"Shooting Star" is a song by Modern Talking, produced in 2006 by Dieter Bohlen, almost three years after the band's split. The song was published in Dieter: Der Film soundtrack. The song consists of the union of verses of Modern Talking's old songs, as Don't Take Away My Heart, and the typical falsetto choruses.
In the song's beginning, the voice of Louis Armstrong can be heard.
History
Modern Talking broke up 3 years before the song's publishing, which Dieter Bohlen announced in a massive concert in Rostock, Germany. The relationship between Thomas Anders and Dieter Bohlen was bad; Bohlen's second autobiographic book claimed that Anders pursued him to pay a million euros because of damage to his reputation. Anders won the trial.[1]
In 2006, Bohlen produced the movie Dieter - Der Film, based on his first autobiographical book, Nothing but the truth. The film's soundtrack contained a previously unreleased song, Shooting Star. The song consisted of the union of old Modern Talking songs, like Don't Take Away My Heart (for example I'll be right here -next- to you or I would stay - I would go), Cosmic Girl, Fly to the Moon, Time is on My Side, Send Me a Letter from Heaven, I'm Not Guilty, and After Your Love is Gone.
The song contained only the typical falsetto choruses, because Thomas Anders was not available for this production.
