Haddaway Biography

Ten years, four albums and over twenty million sold copies – Haddaway is a truly international sensation.

The track appertained up to 52 weeks at worldwide Top 10 Charts and even today it is part of the Top 100 Airplay charts of US. After that bang, further hits like ‘Life’, ‘Rock My Heart’, ‘Fly Away’ and ‘I Miss You’ followed and entered the Top 20 Charts.

With Haddaway’s second album The Drive, released in 1995, he did not miss the opportunity to continue his success without a break.

In 1999 all his famous hits had been rearranged and remixed for his All the Best – His Greatest Hits album. In 2001 Haddaway showed that he has developed and enhanced his musical career with his fourth album Love Makes.
