Claudia is such an amazing and beautiful talent. I can not imagine my life with out Propaganda . A Secret Wish is a masterpiece! Pure brilliance! I’m so happy I found this awesome interview. Thank you!
Love Claudia. Great to hear her elaborate on her career. With that beautiful voice we really need an album of German torch songs. But anything and everything is welcome. :D
Lovely warm lady,amazing voice and has a great aura.Very underrated group was propaganda one of the best groups ever without doubt and they deserve to be mentioned in the best company like Omd/human league/soft cell/depache mode etc etc and all the other great synth bands around that time.Timeless music propaganda made as sounds as good today in 2023 as they did in 1983.
What a lovely interview. I'm sure many fans haven't seen this yet, but Claudia really opens up about many things - I especially liked the fact that she seems to want the unreleased Propaganda album to be brought out in some form. And so say all of us. She didn't mention any new release from OneTwo to be forthcoming, and the website seems ominously quiet on any activity. I hope all is well on that front, and that like Propaganda and Act, we wont be left with just one 'real' album to enjoy. On the plus side, both of the latest solo efforts have been brilliant, and am looking forward to seeing some live shows in London. I hope some are in the pipeline!!
What an amazing interview! Love it! As a musician to, love the way how this lady express her feelings about music and her work on it. Since a long time ago I wanted to do a project with her, even during the time I was living in Germany, but never got a way to contact her. Now , back to Portugal, still didn't loose the hope for it. Love this interview! Hugs Claudia !
Blimey, she's aged well. A middle aged woman who looks better than she did when she was young. Having not seen her for many years I had no idea she was this lovely. Real warmth. Interviewer is a stiff though.
Great interview. Claudia is such a sympatic person. It seems she was a little bit nervous... But that was not bad. Good questions. Very well done!!! Thank you so much for this little treasure.
Very impressive woman. A secret wish was one of the first records I brought. The term I would use for it now is intellectual pop. There was even lots of philosophy on the record sleave. It was wonderful and still is. It was a travesty that Duel only got to 21 (though it stayed at that position for three weeks) in the UK. However now - quite rightly - it is remembered more than many songs that got a lot higher.
I he may appear to have the personality of a robot but he does ask intelligent questions and that is what really matters rather than dumb questions from a lively, dressed up interviewer. Claudia ?! She’s lovely. Love that voice it is so soothing and she is intelligent and humble and sensitive and talented. All the ingredients for an ideal pop singer.
Claudia inspires me in this video. I want to get out there again and sample the sounds of the world on my old marantz pcm recorder, and pump them through my Akai Sampler.
Propaganda are legendary. The talent, music and image that has been presented by the band is incredible and really are a basis of my young adulthood in the mid 80s' . This is my first experience of an interview of one of the main members. Brücken is SO gracious and thoughtful but also warm and welcoming. I'm really happy I stopped to watch this.
Would be actually nice to see Claudia and the other 3 Members of Propaganda preforming together again or maybe make a new Album ... leave behind what happened in the past and just make music together occasionally just for fun ... Propaganda is still my favorite German band ...
Ja, der einzigartige Propaganda- Vocal Sound lässt sich auch in ihrer Sprechstimme nicht leugnen. Auch wenn mein Englisch nicht das allerbeste ist, hab ich das Interview mit Interesse verfolgt.
Thanks for this interview. Great to discover all this footage of Propaganda and learn more about Claudia. What a Woman!!! BBBBBBBB I'm having a proper Goosey on youtube. She is so cute and she is giving me the inspirations. P.s. (Why is the sound so quiet on this video? Had to put it on the TV and turn up a lot.)
The band he is mentioning comes from Berlin. Its name is 'Einstürzende Neubauten' (english translation: Collapsing new buildings, --- industrial music genre) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einst%C3%BCrzende_Neubauten
Her voice is really nice to listen to.
Such an underrated artist. She's amazing.
How cute is her speaking voice, really! Could listen to it for hours and hours...
Snobbery and Decay by Act is one of my all time favourite songs Claudia Brücken and Thomas Leer are 2 of the most underrated artists of all time
Claudia still looks beautiful, LOVE her voice speaking and singing...SO in love with the German language. I could listen to her all day.
My god, She has aged so well (and obviously a lovely woman with an excellent voice)
Claudia was my biggest crush growing up! So great to see this interview!!! Still magical as ever...:-D
She still looks gorgeous. Claudia is a very Beautiful & a very sweet German Lady.
Claudia is such an amazing and beautiful talent. I can not imagine my life with out Propaganda . A Secret Wish is a masterpiece! Pure brilliance! I’m so happy I found this awesome interview. Thank you!
Very candid and humble.
She's absolutely lovely!
Her speaking voice is beautiful, quite hypnotic. Perfect English with a slight German accent.
Claudia does still look great! And gives an intelligent, heartfelt, human interview. The person interviewing her has rather less charm than a robot.
Awesomely understated British way to put it: 'rather less charm than a robot.' Great. Put a smile on my face.
While Matt's voice lacked expression somewhat, I don't feel that it detracted from the interview in any way and he possessed more than adequate charm.
Men was a KI generatet men…
I love Claudia, such a beautiful voice, then and now.
She`s so lovely after all these years - It`s the first time i`m hearing her speak on top of that - What a wonderful woman.
Claudia is legend !
Love Claudia. Great to hear her elaborate on her career. With that beautiful voice we really need an album of German torch songs. But anything and everything is welcome. :D
Thanks for posting this interview. Claudia still looks amazing.
Great interview! A Secret Wish is still one of the most influential albums I've encountered. Timeless! Love these guys!
Great interview. Wonderful talent & a lovely lady.

a lovely lady & a totally unique singer.
I'm 15 and i'm in love with her! she's so perfect!
Still looking good Claudia.
Well, umm....she looks like a "mom"(which is cool, because she is), and looks fab in that context.
She has a sweetening voice! 💯
i just like the name Claudia Brucken.
great german woman
great singer and artist
5*******
I saw her perform live a few years ago at the Kings Cross Scala and she was brilliant and yes, one lovely looking woman.
To misquote the Passions. I'm in love with a German Songstar.
i loved her stuff over the years.... and german women sound sooooo.......
Wow isn't she lovely? still crushing on Claudia
Without *A Secret Wish* I wouldn't be the person I am today. It made my mind explode!
Thanks for putting me onto Where Else! God I love that album - it has made my year!
What a lovely interview.

Just thinking it's a way ahead to release or popularize those songs in the future. Nearly 10 years or more. It's all futuristic.
So happy to have been to see her when she toured with. Heaven 17in November 2018 IN LIVERPOOL WAS a night to remember 🎶🎶😍😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
What an amazing interview! Love it! As a musician to, love the way how this lady express her feelings about music and her work on it.

Don't get me wrong looks good for her age, but i disagree saying she looks better now than when she was younger.
And now this was 6 + half years ago.
so elegant and eloquent.
after that rave, this interview is glorious, thanx Cherry.
Delightful lady. Propaganda was almost a religion to me in the early eighties.
I can understand how and why you felt that way about Propaganda for the period, say, 1981-86.
Good interview, very interesting.
She still has a strong german accent ... cute :-)
One of the greatest songs ever. Duel.
lovely interview, and a rare one at that.
Claudia, i'm your fan!!! Hugs from São Paulo, Brasil!!!
A beautiful soul
One of the nicest women I’ve ever had the pleasure to meet, our time together wasn’t long, but I learnt a lot from her 😊
Hallo Claudia...Düsseldorf....(Probaganda)..einfach nur mega..heute bin ich 54 Jahre...(Kraftwerk) .Ich bin damit aufgewachsen
Great interview. Claudia is such a sympatic person. It seems she was a little bit nervous... But that was not bad. Good questions. Very well done!!! Thank you so much for this little treasure.
Super interessant, danke!
Fabulous Claudia Brücken!
Very impressive woman. A secret wish was one of the first records I brought. The term I would use for it now is intellectual pop. There was even lots of philosophy on the record sleave. It was wonderful and still is. It was a travesty that Duel only got to 21 (though it stayed at that position for three weeks) in the UK. However now - quite rightly - it is remembered more than many songs that got a lot higher.
She is gorgeous
in the eights she was fit but now in 2017 she is still fit wow and the music is good too .
Wow, she's a natural!
Class!
As a fan of Propaganda, the question i always had was what happened？ This clarifies so much, and so great to hear Claudias story.
What a lovely woman 😎
I was hoping to find something like this. I hope there are interviews from back in the day, too.
you gotta love claudia
great band great music she is gorgeous i would marry her tomorrow .
I he may appear to have the personality of a robot but he does ask intelligent questions and that is what really matters rather than dumb questions from a lively, dressed up interviewer.
Claudia ?! She’s lovely. Love that voice it is so soothing and she is intelligent and humble and sensitive and talented. All the ingredients for an ideal pop singer.
A Secret Wish is still one of my favorite records of all time. it hits as hard, for me today, as when it came out.
how brilliant:):)
I've only discovered them this year 2017 !! I absolutely love them, but i'm somehow LATE, no ?
I've just rediscovered them thanks to the internet. They were really good.
YOU ARE NEVER LATE
What a delightful lady.
Claudia inspires me in this video. I want to get out there again and sample the sounds of the world on my old marantz pcm recorder, and pump them through my Akai Sampler.
👏👏👏👏👏the history and talent of Claudia, Suzana and Propaganda is awesome, I♥️ them!
Propaganda are legendary. The talent, music and image that has been presented by the band is incredible and really are a basis of my young adulthood in the mid 80s' . This is my first experience of an interview of one of the main members. Brücken is SO gracious and thoughtful but also warm and welcoming. I'm really happy I stopped to watch this.
Love her!
Que muchacha mas hermosa y con talento
greate people do great things
Matt's a good bloke. Knows music. Claudia seems a lovely person.
Would be actually nice to see Claudia and the other 3 Members of Propaganda preforming together again or maybe make a new Album ... leave behind what happened in the past and just make music together occasionally just for fun ... Propaganda is still my favorite German band ...

Claudia es una leyenda
"Creativity is such a playground and you have to get in a childlike state" - very true. Being childish and being childlike are polar opposites.
Estupenda claudia...
She oozes class, really nice individual
So charming ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Sie ist großartig! Ich wusste nicht, dass sie so eine schöne Sprechstimme hat.
Ja, der einzigartige Propaganda- Vocal Sound lässt sich auch in ihrer Sprechstimme nicht leugnen. Auch wenn mein Englisch nicht das allerbeste ist, hab ich das Interview mit Interesse verfolgt.
Quelle classe !
Really good info but loads of info on Claudia around but virtually nothing on Susanne Fraytag which is disappointing.
Unless she is a counsellor in England now which I doubt as that is the only Susanne Freytag I can see, there is a resemblance ironically thought.
Thanks for this interview. Great to discover all this footage of Propaganda and learn more about Claudia. What a Woman!!! BBBBBBBB I'm having a proper Goosey on youtube.

je suis amoureux depuis la seconde où j'ai entendu "DUEL"...et encore maintenant
Claudia❤❤
respect
I'd love her to spike her hair up again! :)
she seems nervous but that's her appeal, she's lovely and the music is fab...
whats the band he mentions at the 2 minute mark after kraftwerk?
The band he is mentioning comes from Berlin. Its name is 'Einstürzende Neubauten' (english translation: Collapsing new buildings, ---
industrial music genre) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einst%C3%BCrzende_Neubauten
David Bedford orchestrated Dr Mabuse? I always thought it was Anne Dudley.
One thing i dont understand after all those years, why does this talented lady do covers?
Throbbing Gristle , Der Plan , D.A.F., she know the good things .
Her speaking voice is as good as her singing voice.
show
Secret.wish.could.be.in.top.20.albums.becuse..of.her.lead.singer.no.one.ever.sang.this.way.perty.sentual.
strange that David Sylvian is not mentioned
she mentioned japan though
I recognized her by her nose.
What a beautiful white woman.
I wonder if Claudia still hates mornings 😂
Claudia is lovely but Matt has THE most tedious and boring interview style.
he was a bit of a drip...
