Most Famous Schlager Singers and Bands of the 21st Century

Schlager is a popular German music genre that involves mainly around simple and easy going topics such as love, relationships and feeling good with mostly happy melodies. Being often labeled as feel good music, it is polarizing, but no one would deny its significant role in German pop culture. Once known as a genre mostly for elderly people, in the 21st century the genre had a huge revival, now being one of the most popular genres among teens. I am personally not a listener of the genre, but I don't mind it either.
