Hi all welcome back to another video Dereck Reacts back at it again! This time around we take a look at another SANDRA reaction with "Secret Land." Sandra really takes this thing and doesn't look back with ballad like qualities; but is fueled with synths I crave. It's and 80s no-doubt hit in my books. One of my favorite thus far. See my react now!

I told you Dereck you will be Sandra addicted for years to come!
There are so much hits in Sandra's career. You can continue for a long time just reacting to her songs.😅 Like you said she never fails .
It's nice to see young people like you enjoy Sandra's music. I was absolutely in love with her in my teenage years. Hope to see more . I'd like to see you reacting on "Johnny Wanna Live " that's one of my favorites of her. Beautiful instrumentation on that track as well. Thank you and keep up this great work ❤️
I discovered Sandra with this song in 1988, since ... I fell in love with her voice, her beauty. ❤❤❤❤❤⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Michael Cretu, her ex-husband, was the composer and producer of all her albums during that period. Later he created the iconic project called Enigma, Sandra's voice can also be heard there...
Sandra c'est toute mon adolescence, je l'adore
This woman oozes with talent her sound was so progressive for the time. She’s still out there performing with class. One of the Best of all time..👍🏼
Sandra's best Ballard is the song "forever", but "loreen" or "little girl" is real 80th

Loreen, my favorite Sandra ballad. I also like I Close My Eyes a lot.
Hiroschima is a electro ballad. From 1990, reached #4 in Germany, check it out. She actually belts out at the end in a way, you would not expect. You can do tons of reactions of great Sandra songs, sooo many hits.

In Europe (and especially in Germany and in France) she was considered in 1986-1988 as "the European Madonna" and success-wise she really was. Even though her image was far less sexual than Madonna's, she was more sexy and less sexual but her string of hits at the time was as much impressive as Madonna's. Her success peaked in 1988 in Europe, also due to the fact that Madonna's wasn't there musically for much of 1988 (doing theatre in the play "Speed The Plow" and not making new music that year). As a fan, at first, I was very surprised at the sudden change of sound (from the pure pop of tracks like "In The Heat Of The Night" or "Innocent Love" to her more modern hits like "Heaven Can Wait" or "Secret Land" because her sound evolved a lot more towards dance and techno (probably due to the fact that her husband and producer Michael Cretu was getting more and more into techno-dance beats through his Enigma project) and this techno-dance evolution is even more obvious in 1990 on her next album "Paintings In Yellow") but this album (Into A Secret Land) was very successful in France and Germany (almost like Madonna's "True Blue" album was). In 1986 I was under the impression that only I was listenning to Sandra but in 1988 even my neighbours, my classmates and my friends (who used to listen to Madonna and not Sandra) started listenning to Sandra's album "Into A Secret Land" too). That's when I knew that this album was special and more successful than her previous ones. 4 hit singles in a row from the same album (Heaven Can Wait, Secret Land, We'll Be Together and Around My Heart : the 2 last singles are also very good) : 4 successful singles from the same album : never a Sandra album had so much hits) so its success was no surprise and it's a hell of a very good album (1988's Into A Secret Land) because even album tracks like the very good "Crazy Juliet" or "Celebrate Your Life" also had the potential of becoming singles too.
I love so much this song! I played it on my Walkman thousand times when I was a kid! Thanks for react on this one. You should listen "Around my heart" And "We'll be together"!

Another great one by Sandra. Has always been one of my favorites. Ballads by Sandra would be "Loreen", "Johnny Wanna Live", "Hiroshima" and "Little Girl". Although the latter three might also be considered mid tempo.
Hi Dereck. Thanks for your react on Sandra "Secret Land". This song is taken from her third album "Into A Secret Land" as a second single in September 1988 and it's an adaptation of the German group Fabrique, "Trenchcoat Man" recorded in 1987. It will be ranked no.26 in France, in the TOP 10 in Germany and Austria and reached the top 20 in a number of other European countries. It exists a 1999 version taken from her album "My favourites" (even if I prefer the original version from 1988), but with minor success in Germany. In the music video, tinted green, Sandra is on a swing. M/V link : kzread.info/dash/bejne/gn6fyLehea-8kpc.html Indeed, the videoclip was shot in France at Mont Saint Michel in Normandy. In the lyrics, Sandra also quotes the name of a district of Paris, Saint Germain. Don't forget Sandra has French origins from her father, Robert Lauer, wine merchant and therefore has dual nationality. You mentioned wanting ballads from her. There are a few songs like "Little Girl" and "Loreen" from her debut album for example in 1986 or We'Ll be Together ('89 Remix) from this 3rd album (Into A Secret Land), Hiroshima (1990), taken from her fourth album (Paintings In Yellow), one of my favorite (almost the sound of Enigma) or in the same album, always in 1990: One More Night. Thanks for your amazing work our American dude. 👍🇫🇷
What a dreamy song I always loved it. "Don't be aggressive" and " Johnny wanna live" are great too.
I grew up listening to Sandra, this is definitely one of my favorites from her.
now its time for "hi hi hi " and "around my heart" ! thanks cute american guy !
In 85/86/87 I loved her songs, especially 'In the heat of the night' and 'Everlasting love' but I wasn't an absolute big fan. But in 88 with the album 'Into a secret land' I became a real fan. I couldn't stop listening this album when I was a child. This was a dream for me and I still love it a lot. One song in the album was for me the best of all, it was 'Celebrate your life'. Each song of 'Into a secret land' is absolutely wonderfull.

Thanks Dereck. Reminds me of my childhood when I was a teenager, I sang this song with my french accent and danced in front of the mirror.
Love this song !😍😍😍😍
Thank you Dereck! I love that you love my Goddess:-) And for me the best Sandra Ballad is „Loreen“ - magic Lyrics and super 80ies music from her Husband Michael Cretu
So great you enjoyed Secret Land..this song as you said was ahead of its time!!! Amd it was a big change in Sandras music. In Spain the 7" was realesed too and topped! Love the video its so beautiful at Mont Saint Miche I recently was there and was singing Secret Land all the time. By tge way if you ever have the chance listen listen to the extended reverse version on her 12" maxi single Secret Land
Sandra has always been a favorite of mine and she always delivered. I'm so glad you enjoyed 'Secret Land' because it's my favorite song of hers (and THAT is saying something), even though it didn't do as well in the charts. From the same album, you would love the uplifting 'We'll be together' 👍
So excited you reacted to this! This was such a great album. Around My Heart was another amazing single from this album, i hope you react to this as well. Cute video filmed in LA, as well. We'll Be Together was another top 10 hit from that album and obviously Heaven Can Wait, which you already reacted to. Sandra, the woman who always delivered in the 80s and 90s!
She has done, full of albums, each more beautiful than the next. She is also a singer on Enigma Sandra Cretu is a real star very humble and recognized as an exceptional artist.
Dereck, gotta be We'll Be Together next. That's a couple of truckloads of bananas.
ThX Dereck to share your videos of Sandra she s so great and so much songs of her career are a pure jewels and seduce us with her voice …the album close to seven ..or her last song angels in my head …STUNNING ! And redis moi too ..😉🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I Love this Song 🎶 ❤️ The Album „Into a Secret Land“ from her was my first Vinyl. I love also the Song Don't Cry (The Breakup Of The World) very cool 👍🏼
How i love these dereck times! They had been so special! ❤
Surely one of my favorite from Sandra….

I think Dereck would love that. It has great synths and it seems like a today's song , though it was in the early 90's. Great video also about violence to women
Ah man I remember how I was blown away when I first heard this song and saw the video
"Secret Land" is my number 1 favorite song. Sandra was also the lead singer for the disco group Arabesque. As for ballads, Forever, is one of my favorite.
Really glad you dig beyond those "100 hits" list everyone reacts to. Cool to see Sandra and Enigma reactions on your channel, thanks a lot!
👑🤩💕❤️Sandra❤️💕🤩👑👏🏻👍🏻🇧🇷
I was at University when this was released, id been an Arabesque fan and Sandra fan since MM first release. I remember playing this and the remixes in the student halls and having lots of people come to ask who it was. A major part of my teens/twenties...
She has indeed done some ballads and out of the ones she released I would check out 'One More NIght' or 'Forever'. Some of my favourite slower songs weren't released so you may want to listen to those privately as they will not have a video, but I would definitely recommend 'Just Like DIamonds', 'Mirrored in Your Eyes', 'When the Rain Doesn't Come', 'Seal it Forever' and her cover of the Talk Talk song 'Such a Shame'. One other track that I think is a standout, but would not necessarily say is a ballad is 'The Journey' - an epic song!

This, along with 'Heaven can wait' from her 3rd album Into a secret land, wich is possibly her greatest album, made me a fan forever. As for a ballad, I think there is the beautiful 'Change your mind' on her first album 'The long play'. No official video, unfortunatelly.
this is so wonderful do watch ... just pure and honest reactions to sandra songs ;) just love it Dereck ;)
Deutsche Qualität, once again. 1:28 This looks like Mt Saint-Michel in France. ( Alte Französische Qualität ;) ) ... but there seem to be some other locations in the music-video as well.
One heck of a song
Another hit single from Sandra in a dozen countries, my dad got the album: Into a Secret land in Germany in 1988 on CD when we were on holiday in Hamburg-great days!
Hi Derek, another Great Reaction . Thanks. There are so many Awesome Ballads , not just as Singles. Everyone of them makes you Happy to Hear such great Music: From the long Play Album. Sisters and Brothers, Change your Mind. From the Mirrors Album : Loreen ( My All-Time Favourite ) . From the Into a Secret Land Album : Just like Diamonds, Children of England. From the Paintings in Yellow Album : One more Night. From the Close to Seven Album : Seal it Forever, Your Way to India. From the Fading Shades Album : Will you Whisper, First Lullaby. From the Wheel of Time Album : I Close my Eyes, Free Love, The Wheel of Time. From the Art of Love Album : What D'Ya Think Of Me, The Art Of Love, Dear God If You Exist, Silence Beside Me, Put Your Arms Around Me, Love Is The Price. From the Back to Life Album : I Want You, Behind Those Words, Just Like Breathing. From the Stay in Touch Album : Sun in Disquise. It's tough to cut between mid-tempo ballads and 100% ballads. Many may not be satisfied with the selection because everyone feels differently. I also had a hard time with Free Love, but I still listed it, because I think this Depeche Mode Coversong is very well interpreted. Sandra actually got me lost on the Album "The Wheel of Time 2002. Something bothered me since then. I haven´t found out why until Today. BUT God praise the Lord 2012 "Stay in Touch" bombed me away from the first Note. Every single Song was SANDRA from back then. Blank & Jones walked on Michael Cretu's Paths and brought us back the beloved Sandra feeling . "Stay in Touch" is my Second Favorite Album after "The Long Play" .... we all know why ;-) I recommend "Stay in Touch" to you, because you won't be bored for a Second your Feet are danced bloody and you throw Bananas around you lol.
So damn nasty sound!! Loved it back then - love it now! Thanks Dereck so much for bringing Sandra and her music back into my life! Love from Germany 🧡
For some reason this song reminds me of the Pet Shop Boys...Love it. Thanks for sharing!
"We'll be together" "Around my heart" Everything you love: Sick percussions Crazy synths Key change So what are you waiting for? 😜😘
Yeah one of my favorite songs ever :D
Thanks for checking out euro music not just british and american.
I had listened to this album.. Hours and hours... Fabulous Sandra ❤️
Thank you for your videos! I love your channel so much! 🙏😄
Sandra joined a band called Arabesque, Friday Night was one of her hits, I recommend it 👌👌👌
Great track. Clip got me everytime because i live near this place.
Finally secret land!!! 😍😍😍 The second best for me, after heaven can wait
It is one of my favourite songs from her , happy that you like ot.Iff you want to hear a ballad from her, there are many good ones, but one of her fist old ballad is "Loreen" from her 1985-6 album Mirrors, I love it!!! or "Change your mind" in 1987. You can check that out if you want!! :)
Such a Beauty
It was the same in the UK...I felt as if I were the only one listening to her here.
lovely song !
Finally! This was so good at the time, very elegant and fun to listen to. Her voice is very distinctive and her husband was one of the best producers (Michael Cretu).
I'll never get tired listening Sandra's songs
Another great Sandra song. Check out Stop for a minute by her. Great song.
Sandra's Forever.... aaaaamaaaazing! She did a duet with Thomas Anders also.
Her best ballads are “ Hey little girl “ “ One more night “ “ Loreen “ But I advise you watch and listen to her song “Johnny wanna live “
She sings in Enigma songs. I am right ? I didn't know this song.

Hiroshima so ahead of its time too. Synths intro even reminds of forthcoming work from MJ in 1997, then a beautiful melody comes crafted with pioneer electro sounds, a surprising light guitar is melted with it, and as always amazing nasty beats drive the song specifically when you think it was produced back in 1990. Just before Michale Cretu came along with the worldwide blast Enigma.
the maxis singles were always good
I just listened to this song this morning and I wondered when will Dereck react to this... Loreen is her slowest ballad, another one of the 80s is Little Girl, the video was filmed in Venice...

I love your facial expressions and gestures when you hear and like a song. I think it's particularly good that you think outside the box, as here, for example, with Sandra. Listen to songs from my favorite band Camouflage. Maybe then I'll marry you. 😁😉😂. Stay the way you are. You do this best of all here. Greetings from Germany. And sorry for my bad school english 🙈
I am not sure if "Hiroshima" (1990) qualifies as Ballad, but hey, check it out.
Oh yes, I remember this one. Voice of Sandra + synths by M. Cretu = 👍🏻⭐
Saint Malo and the Mont Saint Michel ;-)
Please, next Sandra song; "Loreen" ! It creates goosebumps........
One of my all-time favourites from Sandra! The video was shot in France (Mont Saint-Michel and Saint-Malo), the chorus only has 2 tones and is actually hard to sing..and yes, it is a cover of a famous German song. What's next for Dereck? Maybe "We'll be together", the next song in her discography, shot at her home in Ibiza: kzread.info/dash/bejne/imFr0sWhnrjAdMo.html - thanks for reacting!
Dereck my friend, you are showing Sandra and Enigma hits and forgetting about the man behind all of those brilliant hits ! Micheal Cretu. Please give the guy some attention and react to his super hit Samurai. Thanks .
The beach is at ST MALO in ILLE ET VILAINE and the MONT SAINT MICHEL IS in NORMANDY
🤩🤩🤩🤩
Merci ❤ dommage que cette vidéo ne soit pas traduite en français 😢 Néanmoins Bravo pour vos analyses 😊
She released in 1987 a balad called Laureen
Next - Sandra "We'll be together".
It's sure one of her best song! the cover of the single is beautiful too ! a ballad? "Loreen"! / Also Michael Cretu did work with Sylvie Vartan on "C'est fatal" (89) you could check this...
Dereck@ you're not done with her. Next. 👇 - Hi Hi Hi - Around my heart. - One more night. (Ballad) - Loreen (Ballad) 👍😉
The video was shoot in "Mont Saint Michel".
If you wanna try something completely different from the same era… Stop! by Sam Brown…. amazing voice, full of soul So Bad, by Nina Hagen… German punk pop diva!
by the way Dereck... check Sandra Ballad Forever... its pure magic...
You gotta love the original Trenchcoat men from fabrique
She was more popular in South Africa than Madonna in the 80's, airplay and album sales
Not really filmed in Normandy the video. We can see the Mont-Saint-Michel, but it is visible from the Breton part (Brittany) ;) And above all, the clip shows the Breton town of Saint-Malo (ramparts, sea water pool, Fort National, breakwater, etc.) :) Dereck from a fan from Brittany ;)
Hello Dereck :) You can listen "hi hi hi "
Next ..You must see "hi hi hi" from Sandra.. you can't miss that..and "hey little girl " is another great ballad by her..
Dynamic. Lots of truths in the lyrics. Direction Zion
Michael Cretu... Because He CAN. Enigma The "Cross of Changes" (1994) has a sound of future also! Please react it.
