The story behind
Alphaville recorded "Forever Young" in a Berlin studio between January and August 1984. The song "Lies" appeared on the band's debut album, released on September 27, 1984. It was produced by Colin Pearson, Wolfgang Loos, and Andreas Budde. The album was recorded using equipment such as the Roland TR-808 and the Linn LM-1, and was mixed on Tascam 8-track tapes. The song "Lies" is 3 minutes and 33 seconds long. Some songs on the album were recorded in German, but none of those versions appeared on the original album. The band used machines such as the Roland SDE 200 and the Friendchip SRC to synchronize the tracks. ↓ Skip to chordsG D Em
