Thomas Anders's 1989 solo outing 'Different' saw the former Modern Talking vocalist largely abandon the synth-pop of his former group for a more mature, albeit still danceable, pop sound. The album is notable for its production by Peter Vale and features collaborations with Phil Wilde and the Belgian production duo P.I.R. that aimed for a contemporary, international sound.
- The album was released in 1989, the same year Anders's former band Modern Talking briefly reunited.
- 'Different' charted at number 34 in Germany and number 44 in Austria.
- The album's lead single, "Love Is Strong," reached number 37 on the German singles chart.
