Marianne Rosenberg - Ich Bin Wie Du - TopPop 10th Anniversary - (1976/1980) TopPop

Marianne Rosenberg (born 10 March 1955) is a German Schlager music singer and songwriter. She is considered one of the most successful performers of German Schlager of the last four decades. She was one of the first German singers to introduce disco in the German music market with “Ich bin wie du“ in 1976. “Er gehört zu mir“ was a finalist in the competition to select a Eurovision Song Contest entry for Germany in 1975 but only placed tenth, even though the song became one of Rosenberg’s biggest hits. Rosenberg’s attempts to sing in Eurovision took a surprising turn in 1976 when she was shortlisted to represent Luxembourg with the song “Tout peut arriver au cinéma“. Although it did not win, it went on to be a German hit under the title “Lieder der Nacht“. In 1978, Rosenberg competed in the German heats again, and this time placed seventh with “Nein, weinen werd’ ich nicht“ (“No, I Won’t Cry“). Her 1980 entry “Ich werd’ da sein, wenn es Sturm gibt“ (“I’ll Be There If There Is a Storm“) was not as successful, finishing twelfth (and last). Rosenberg’s final challenge for Eurovision was in 1982 with the song “Blue Jeans Kinder“, a ballad which took eighth place. Rosenberg also achieved chart success in other European countries, including Austria and the Netherlands. She is also considered a gay icon in several countries, such as the Netherlands and her native Germany.
