About the book<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bundled with the Blu-ray Mensch<\/em>, the book offers a deep insight into the genesis of the album, into the formation of creative processes, into the London of the noughties, a city where it swings.A book, a way of life. With beautiful illustrations.How is music created, how an album? And how was it with Herbert Gr\u00f6nemeyer’s album “Mensch”? Arezu Weitholz tells of this – in many voices and with great warmth.<\/p>\n

Where do melodies come from? What does it all start with? “Everything begins with the sound of a friend’s voice,” says Herbert Gr\u00f6nemeyer.

Memories and anecdotes, coincidences and strange mistakes, happy circumstances and thoughtful moments from numerous interviews with Herbert Gr\u00f6nemeyer, with companions, musicians and friends combine to form an entrancing round dance. Which song lyrics were discarded? What was it like in the studio and later at the concerts? And what’s the deal with the giant polar bear?<\/p>\n
