In 1979 Thomas Anders won a music competition of the radio station "Radio Luxembourg", (a highly noted and respected competition in those days) and was offered a recording contract with CBS. In 1980, at the age of 17, he released his first single "Judy". Several singles followed which were produced by Daniel David. In 1981 Thomas had his debut on TV in the Michael Schanze Show "Hätten sie heut' Zeit für uns", where he performed the song "Du weinst um ihn". In 1983 producer Dieter Bohlen recorded a German cover version of the song "Pick up phone" (F.R. David). At that time Thomas was an artist at HANSA, (today BMG Berlin), Dieter asked him to come to the recording studio in Hamburg to record the song together. Dieter Bohlen was enthusiastic about his voice. As a result he produced several German songs with Thomas, for example "Wovon träumst Du denn?", which peaked at 16 on the German Pop-Charts, "Endstation Sehnsucht" and "Heißkalter Engel" (German version of "Send Me An Angel" by Real Life).
In autumn 1984, Dieter Bohlen wrote the song "You're my heart, you're my soul", which was the debut song for Dieter and Thomas. Modern Talking was born. "You're my heart, you're my soul" went to the top of the charts and remained there for 6 weeks. The songs of the Pop-Duo were a huge success worldwide, nearly every song became a hit and things happened really fast. Soon, Modern Talking was the most successful German Pop-Duo and they got several gold and platinum records.
In autumn 1987 they broke up. Anders recorded six albums when he first pursued a solo career. Highly successful abroad between 1989 and 1995, he worked with well-known producers like Gus Dudgeon, Peter Wolf, Paul Muggleton & Mike Paxman and along with famous artists like Glen Meiderios, Judie Tzuke, Marta Sanchez, the Pointer Sisters and Three Degrees (with whom he sang a duet). Also he wrote the title song for an Argentinean series. These days he regularly thrills up to 85,000 fans per concert internationally in places like Cape Town, Hong Kong, Singapore, Santiago de Chile, Moscow etc.
In 1993 Thomas experienced something new, when he got a part in the Swedish Movie "Stockholm Marathon". He also wrote the title song for that movie. Lately he has been working on his new solo album for some time and plans to release it in the spring of 2004.
