Nena feat. Nena is the twelfth studio album of German pop singer Nena. Also called 20 Jahre Nena (20 Years of Nena) and 20 Jahre—Das Jubiläums-Album (20 Years—The Anniversary Album), it contains new versions of her hits, some of them duets with other singers, including Kim Wilde on "Anyplace, Anywhere, Anytime", Joachim Witt on "Wunder gescheh'n" (Miracles Happen), and Udo Lindenberg on "Jetzt bist du weg" (Now You're Gone). The album was first released with a red cover in 2002. In 2003 it was reissued with a blue cover and a bonus CD of live tracks. The songs on the bonus CD are also reworked, suggesting that Nena may have planned to update more of her back-catalogue, although there have been no further releases in this vein.
While Nena the singer remained active and popular after the demise of Nena the band in 1987, releasing several albums for adults and children, she was unable to recapture the chart success she enjoyed in the early-1980s. Nena feat. Nena changed that. It was wildly successful in her native Germany, peaking at No. 2 to become her first top-ten album there since Feuer und Flamme in 1985. It also reached No. 1 in Austria and No. 5 in Switzerland, and remained in the charts for over a year in all three countries. Nena feat. Nena has sold more than 1.5 million copies worldwide, making it one of the best-selling albums by a German artist in the new millennium. It reestablished Nena as a national icon and international star.
