Jürgen Marcus Biography

Jürgen Marcus, born Jürgen Beumer, 6 June 1948 in Herne, North Rhine-Westphalia is a German schlager singer who was most successful during the 1970s, when he had 14 chart hits in Germany. He is also known for his participation on behalf of Luxembourg in the 1976 Eurovision Song Contest.

Jürgen Marcus Partner

He was in a relationship with his manager Nikolaus Fischer.

Jürgen Marcus Death

At just the age of 69, in may 2018, just few days before his 70th birthday , Jürgen Marcus succumbed to his COPD condition. He died at the apartment he shared with his partner and manager.

Jürgen Marcus Career

In 1970, Marcus was signed to a recording contract and his single releases became popular almost immediately. His first charting single came in the same year, and he subsequently enjoyed three consecutive top 10 hits in 1972-73, including the highest-charting single of his career, “Eine neue Liebe ist wie ein neues Leben”, which peaked at #2. He was a regular on German TV music shows, and in 1972 appeared in a film, Heut hau’n wir auf die Pauke.

Marcus took part in the German Eurovision selection in 1975, with the song “Ein Lied zieht hinaus in die Welt”. Although the song only managed to rank ninth, it went on to become a top 3 hit and the last top 20 entry of his career. Luxembourgian broadcaster RTL almost invariably chose their Eurovision entry by internal selection. Unusually in 1976, however, they organised a five-song final in which Marcus participated with “Chansons pour ceux qui s’aiment” (“Songs For Those Who Love Each Other”). He won the selection, so went forward to the 21st Eurovision Song Contest which was held on 3 April in The Hague, where “Chansons pour ceux qui s’aiment” fared less well than expected, placing 14th of the 18 entries.

Marcus’ recording success had declined by the later 1970s and he parted ways with his record company in 1979. Following a last minor hit in 1981, plans and collaborations came to nothing and Marcus largely dropped from sight. His first album for over 20 years (Ich glaub an die Welt) was released in 2004, followed by a Christmas collection in 2006. Another album of new material (Für Immer), his last to date, came out in 2008. His last album Zeitreif appeared in 2011. In April 2017, Marcus declared the end of his career, citing a lung disease as the reason.
