Hi Synergy Girl, I had the honor of meeting your Aunt Annelies in Port Elizabeth this January, but must have given her my wrong phone nr. I am so sorry about that, to have lost touch with her! Your uncle Louis was the most beautiful, talented Artist of his time in Germany! ALL of my friends and family in Austria still remember him and love him! He is unforgettable! RIP Louis xxxxx!

amazing dancer

He looks so beautiful here and was definetly one of the great ones who gave this group such a positive vibe and a lot of good energy. No one can imitate that lovely band.

Louis Potgieter...beautiful man...

Magnificent tribute to a great guy who could dance anyone under the table ❤

I'm from Brazil , I've always been a fan of this band , loved to hear them and see Louis Potgieter , I am sad to see the videos and know that this young man so beautiful , died so early , I see the videos always , Moskau , Hadschi Halef Omar Rom , too and other less known as Komm doch heim , Der Verräter that has beautiful lyrics and melodies

Dear Louis .....I still love you and remember you......Louis potgieter....why we lost you??????

Louis, a very talented man, without him, Dschinghis Khan would never be the same. And also, special thanks to Ralph Siegel their great manager.

Er war ein grandioser Tänzer, der mir immer als Dschinghis Khan verkleidet in Erinnerung bleiben wird. Der beste Tänzer, den die Gruppe je hatte. Die heutigen kommen da nicht mehr ran.

Wow! what a beautiful tribute! Even after his death, he and the original group members continue captivating our hearts. May all of them and their families are always blessed as Louis Potgieter in heaven, in the Divine Light of God.

What a great tribute for one beautiful man !

Siempre seras grande entre los grandes, el mejor bailarín que mis ojos han visto, único e inigualable, con un extraordinario talento, sin duda naciste para bailar era tu sueño y lo hiciste realidad, lastima que tuviste que partir tan pronto, pero tu recuerdo vivirá por siempre en nuestros corazones porque eres eterno LOUIS I LOVE.

Loved Louis,he will be missed,nice video.

you are very welcome, to me, he was a great inspiration of wonderfull things when i found out about him on the internet, later on i found his sister on facebook by coincidence, we started talking, and once i showerd her this video i once made for him, she and the rest of your family were very thankfull. i'm really sad he passed away even if i don't know him, he seemed like a wonderfull man. and believe me, a man as Louis will never be forgotten by his fans, beloved and friends. good luck! xxx

he was the star of Dschonghis Khan!! :(

ルイス、今日は20回忌なのですね。 貴男が亡くなられたのを一ヶ月前に知りとても残念です。 ご冥福をお祈りします。

I am way late to the party, I only recently discovered the band. I totally fell in love with Louis only to find out he passed away 24 years before I discovered him. Was there ever a real biography done of him, if so was it translated to English? I would love to read more about him!

Louis Hendrik Potgieter dançarino perfeito, elegância, destreza, esfuziante e raridade! Parabéns!

legend

I now know him. Thanks to World's Dumbest on TruTv. They showed a clip with some guy from Finland teaching disco. I looked it up on KZread and found out they were dancing to a song called "Moskau" by Dschinghis Khan. I've listened to a lot more of their songs on KZread now because of that.

なんか、むっちゃかわいそうやなぁ。動画じゃ、キレッキレに踊ってんのに、晩年は…（涙）

@TheDemonKingX i'm glad you like it, it's sad not much people knew how great he was...

Chacha Maru Hello, I am from Chile, since this year I am a fanatic of the group. I love Wolfgang Heichel. I wish we could make a group on facebook with Latin American fans as they have many but they were not well known here in the radios. Have some info from them such as why Henrriette and Wolfgang were separated or how Louis died?

Hey, I believe they were separated due to the band’s success? Was it?

Was he married? Did he have any children? I am a big fan of his and his work with Dschinghis Khan... Too bad the good artists die young =/

Dear Louis, you made my dream since 2017. I loved your music especially ‘Moskau’. If you never existed, my life would just be damp, dusty air. I’m glad, you’re not wrong about every consequence you made. Now, thank you, Louis.

Same here dude. Same here.^^

@TheDrazevnik i've found his note with his death date, ive got it on my laptop i will search for it

According to the Internet died from complications related to AIDS in South Africe.AIDS is often transmitted through sexual contact, blood. Dangerous is the use of the same syringe (rather junkies case ...). However, I have no source confirmed, and I do not know if true, so I hope I did not offend his memory, for any errors apologize calmly criticize :)
