Fremder - Carola

You're probably familiar with Carola's 1983 Eurovision entry, 'Främling' or the English version 'Love isn't love'. If you're from the Netherlands, you will know 'Je ogen hebben geen geheimen'. But the least known version, I think, is the German one: 'Fremder'. It was released in Germany, obviously, and perhaps in Austria and Switzerland too. 

I don't have any info on chart placings, but my guess would be that this wasn't a big hit. These days copies change hands for steep prices and that's usually a sign that only a small amount of discs was pressed. A nice addition to my collection. 

My collection: 7" single no. 8297

Tell me tomorrow - Princess

Having bought the yellow, pink and blue vinyl editions of 'Tell me tomorrow' by Princess recently, all I needed to find what the white vinyl version. That was a bit more difficult, because most dealers had no other interesting stuff on offer. 

But recently I decided to buy a few replacement copies of singles by OMD and Scritti Politti (the old ones had stickers on them) and so it was easy (and cheap) to add this one. Nothing is more satisfying than completing a quartet.

My collection: 7" single no. 8296
Found: Discogs.com, received 29 April 2026
Tracks:  'Tell me tomorrow' / 'Say I'm your number one (original demo)
