ESC Covers received an article on Ralph Siegel from Andreas in Vienna. We have translated it to English and publish it now.
In an interview with the magazine “Bunte,” Siegel said that he had already submitted the song he wrote specifically for the band to the German Eurovision pre-selection. Siegel had previously announced that the “next generation” of the group from the 1970s would tour Germany in 2027.
Siegel said he had developed “something relatively ambitious.” “But I believe that’s also necessary when dealing with such a world-class group.” “I hope the jury sees it that way too.”
Siegel is one of the best-known and most successful German composers and producers of Schlager music. He has released around 3,000 songs; his most famous hit is “Ein bisschen Frieden” (A Little Peace). Sung by the then 17-year-old singer Nicole, the song won the Eurovision Song Contest in Great Britain in 1982.
