About this album

Sound: "A vibrant blend of pop rock and synth-infused melodies that echo nostalgia while exploring contemporary themes."

Where they were

Released on September 28, 2007, 'Cover Me' marked Nena's return to the music scene after a long hiatus since her last studio album in 1999. This album was part of her artistic reinvention, showcasing a mix of original songs and covers that reflect her enduring influence in the German pop landscape.

Why it matters

'Cover Me' gained attention for its modern reinterpretations of classic songs alongside Nena's originals, demonstrating her ability to bridge generations. The album's lead single 'Astronaut' received significant airplay and charted well in Germany, reinforcing Nena's status as a pop icon nearly three decades after her breakthrough with '99 Luftballons.'
