Thomas Anders

The German pop and pop singer, music producer, songwriter and TV presenter Thomas Anders was born Bernd Weidung in Mörz on March 1, 1963. Even before leaving school, Thomas Anders was already musically active, recording songs and making his first television appearances. However, great success only came when he and music producer Dieter Bohlen formed the duo Modern Talking in the fall of 1984 and the song "You're My Heart, You're My Soul" reached number one in the German-language charts almost overnight in January 1985. Until the official separation of Modern Talking in 2003, Anders continued to launch various solo projects, such as his Spanish album Barcos de Cristal from 1994, which reached number 1 in the charts in Argentina. After numerous gold and platinum records and number one in over 18 countries together with Bohlen, Anders initially produces the pop girl duo It-Girls and the girl band No Angels with their song "Cry for You", among others. in 2004, he released his solo album This Time, which was unable to match the success of Modern Talking. Nevertheless, his singles reach the charts in Russia, Turkey and Germany. His album Songs Forever, released in 2006, reached number 46 in the German charts. In the following years, he tried his hand at pop and house music and released Weihnachtssong. A duet with the German pop singer Sandra was placed in the German singles charts in spring 2009. A new pop/dance album entitled Strong reached number 2 in the Russian charts in 2010. As the duo Anders | Fahrenkrog, the album Two is released in 2011 and reaches number 11 in the German album charts. His first German-language album, entitled Pures Leben, followed in April 2017. A joint project with pop star Florian Silbereisen takes Anders to number 1 in all German-language album charts in 2020 under the title Das Album.
