2. 99 Red Balloons - Nena

99 Red Balloons is a 1983 song from the German rock band Nena, but the lady in the group is really Nena, so they are here in this section of the website.

The song was recorded in both German and then in English, but audiences seemed to prefer the German version. The song was kept out of the #1 spot in the US by Jump from Van Halen. The song was a #1 in many European countries.

21. It Must Be Love

Despite my thorough research, I have not been able to determine the intended album for its release. However, judging by Sue's vocal performance, it seems likely that it was intended for inclusion in Susanna's unreleased 1994 album with Columbia Records. The song, a collaborative effort by Susanna and Dave Bassett. I genuinely hope that Sue decides to officially release this gem one day, allowing a wider audience to appreciate its beauty.
