The singer was in the same record company as Dieter Bohlen, and Gerd Rochel was the author of many compositions for her. The Modern Talking group, for which Dieter Bohlen was the producer, was very popular with fans, so all members were invited to perform in Japan.

She used her chance and all hopes were fully justified. While touring Japan, she achieved maximum success. Throughout her tour, Patty Ryan has drawn crowds of fans. Her compositions began to sound everywhere and occupy the first lines in the charts in dozens of countries. The singer began to be recognized on the street, invited to photo shoots and tours.
