Cover Me

A massive 31-track double album of covers where Nena reimagines her musical idols through a polished 2000s lens of pop-rock and electronic textures.

Cover Me feels like a personal tour through Nena's record collection, delivered with the confidence of an artist who no longer has anything to prove. The first disc, sung entirely in German, is a love letter to her roots, featuring glossy, modern updates of tracks by Udo Lindenberg and Peter Heppner. The production is unmistakably 2007: clean, digital, and occasionally lush with orchestral flourishes, yet Nena's signature raspy delivery keeps the proceedings grounded and intimate.

Moments Worth Listening For
The transformation of Rammstein's 'Ein Lied' into a fragile, piano-led lullaby that strips away the industrial grit.
The driving, synth-heavy pulse of her take on David Bowie's 'Heroes' which bridges her new wave roots with modern pop.
The unexpected dance-pop energy injected into the cover of 'Remedy' by The Black Crowes, turning blues-rock into a club-ready anthem.
