December 19, 2007

This bag of goodies dropped from the German airwaves: German newcomers as diverse and professional as they come alongside pop star veterans sounding as fresh and innovative as newcomers.

In the star veteran category: Die Ärzte (who famously call themselves "the best band in the world"), Nena (who has redone an old Marlene Dietrich song) Robyn (who first emerged in the late 90s), and The Backstreet Boys (who should require no further explanation). Hot newcomers: Lisa Bund and Plain White T’s. Somewhere in between: Culcha Candela.
