First formed at the end of 1984 (Anders was 21), they unexpectedly became immensely popular with their standalone disco hit "You're My Heart, You're My Soul", which was then followed by "You Can Win If You Want" and "Cheri, Cheri Lady". They released two albums a year from 1985 to 1987 while also promoting their singles on television all over Europe. After splitting up in 1987, the duo reunited in 1998, at first only testing the waters with new versions of hit singles and again reaching the top of the charts unexpectedly. Bohlen and Anders split again in 2003 due to irreconcilable disagreements (they had never been friends in the first place). Thomas Anders started another solo career immediately, while Bohlen had by now begun devoting most of his time to new talents, especially those he discovered on the German edition of the TV show Pop Idol/American Idol.
Global sales of Modern Talking records were 120 million units, according to BMG in June 2003, and they have become the biggest-selling German music act in history, so far outselling even Frank Farian's projects Boney M and Milli Vanilli, Michael Cretu's Enigma, Sandra, the Scorpions, Snap! and Rammstein.
Modern Talking were successful in Europe, Asia, South America and some African countries. In the United Kingdom they reached the top ten only once with the song "Brother Louie" (in 1986, #4 UK). They did not feel very good about promoting their singles there due to being marketed in England as a gay group like Erasure and Culture Club. Indeed, in the UK "Brother Louie" is regarded by those who remember it as nothing more than a novelty record by a one-hit wonder.
They were almost unknown in North America by mainstream standards, never appearing in the charts there, and due to lack of backing from a record company and lack of time did not go there to promote their music. Composer Dieter Bohlen employed mood-evoking lyrics and intellectually-designed, synthesizer-based music which was out of vogue in the U.S. before Modern Talking even formed.
In 2006 Bohlen included a secret message in his song "Bizarre Bizarre" which was played backwards: "There will never be an end to Modern Talking". However, Bohlen said "he meant to say that the music of Modern Talking will live forever" [4]. Anders has kept the Modern Talking songs in his repertoire and produced songs in a similar vein for his solo records ("Independent Girl"). In 2006 he produced an album of Swing and Jazz versions of popular songs (including Modern Talking's first hit). Bohlen has written two autobiographical books, one of which also detailed Modern Talking's history from his perspective, and sold a million copies in Germany. The sequel was heavily criticised for his unfairness towards the people he worked with. As a result of that, he withdrew from the public for a year until 2006, when he said he regretted putting out the second book. Anders had not been the only one pressing charges against Bohlen and demanding that sections of the book be modified.
You Are Not Alone
Modern Talking Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And if you feel the same way too
Just close your eyes
You're not alone
C'mmon!
C'mmon!
Wave your hands in the air!
If I took the time to put you in my rhyme
Let me tell you right there, you're a friend of mine
And I used to getting close if you catch me a time
We can do it like this with the twist of lime
Always on my mind, not the freak of the week
Take the words I speak, to every soul I reach
Hold tight with your touch on the microphone
As you're not just here, you are not alone!
You are not alone - I'll be there for you
You are not alone - anything I'll do
You are not alone - you're the one for me
You are not alone - it's no tragedy
You are not alone - you're the one for me
You are not alone - nothing comes for free
You are not alone
Wave your hands in the air
Let me hear you scream!
Come into my life, let me hold you, mold you
Got so many things that I prob'ly never told you
Never scold you, try to unfold you
Exlose you, someone's cast I even old you
If I told you I'm giving you my heart
You must have playing smart
Then you're tearing me apart
All night long to the early-early morning
Pick up the phone - you're not alone!
If you know what I feel
And if you feel the same way too
Just close your eyes
And feel me inside of you
Everybody in the house - c'mmon!
Yeah, it's a national thing
I wanna solve in your dream I'll offer a bill
That Thomas is cool, but I'm on your case
With your incredible pace
So when I entered the place
Meet you to see my face
We're making up all the hits
So baby, bottom o' your lip
I will be sinking your ship
Like gotta sliding a bit
Extra logic get time on the night perform
Baby, scratch to the bone - you're never alone!

If you know what I feel
If you can empathize with me and understand what I'm going through
And if you feel the same way too
And if you share the same feelings with me
Just close your eyes
Simply shut your eyes to visualize what's happening
You're not alone
You're not by yourself in this, I'm with you
C'mmon!
Come on, let's do this!
C'mmon!
Come on, one more time, let's do this!
Wave your hands in the air!
Lift your arms and wave them around in the air
If I took the time to put you in my rhyme
If I took the time to write about you in my song
Let me tell you right there, you're a friend of mine
Let me just say that you're a dear friend of mine
And I used to getting close if you catch me a time
I used to be intimate if I get a chance to spend some time with you
We can do it like this with the twist of lime
We can add some excitement and fun to it like a twist of lime added to a drink
Always on my mind, not the freak of the week
You're always on my mind, you're not just a casual hook-up
Take the words I speak, to every soul I reach
The words I speak are for everyone I connect with
Hold tight with your touch on the microphone
Hold on to the microphone and let your touch bring the magic
As you're not just here, you are not alone!
Because you're not just physically present, I'm here with you
You are not alone - I'll be there for you
You are not alone, as I'll always be there to support you
You are not alone - anything I'll do
You are not alone, I'm ready to do anything for you
You are not alone - you're the one for me
You are not alone, you're the one I want
You are not alone - it's no tragedy
It's not a tragedy, as we are together in this
You are not alone - you're the one for me
You are not alone, you're the only one I desire
You are not alone - nothing comes for free
You are not alone, everything comes with a price
Wave your hands in the air
Lift your arms and wave them around in the air
Let me hear you scream!
Shout out and let me hear you
Come into my life, let me hold you, mold you
Come into my life, let me embrace you, shape you
Got so many things that I prob'ly never told you
I have so much to tell you, but didn't get around to it
Never scold you, try to unfold you
I'll never criticize you or nag you, I want to unravel who you are
Exlose you, someone's cast I even old you
To expose yourself to me, someone who trusts and believes in you
If I told you I'm giving you my heart
If I confess that I'm giving you my heart
You must have playing smart
You must be playing it safely
Then you're tearing me apart
But then your actions are hurting me inside
All night long to the early-early morning
All night long until the early hours of the morning
Pick up the phone - you're not alone!
Call me on the phone, I'm here with you
And feel me inside of you
Feel me spiritually and emotionally, in sync with you
Yeah, it's a national thing
Yes, it's a universal bond
I wanna solve in your dream I'll offer a bill
I want to be a part of your dreams, I'll pay for it
That Thomas is cool, but I'm on your case
Thomas may be cool, but I'm the one after you
With your incredible pace
With the speed and energy that you exude
So when I entered the place
So when I arrived at the scene
Meet you to see my face
When you meet me, you see my face
We're making up all the hits
We're creating all the popular songs
So baby, bottom o' your lip
So baby, bite your bottom lip
I will be sinking your ship
I will be making you fall in love with me
Like gotta sliding a bit
Like it's a bumpy ride but we're sliding through it
Extra logic get time on the night perform
Extra energy for the night so we can perform well
Baby, scratch to the bone - you're never alone!
Baby, let's get to the core of our relationship, and know that we are always together
