Modern Talking '98
German pop duo MODERN TALKING are songwriter/ producer DIETER BOHLEN and singer
THOMAS ANDERS (real name BERND WEIDUNG). They had solo careers of minor success
in the early 80's before teaming up on the song "You're My Heart, You're My Soul"
which became an international smash hit in 1984. In the following years they released
6 albums and sold 60 Million copies worldwide. In 1987 the band, one of PET SHOP BOYS'
fave bands and major influences, split up, but their influence on the music scene is
still present today with acts such as AQUA or MR. PRESIDENT. In 1998 the band
made their comeback with a remix version of "You're My Heart, You're My Soul" and the
album "Back For Good" which entered the German album charts at No. 1. It mostly features
remixes of their biggest hits such as "Brother Louie", "Geronimo's Cadillac" and
"You Can Win If You Want" plus new songs including the ballad "I Will Follow You".
One year later they released yet another new album entitled "Alone" with 2 singles who
both became international hits, "You Are Not Alone" and "Sexy, Sexy Lover".
