Released in 2008,
Wettsingen in Schwetzingen is a unique MTV Unplugged album: it acts as a singing contest between German soul singer
Xavier Naidoo and the band he formed and still records with,
Sohne Mannheims. Recorded at the Rococo Theatre at Schwetzingen Castle, Germany, the two-disc, 25-track list features acoustic performances of both acts' biggest hits, including "Babylon System," "Fuhr Mich ans Licht," and "Wenn Du Schlafst." The German number one album also includes appearances by
Cassandra Steen,
Daniel Stoyanov, and
Azad. ~ Jon O'Brien
