“Immer wieder sonntags” is still her biggest hit today. At the time, Cindy was 25 years old. Now, at 76, the singer appeared on television again.
In the 1970s, Cindy Berger and her husband Bert enjoyed success as a pop duo. The song “Immer wieder sonntags” from 1973 is still considered their biggest hit. The singer died in 2012, and his former partner continued solo. Cindy can be seen at various events from time to time, but she is rarely on stage these days.
The now 76-year-old has not been seen on television for a while. Now she celebrated her TV comeback in the ZDF “Fernsehgarten”. On Sunday, the singer appeared with host Andrea Kiewel in keeping with the show’s motto “The Great Schlager Festival”. In a long black flounced skirt with a wide waist belt and an off-the-shoulder blouse with a pink floral pattern, she performed the Cindy and Bert song from 1975: “When the roses bloom in Malaga”.
For more than 20 years, Cindy & Bert were the dream duo of the German pop world and regular guests on television shows. The two met when Cindy was still a teenager. Success came early: in 1969, the couple released their first single “Saturday Morning”. Both were still attending business school in Völklingen at the time.
In 1971, Cindy & Bert gave up their commercial careers for music. The couple even competed in the Grand Prix in 1974 with the song “Sommermelodie” – but had no chance against Abba, who won with “Waterloo”. At the end of the 1980s, after more than 20 years of marriage, Cindy & Bert separated, both privately and professionally.
Cindy Berger continued her musical career without Bert. She has had a new duet partner for some time now. The 76-year-old released the album “Music Opens Hearts” with Norbi in May. Aside from music, Cindy has also appeared in shows such as “Let’s Dance” and “Promi Shopping Queen”.
