Herbert Arthur Wiglev Clamor Groenemeyer (born April 12, 1956 in Goettingen) is a German musician and actor and is very popular in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. He starred as war correspondent Lieutenant Werner in Wolfgang Petersen's movie Das Boot, but later concentrated on his musical career. His fifth album 4630 Bochum (1984) was the best-selling German language record of all time. In 2002 he achieved his first number one single with "Mensch" from the album of the same name, which was strongly influenced by the 1998 s of his wife Anna and brother Wilhelm (both dying within one week). His other brother Dietrich is a distinguished professor of medicine. He has acted in such famous films as Das Boot and Spring Symphony. Herbert's forays into the English language have met with very little success as his typical lyrics, full of wordplay, proved impossible to translate well. He remains mostly unknown outside the German language countries... Time Magazine awarded him the title of "European Hero" in 2005 for his humanitarian work. .. ........
