Anderson was looking for a singing duo for the composition Herzilein von Carola and Burkhard Lüdtke and asked them if they wanted to record this title. They agreed and in 1989 the duo's first single was released under the name Die Wildecker Herzbuben . The title Herzilein became a success in the genre of popular hits and brought the duo numerous awards and appearances on various radio and television programs as well as tours at home and abroad.
