The first Nena album was released as part of the music genre called Neue Deutsche Welle, New German Wave movement in the German music. All five members of the band contributed to the songwriting. They were a unique group of musicians with a strong intuitive grasp of both classic Pop and Rock formulas. Nena insisted that she saw herself as a member of the band and not as their leader.

The album is still regarded as an unsurpassed classic of German Pop history, although most later Nena albums are not far behind in quality.
