6039. Nena - Engel der Nacht
 |
| From: Eisbrecher; Year: 1986; Genre: Neue Deutsche Welle/Rock/Pop |
Apparently it has been quite a while since I chose a song from Nena, (both the band and Nena Kerner as a solo artist), and after hearing some of their music the other day I really felt like I should choose one from today's pick.
Even though this album, which was the "swansong" record for the band, was considered a commercial failure, for me, looking back, I still like it a lot; something about their sound from that time in particular I find personally endearing. All of the key ingredients were present for the disc to be great, in my opinion it is, but not their best. This song in particular was written by the songwriting duo Fahrenkrog and Karges, who were also responsible for the band's biggest hits.
Whatever the case, it's still a 1980s classic and definitely should be in the collection of fans of the band.
