The story behind
Alphaville wrote "To Germany With Love" in 1984, when they were just starting to make a name for themselves. The song is part of their debut album, *Forever Young*, which was released in September of that year. It was recorded in London with producers who were working there at the time. The lyrics speak of a journey, of a connection to Germany, as if it were a tribute or a way of remembering something. The music has that characteristic sound of the era, with synthesizers and rhythms that flow smoothly. The song lasts just over four minutes, but in that time it tells a story that feels authentic. People are still listening to it, according to statistics from Last.fm, where it has over 49,000 listeners. ↓ Skip to chordsDm
