The group was formed in 1988 by singer, songwriter, and keyboard player Jascha Richter (b. 1963) alongside drummer Kare Wanscher (b. 1969), guitarist and producer Mikkel Lentz (b. 1968), and Soren Madsen (b. 1967) in Aarhus, Denmark. The group now consists of three members, with the rest parting ways with Madsen. The group started as a little cafe band, but they soon won the annual talent contest in Aarhus in July 1988. MLTR signed with one of the judges, JP Andersen, as their new manager, and the group got a recording deal with Medley Records, who later became a part of EMI.
MLTR's eponymous first album hit the top 5 of the album charts in both Denmark and Norway, selling tens of thousands of copies over and over again. Since that international debut in September 1991, with 'Michael Learns To Rock' being a sensation, the group has sold more than 12 million legal albums, and it has been performing ever since. Their song catalog continues to be very popular as well, with many singles sold online. Since 'Michael Learns To Rock' came out, they have released 'Colours' (1993), 'Played on Pepper' (1995), 'Nothing to Lose' (1997), 'Michael Learns to Rock - Greatest Hits' (1999), 'Blue Night' (2000), 'Take Me to Your Heart' / 'Michael Learns to Rock' (2004), 'The Best Of Michael Learns To Rock – Live' (2007), and 'Eternity' (2008).
MLTR is one of the most popular bands in their homeland. Thanks to social media such as YouTube and Facebook, MLTR's fan-base continues to grow worldwide. They're unusual for a European group in that they have strong popularity both in Asia (particularly China and India) as well as several Anglo-American nations.

Michael Learns to Rock Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She is the girl and I really want to make her mine
I'm searching everywhere to find her again
To tell her I love her
And I'm sorry 'bout the things I've done
I find her standing in front of the church
The only place in town where I didn't search
She looks so happy in her wedding dress
Boy I missed your kisses all the time but
This is twenty five minutes too late
Though travelled so far
Boy I'm sorry you are
Twenty five minutes too late
Against the wind I'm going home again
Wishing me back to time when we were more than friends
But I still see her in front of the church
The only place in town where I didn't search
She looked so happy in her wedding dress
But she's cried while she was saying this
Boy I missed your kisses all the time but
This is twenty five minutes too late
Though travelled so far
Boy I'm sorry you are
Twenty five minutes too late
Out in the streets
Places where hungry hearts have nothing to eat
Inside my head still I can hear the words she said
Boy I missed your kisses all the time but
This is twentyfive minutes too late
Though travelled so far
Boy I'm sorry you are
Twenty five minutes too late
Boy I missed your kisses all the time but
This is twentyfive minutes too late
Though travelled so far
Boy I'm sorry you are
Twenty five minutes too late
I can still hear her say
The lyrics of Michael Learns to Rock's song 25 Minutes tell a story about a man realizing his love for a woman too late. He has finally made up his mind that she is the woman he wants to be with, and he searches all over town to find her again. He eventually finds her in front of the church, wearing her wedding dress and looking happy, but crying at the same time. She tells him that she missed his kisses all the time, but he is twenty-five minutes too late, as she is already getting married.
The song is a poignant reminder of how missed opportunities can have a lasting impact on our lives. It highlights the sadness that comes with realizing that we have missed our chance to be with the person we truly love, and how this realization can haunt us forever. The lyrics also portray the idea that love and timing are two important factors in any relationship and that sometimes it takes too long to figure this out.

After sometimes I’ve finally made up my mind
After much contemplation, I have finally decided
She is the girl and I really want to make her mine
I am certain that she is the one for me and I want to be with her
I'm searching everywhere to find her again
I am searching every possible place to find her
To tell her I love her
To express my love for her
And I'm sorry 'bout the things I've done
I regret the things I have done in the past
I find her standing in front of the church
I happen to find her in front of the church
The only place in town where I didn't search
I had searched everywhere in town except for this place
She looks so happy in her wedding dress
She appears to be very happy in her wedding dress
But she's crying while she's saying this
Despite her happiness, she is crying as she speaks
Boy I missed your kisses all the time but
I have been longing for your kisses all this time but
This is twenty five minutes too late
You are too late by 25 minutes
Though travelled so far
Despite travelling a long distance
Boy I'm sorry you are
I am sorry for you
Twenty five minutes too late
You are 25 minutes too late
Against the wind I'm going home again
I am heading back home, against the wind
Wishing me back to time when we were more than friends
I wish we were still more than just friends
But I still see her in front of the church
I still see her in front of the same church
She looked so happy in her wedding dress
She looked very happy in her wedding gown
But she's cried while she was saying this
But despite her happiness, she was crying at that moment
Out in the streets
Out in the streets
Places where hungry hearts have nothing to eat
Places where people with unfulfilled desires reside
Inside my head still I can hear the words she said
I can still hear the words she spoke echoing in my head
Boy I missed your kisses all the time but
I have been missing your kisses all this while but
This is twenty five minutes too late
You are 25 minutes too late
Though travelled so far
Although I have traveled a long distance
Boy I'm sorry you are
I am sorry for you
Twenty five minutes too late
You are 25 minutes too late
Boy I missed your kisses all the time but
I have been longing for your kisses all this time but
This is twenty five minutes too late
You are 25 minutes too late
Though travelled so far
Despite covering much distance
Boy I'm sorry you are
I am sorry for you
Twenty five minutes too late
You are 25 minutes too late
I can still hear her say
I can still hear her voice
