When Nina Hagen does something, she does it with full conviction. And when she released Personal Jesus in 2010, she surprised us with an album that dives uncompromisingly into the world of gospel. Since her return to the Christian faith, she has expressed her religious devotion in Personal Jesus by combining gospel with a mixture of blues, rock, soul and funk - powerful, passionate and without irony.
Her version of Personal Jesus (originally by Depeche Mode) in particular attracted attention: where the original remains cool and minimalist, Hagen turned it into a moving gospel anthem full of spiritual ecstasy.
Now, 15 years later, Personal Jesus is being released on vinyl for the first time - as an anniversary edition on colored vinyl. As a special highlight, this edition contains the previously unreleased bonus track “I Was Born to Preach the Gospel”, which is the first track on the b side of the vinyl and fits seamlessly into the album as if it had always been part of it.
