The German ESC winner Nicole has already sung the winning song "A little peace" in seven languages. Now there is an eighth one: on their new album, the chorus is in Russian. It's a message to Putin, says the pop singer. But also to the Ukrainian refugees.
The former German ESC winner Nicole now sings her most famous song "A little peace" in Russian. "It's a message, I would say, to Mr. Putin to listen to the song because it expresses exactly what everyone wants," said the 57-year-old singer. "Finally to put an end to the war and to lay down the arms!"
The new version of the song, with which Nicole won the Eurovision Song Contest (ESC) for Germany in 1982, will appear on her new album "Ich bin zurück" on October 21. So far she has sung the winning song in seven languages, this is now the eighth, said Nicole. In the new version, she deliberately sang a refrain in Russian because the Ukrainians also understand this language. "It's also a small gift to all the refugees staying here."
"A little peace" is missing from every concert by the Saarlander. How many times has she sung the song in her life? "Apparently not often enough." The song will never lose its topicality.
Nicole returns to the stage this fall with a new album and a concert tour after battling breast cancer. "I'm fine again. I was always a fighter," she said.
