Sarah Connor is one of Germany's most successful pop artists. Born Sarah Marianne Corina Lewe in 1980 near Delmenhorst, she got her start singing in gospel choirs before signing with X-Cell Records in 2000.
Her debut album, Green Eyed Soul, arrived in 2001 and launched a career that has since produced ten studio albums and sold more than eight million records, making her the first solo act to score four consecutive number one hits on the German singles chart. Long known for her soulful English language pop, she later reinvented herself as a leading voice in German language music with albums like Muttersprache.
"Das schönste Mädchen der Welt" is a self love anthem about strength, solidarity, and looking beyond other people's judgment, one of the standout tracks from a 2026 special reissue that also kicked off a major arena tour across Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.
