Album: The Wheel of Time by Sandra (2002)
Genre: Synthpop | Style: Rock/Pop
Format: Album

Description: The Wheel of Time is the seventh studio album by German singer Sandra, released in 2002.

Produced by Michael Cretu and Jens Gad, the album was well received by Sandra's fans, receiving positive reviews from critics, including a 3 star (Out of 5) Review from german website Laut.de. The first single "Forever", released in 2001, had moderate success and showed a new mature, more natural-looking Sandra, still sporting short hair. Although some criticised the fact that The Wheel of Time contained no less than five cover versions of 1980s songs, including the second single release "Such a Shame" (originally performed by Talk Talk), the album debuted and peaked at number eight on the German Album Charts, where it became successful. Michael Cretu convinced Sandra to cover a Depeche Mode song, which she did in just one take - "Freelove".
