Release Notes:
--------------
After one year as vocalist for the Stripes (who disbanded after just
one unsuccessful album in 1980) Nena Kerner assembled a new band in
Berlin, called Nena, with herself as vocalist, Carlo Karges on
guitar, Uwe Fahrenkrog-Petersen on keyboards, Jⁿrgen Dehmel on bass,
and Rolf Brendel on drums. Their debut single "Nur GetrΣumt" became
a number one success in the German speaking countries after the
band's first TV appearance on the "Musikladen" TV program on August
21, 1982. From then on, however, Nena became one of the most
successful pop stars Germany had ever seen, including the unique
success of the original German language version of the second single
"99 Luftballons" in the U.S. in 1984. In mid-1985 however, for no
apparent reason, sales of Nena's next records and attendance numbers
on the 1985 tour dropped, which led to the eventual end of the band
in mid-1987.
Since 1989, Nena has consistently continued working as a solo
artist, releasing albums of songs composed mainly by herself and
befriended musicians she chooses as co-authors. She has chosen not
to have a permanent band (as had been the case in the '80s), neither
in the studio nor on tour. Her first solo tour came in 1993, then
pregnancies led to a minimum of live appearances (Nena has four
children) until 1997. Since then, she has been touring (mainly
Germany) once or twice a year (remarkably backed predominantly by
U.S. musicians in addition to Germans). Throughout the '90s, she was
to be seen regularly on German TV (including hosting a variety show
series called Metro during 1993). She has stayed true to her unique
musical blend of melodic vocals (reminiscent of Connie Francis)
paired with a rock style ranging from the variety of the Beatles to
the harder sounds of the Rolling Stones or even the Ramones (with
the harder rock sound being her preferred style when on tour). Since
1990, she has also additionally made a number of albums specifically
for children and done voiceovers or contributed songs to cartoon
movies and one cartoon series.
After her ambitious, electronic based album of 2001, Chokmah, failed
togarner deserved attention, in 2002 Nena decided to celebrate the
20th anniversary of her breakthrough with an album of new versions
of her hits, Nena Feat.Nena. To everyone's surprise, the audience
response was sensational, actually replicating the runaway success
of 20 years before. The following double album of new material in
2005, Willst Du Mit Mir Gehn, (half of which premiered a heavier
rock style) again went platinum, indicating that she had indeed
established a strong basis among a new audience
