(1996). Written by Nosie Katzmann, it was a top-20 hit in several countries, like Austria, Finland and Germany. On the Eurochart Hot 100, it peaked at number 65 in February 1997. Critical receptionBritish magazine 'Music Week' rated "Break It Up" four out of five, adding, "Shock of the week the German trio press pause on their noisy techno and unleash a simple but stunning ballad instead. If radio bites, this could be huge." In an second review two months later, they gave it five out of five, writing, "This epic ballad, a massive hit on the continent, has been around for two or three months and, with greater familiarity, sounds even more anthemic. It could be massive." Music videoThe accompanying music video for "Break it Up" was directed by Rainer Thieding and features the band performing on a train.
