Yesterday in a german tv-show a guy called Uwe Fahrenkrog-Petersen (he wrote the music for "99 red-ballons") claimed that he has worked together with prince in several projects. Is that true? does anyone know which projects he talked about?

It suggests here (as rumour) that he possibly dated Appollonia

Uwe seems a little short on any firm details though.

He is also known as Jörn-Uwe Fahrenkrog-Petersen, and Nemo Fahrenkrog-Petersenmost.

He has written material for 'N Sync (that actually means one song, but 'material' sounds better) and most recently composed the score for 'Igby Goes Down.'

According to at least one report he ran up sizeable debts following his success with Nena.

During his time in the United States, it is also seemingly suggested here:

that he produced David Bowie and Madonna (??? - have I mistranslated that suggestion) as well as 'making contact with' Elton John, Michael Bolton, Jon Bon Jovi and Nile Rodgers (could mean he shared an elevator with them and asked which floor they wanted).

.No, he contacted Elton John, Bolton, Jovi and NILE ROGERS, the producer of some Bowie and Madonna albums.
Not very interesting.
