Peter Schilling Announces ‘Coming Home – 40 Years Of Major Tom’
Peter Schilling has announced a new career-spanning box set. Coming Home – 40 Years Of Major Tom will be available on 24 March 2023 in various configurations (2CD, 4CD Deluxe Edition, digital).
The set is digitally remastered and includes new recordings in different languages and instrumentations. In addition, the collection debuts four brand new songs. To celebrate, the first single is digitally available now, both in English (World Hold On) and German (Rubikon (…ein Weg zurück?).
Schilling says about World Hold On: “Everything we’ve been subjecting to our habitat, will very soon lead to collapse, if we don’t fundamentally change in terms of climate protection or do too little too late. For now, the world is still holding up.”
It has been exactly 40 years since Peter Schilling landed a No 1 hit on the German charts with Major Tom (völlig losgelöst) – the song remained on top of the charts for eight weeks. The single, together with his debut album Fehler im System (“Error in the system”) released in November 1982, marked the beginning of a successful musical career for the artist originating from Stuttgart, Germany – a global success story spanning from Europe to the US, where his English version of Major Tom (Coming Home) reached No 14 on the Billboard charts. The album and single also reached number 1 on the Canadian charts and were certified with several awards
The 2CD version of “Coming Home contains a total of 40 tracks – 20 English, 20 German. Among those are remastered versions of the greatest hits from 40 years such as Major Tom (Coming Home), The Different Story (World Of Lust And Crime) and Terra Titanic as well as four new songs in both languages.
For the first time, Schilling’s large fan base in South America will be able to listen to a Spanish language recording of Major Tom. On top of that there will be two stunning orchestral versions of his global hit. The songs DNA ((Into Your …) DNA), Ozean (Oceans Eyes) and Nach innen sehen (Starting With Myself) will be available in English for the first time and were newly recorded for Coming Home. The collection is accompanied by a 20-page booklet with new photos and liner notes. The 4CD Deluxe Edition includes both versions of the debut album Fehler Im System (“Error In The System”) as well as diverse set of rarities like remixes and single edits.
