Alphaville Opposes AfD's Use of 'Forever Young'

The German pop band has vowed to prevent the far-right party from using their music, citing political incompatibility.

Alphaville, known for hits like 'Forever Young' and 'Big in Japan,' has publicly condemned the use of their music by AfD supporters.
The band described the Alternative for Germany (AfD) as a 'fascist organization' and stated their music does not align with the party's ideology.
A statement posted on Alphaville's Instagram confirmed their intention to take action against the 'misuse' of their song 'Forever Young.'
The controversy follows a broader trend of artists globally, including Herbert Grönemeyer and ABBA, opposing the use of their music in political campaigns.
The AfD has been classified as a suspected far-right extremist group, with parts of the party labeled as 'confirmed extremist' by German authorities.
