After a longer musical break and health challenges, Christian Franke returns in 2009 with the single "Geh nicht fort (Guardian Angel)" and finds new success. He made another comeback in 2011 with the track "Der Apfelbaum", a collaboration with panpipe virtuoso Edward Simoni. The joint album Leben! reaches the German charts and is praised by critics.
