Sarah Connor on “Muttersprache” tour
The German artist Sarah Connor is just as tough striding through life as her namesake from Terminator, we have long been aware of this. But the two are alleged not related, although we’re not so sure we believe it. Both of them have a fire underneath them. Moreover, Sarah Connor seems to feel slightly drawn to robots. After all, she did the German voice acting for the metal lady Cappy from the film Robots. Sarah Connor’s new album “Muttersprache” [“Mother Tongue”] proves that she is also very versatile and always reflects the zeitgeist without seeming false. It’s all a little calmer and a little more serious – and above all, it’s all in German. The times when she sung with Wycleff Jean
about nocturnal escapades as a teen are long gone. On the new album, we hear the mature, grown-up family woman Connor who has something to say. A few years ago, we really put Sarah Connor in the right light. Now, on her current tour, we can also support her tone. This gives us the opportunity to listen a little more closely to when “Muttersprache” can tell us all about ourselves.
