German Schlager star Helene Fischer has released her second single, “An meiner Seite,” ahead of her upcoming studio album, according to reports from dpa and folx.tv. The 42-year-old singer’s new track follows her previous single “Heute Nacht,” which served as the Magenta TV soundtrack for the men’s FIFA World Cup and secured her first solo number-one spot on the official German charts, according to GfK Entertainment data cited by dpa.
Musical Style and Production Team Behind “An meiner Seite”
“An meiner Seite” blends synthesizer-heavy production with a dance-pop schlager mix, featuring lyrics such as “Wir sind die perfekte Synergie, wenn die ganze Welt in Trümmern liegt” (“We are the perfect synergy when the whole world lies in ruins”), according to dpa. Folx.tv reports that the track was produced by Jules Kalmbacher, Alex Christensen, and Lukas Hilbert, with writing credits including Julio Bonito, Claudio Macalvo, and Shaun Baker—a team drawing primarily from the dance and pop genres.
Live Debut and Visuals From the Stadion-Tour
Fischer’s fans already know the song from her recent stadium tour, which drew roughly 750,000 attendees across 15 concerts in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and the Netherlands, according to dpa. During the tour, Fischer performed the track alongside her partner, Thomas Seitel, in an acrobatics routine where the pair wore silver glitter outfits and hovered high above the audience. Scenes from these performances garnered over 20 million views on social media, prompting the record label to craft the official music video using footage from the Vienna concert, as noted by dpa.
Release Timeline and Expected Promotional Appearances
While the label has not specified an exact streaming release date, folx.tv notes that the single is expected in August as part of the rollout for Fischer’s forthcoming album. Dpa reports that the record label planned to officially showcase the single via its new music video and a performance at the “Goldene Henne” awards ceremony in Leipzig. Folx.tv adds that while fans have speculated about a surprise appearance at the September 4 event hosted by Esther Sedlaczek and Florian Silbereisen, Fischer’s name did not appear on the published guest list.
