This is the discography of the German Europop and New Wave duo Modern Talking. The duo have released their materials over a period of two separate time tables, first between 1984-1987, then the duo found itself reunified in 1998 and made a successful comeback releasing another batch of materials between 1998-2003. Modern Talking's sound; however, was rather different from its original 80s sound after its reunion. The duo came back in 1998 recording their materials based on what the demand was in central European music markets at the time in late 90s, which required their original 80s mellow Europop sound to switch into 90s uptempo Eurodance.
Modern Talking, throughout their existence, have released 20 singles, 12 studio-albums, 17 international compilation-albums and two video albums containing their hit-videos.
