Overview

Frank Zander is a phenomenon: he combines change and consistency like probably no other artist on the German music scene. In the 70s, he attracted attention as the gloomy Nick-Nack-Man, at the beginning of the 80s he landed his biggest hit with the kitschy and cheerful "Ja, wenn wir alle Englein wären", later he parodied the big city cowboy with "Hier kommt Kurt" and then brought tears to the eyes of even hardened soccer fans with the Hertha anthem "Nur nach Hause". On one of his CDs, he even follows in the footsteps of Rammstein and declares the German pop song dead.
