[edit] Biography
After working at a book shop in Linz and singing in several bands, she reached #2 in Starmania, an Austrian Music-Casting TV show. Her first song was Ich lebe, published in 2003, which was very successful in Austria and was followed by several #1 hits.
In 2004 the song Vorbei reached the German Top 100, and in April 2005, a new version of Ich lebe was produced especially for the German and Austrian market. That song reached very high positions in Germany, Switzerland and Italy, making Christina Stürmer well-known in the German-speaking countries. 2006 was her most successful year. She sold more than 1.5 million copies of her CDs in Austria, Germany, Switzerland and South Tyrol.
In 2007 she wants to record her album for Japan and the US(see TBA) and many music experts say, that she'll probably bring out her first "best of" album in Austria at the same time (see Schwarz Weiss).
