early life

Matthias Reim was born on November 26 in Korbach, Hesse. However, he grew up with his three brothers in Homberg (Efze), where his father was the principal of the grammar school. Already in his childhood he sang with passion. He was given his first guitar for his confirmation. This was such a formative experience for young Matthias that he still remembers it today and knows for sure that his first guitar was a Hagstrøm II. He started playing and singing in bands while he was still at school.

Career

After graduating from high school, Matthias Reim began studying to become a teacher (English and German) at the Georg-August University in Göttingen. However, he preferred to deal with music and neglected his studies, which he consequently did not complete. Among other things, he played in various bands from Kassel and Bad Wildungen. He also wrote songs for other artists such as Bernhard Brink and Jürgen Drews. He had no commercial success with his own albums, which he recorded with “Fair Fax” and “Fallen Dice”.

Career highlights

After it had not looked like a brilliant career for Matthias Reim for a long time, the absolute breakthrough came in 1990 with the song “Verdammt, ich lieb’ Dich”. After an appearance in the “German Schlager Parade” the song became known to a broad public. The song was number one in the German charts for a total of 16 weeks. The German artist also reached the top of the hit parades in other countries with this song. The single sold around 2.5 million worldwide. The album “Reim”, which contains the song, also reached number 1 in the album charts in Germany. In the period that followed, Matthias Reim was unable to build on the success of “Damn, I love you” and went through private and economic crises that even led to insolvency. Great success only returned in 2013, when he released the album “Unendlich”, with which he landed at the top of the album charts in Germany again.

tips for success

For Matthias Reim it was always important to believe in yourself despite long dry spells and not to lose confidence that one day success will come. You just have to stay on the ball and work hard. You must not give up and under no circumstances should you lose faith in yourself. Matthias Reim has experienced ups and downs in his career. So one of his tips is that being able to handle success is incredibly important. If you’re going to be successful, it’s absolutely essential that you stay who you are. Otherwise you lose the ground under your feet. Reim repeatedly emphasizes that material success is of course important. But he knows that money alone does not bring happiness. This includes things like family cohesion and recognition. Even if crises are of course not pleasant situations, they still offer opportunities for further development. That’s why it’s important to be optimistic, even in difficult times.
