alles still( "Everything Quiet" )
7. Weisst du wie viel Sternlein stehen?( "Do You Know How Many Little Stars Stand?" )--Original Version First Appeared in KOMM, LIEBER MAI
8. Kindlein mein( "My Little Child" )
9. Wer hat die schoensten Schaefchen?( "Who Has the Most Beautiful Little Sheep?" )--Original Version First Appeared in UNSER APFELHAUS
10. Abendstille( "Evening Silence" )
11. Nun ruhen alle Waelder( "Now All Forests Calm Down" )
12. Schlafe mein Prinzchen( "Sleep, My Little Prince" )--Original Version First Appeared in KOMM, LIEBER MAI
13. Guten Abend, gute Nacht( "Good Evening, Good Night" )--Original Version First Appeared in KOMM, LIEBER MAI
14. Sandmaennchen( "Little Sand Man" )--Original Version First Appeared in UNSER APFELHAUS
15. Der Mond ist aufgegangen( "The Moon Went Up/Rose" )--Original Version First Appeared in KOMM, LIEBER MAI

By the way, Nena performed with the German pop music band Pur the song "La Le Lu" in some of their live concerts together and performed the song "Kleine Taschenlampe brenn'" with the German singer Markus Moerl in the movie GIB GAS, ICH WILL SPASS. Hence, many Nena fans worldwide hoped that these songs, with only Nena performing them, would one day be available in produced cd and/or audiocassette format. Well, that day certainly did come with the release of NENAS TAUSEND STERNE.
Therefore, it is with extremely great enthusiasm that I very highly recommend this latest Nena cd album to all of you.

This is a great CD of songs that will mellow you out and rock any baby to sleep!
Although it is for kids, adults will probably find it very soothing too!
