Editor's note

Thomas Anders, the voice of Modern Talking

From German pop sensation to solo work, his voice defined an era of European dance music.

For the full Modern Talking effect, start with "You're My Heart, You're My Soul." His solo track "Ready For Romance" shows how he carried that sound forward.

If you heard European radio in the mid-80s, you heard Thomas Anders. Modern Talking's "You're My Heart, You're My Soul" wasn't just a hit, it was everywhere, the kind of song that got stuck in heads from Berlin to Bangkok. That voice carried through the duo's run and into solo tracks like "Ready For Romance," keeping a certain synth-pop spirit alive even after the charts moved on.

Things clicked when he met producer Dieter Bohlen in 1984, forming Modern Talking. After their split in 1987, Anders recorded solo material including "Es Geht Mir Gut Heut Nacht." The duo reunited in 1998 for another five-year stretch before calling it quits again.

Archive material and source history

Thomas Anders was born Bernd Weidung in Münstermaifeld, Germany in 1963. He started performing as a teenager with a band called Different, but things changed when he met producer Dieter Bohlen in 1984. Together they formed Modern Talking, a duo that would define much of his career.

Modern Talking's first single "You're My Heart, You're My Soul" became a massive hit across Europe and beyond in 1984. They followed it with several more chart successes before tensions between Anders and Bohlen led to the duo splitting up in 1987.

After Modern Talking ended, Anders worked on solo material including songs like "Ready For Romance" and "Es Geht Mir Gut Heut Nacht." Modern Talking reunited in 1998 for several more years of recording and touring before dissolving again in 2003.
