Background notes
Archive material and source history
Gary Lux was a German band that formed in East Berlin during the 1980s. The group was led by singer-songwriter Christian Dörge, and their name came from a New York discotheque. Their music responded to the social and political climate of that time in East Germany.
In 1987 they released "Kinder dieser Welt," which became their most recognizable song. It spoke about hope and tolerance, and it connected with listeners in both East and West Germany. Another track, "Nur Noch Gefühl," appeared in their catalog as well.
The band faced some censorship in East Germany, where authorities considered their material too political. They kept working despite that, putting out albums like Herzen aus Gold in 1991 and Zeit für Wunder in 2000. Their lineup changed at different points, with various musicians contributing over time.
