The story behind the song

Alphaville is a German synth-pop band that emerged in the 1980s, known for their distinctive sound. Formed by Marian Gold, Bernhard Lloyd, and Frank Mertens, they took their name from a 1965 science fiction film. This song, appearing on their debut album Forever Young, showcases the band's early style. It plays like a musical postcard, perhaps reflecting a longing or a message sent from afar.
