Another German pop star. This kicks off better than the previous one anyway, though after Hairy Lee I'm somewhat over-ballad-ed and this starts with a ballad. Ah well, room for one more, eh? It's a good one, and it's also the title track. And a second ballad. But again, a very good one. Okay, I see he was in a boyband prior to going solo, and the next track certainly has that feel about it. Youssou N'Dour adds some class to the fourth track, but it is weird when the whole thing is sung in German, apart from, well some parts, which are sung in English. Good horns certainly, and I like “Worte”, though there's that ****ing squeaky voice again in the background. Not a bad pop album, certainly better than I had expected. Maybe a few too many ballads, but we won't hold that against him. Certainly doesn't deserve the ****ty rating. Some people are just ****s.

Check out more from this artist? Doubt it
