Will you play my record? One-track mind!

Waaaaaaaaaaaay back, in 1983/84 - German new wave group Nena was Germany's hottest export, and had reached #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 with their single "99 Luftballons".

Because they weren't comfortable recording in English, they were a one-hit wonder here, despite having numerous hits across Europe.   In 2003, Nena's lead signer (also Nena) had a career revival with the 30th anniversary release of her material, redone in different styles.

Aside from occasional shows back in the 80s, Nena never toured America.

Imagine my surprise when I signed onto Facebook to have an alert about an upcoming event.....Nena doing US shows.  I got a ticket for her stop in NYC in October.

 ;D

No, no, Nena. 

Not the Leadballoon lady?  Coming to the US?

Oy, Germany should keep her.

So kind of you to think of me.
Neither Chuck nor Nena would want me there, however.
I would not be responsible for my actions.

Maybe Germany doesn't want her.

Well, those actions could be something else!

I'm sure Chuck and Nena would appreciate a once-in-a-lifetime experience!

Mr. Snooty can stay home and listen to his Broadway show tunes.
