Mixed Emotions was a German pop music group formed in 1986, consisting of members Drafi Deutscher and Oliver Simon. Drafi Deutscher did not only sing, he also wrote and produced all the Mixed Emotions songs.

Their best known hit is probably from their first year of 1986, the song You Want Love (Maria, Maria). Other known songs are Bring Back (Sha Na Na), Sweetheart - Darlin' My Deer, Just For You and I Never Give Up. After 5 big selling singles and two successful albums the group split in 1989.

In 1991 Drafi Deutscher decided to continue with new member Andreas Martin under a slightly changed name - New Mixed Emotions. The new line-up released an album called Side By Side and two singles.

In 1999 the original line-up with Drafi Deutscher and Oliver Simon reunited under the original name Mixed Emotions for a new album called We Belong Together consisting of 2 new songs and 11 remakes (new music, new vocals) of their old hits. They did a lot of tv shows. After that album the group parted again.
