Background

Following its release in April 1999, Zucker went straight to No. 2 in the German albums chart.[1] In an interview, singer AnNa R. of Rosenstolz described the album as being more personal than earlier Rosenstolz albums. She further stated that the album was more mature in terms of the lyrics and the themes dealt with, attributing this to the fact that the band members were getting older.[2]

"Perlentaucher" and "Fütter deine Angst", two songs from Zucker, reached No. 40 and No. 52, respectively, in the

German singles chart.[3][4] "Fütter deine Angst" was part of a double single with "Ja, ich will", and the latter together with "Zucker III" were included in a re-release of Zucker as bonus songs.[5] "Ja, ich will" was a collaboration with German comedian Hella von Sinnen, calling for the introduction of same-sex marriage.[6]
