Hi, Louis is my uncle and 12 November 1994 is his date of death. Thank you for this lovely tribute. He really was a remarkable person with the most beautiful heart. Great for our family to know that there were so many people that appreciated him and remember him. Thank you xxxxx
Hi Synergy Girl, I had the honor of meeting your Aunt Annelies in Port Elizabeth this January, but must have given her my wrong phone nr. I am so sorry about that, to have lost touch with her! Your uncle Louis was the most beautiful, talented Artist of his time in Germany! ALL of my friends and family in Austria still remember him and love him! He is unforgettable! RIP Louis xxxxx!
He looks so beautiful here and was definetly one of the great ones who gave this group such a positive vibe and a lot of good energy. No one can imitate that lovely band.
I'm from Brazil , I've always been a fan of this band , loved to hear them and see Louis Potgieter , I am sad to see the videos and know that this young man so beautiful , died so early , I see the videos always , Moskau , Hadschi Halef Omar Rom , too and other less known as Komm doch heim , Der Verräter that has beautiful lyrics and melodies
you are very welcome, to me, he was a great inspiration of wonderfull things when i found out about him on the internet, later on i found his sister on facebook by coincidence, we started talking, and once i showerd her this video i once made for him, she and the rest of your family were very thankfull. i'm really sad he passed away even if i don't know him, he seemed like a wonderfull man. and believe me, a man as Louis will never be forgotten by his fans, beloved and friends. good luck! xxx
Wow! what a beautiful tribute! Even after his death, he and the original group members continue captivating our hearts. May all of them and their families are always blessed as Louis Potgieter in heaven, in the Divine Light of God.
Er war ein grandioser Tänzer, der mir immer als Dschinghis Khan verkleidet in Erinnerung bleiben wird. Der beste Tänzer, den die Gruppe je hatte. Die heutigen kommen da nicht mehr ran.
Siempre seras grande entre los grandes, el mejor bailarín que mis ojos han visto, único e inigualable, con un extraordinario talento, sin duda naciste para bailar era tu sueño y lo hiciste realidad, lastima que tuviste que partir tan pronto, pero tu recuerdo vivirá por siempre en nuestros corazones porque eres eterno LOUIS I LOVE.
I'm so sorry for your loss.I have just recently discovered Dschingus Khan.What a fantastic ensemble of artists.I wish the I had known of their talents much earlier in my life.Your uncle was a true entertainer!!!Louis's legacy will live forever.My regards.
Hi dear SG, i have moved back to Austria after 34 yrs in my beloved SA - and all i can say (thought it has been forgotten) - your uncle is more loved and famous than ever!!!! He is truly a legend, most handsome guy! EVERYBODY here, even NOW still knows "Dsching Dschingistan..." you can be so proud of him!!! And pls send all my regards to yr Aunt Annelies :-) ooops of course: Dsching Dschingis Khan ;-)
My senses are tingling... [which is about a secret I'd only admit to people who really know me] But...This made me cry... WHY LOUIS!!! WHY YOU FIRST?!?!?! 😭😢
I am way late to the party, I only recently discovered the band. I totally fell in love with Louis only to find out he passed away 24 years before I discovered him. Was there ever a real biography done of him, if so was it translated to English? I would love to read more about him!
I now know him. Thanks to World's Dumbest on TruTv. They showed a clip with some guy from Finland teaching disco. I looked it up on UA-cam and found out they were dancing to a song called "Moskau" by Dschinghis Khan. I've listened to a lot more of their songs on UA-cam now because of that.
WOW what a discovery i made this week.... Dschinghis Khan ....great great show and Louis Hendrik Potgieter was an excellent dancer/singer/performer/actor .... just wondering how many SAffers are/were aware of him
Dear Louis, you made my dream since 2017. I loved your music especially ‘Moskau’. If you never existed, my life would just be damp, dusty air. I’m glad, you’re not wrong about every consequence you made. Now, thank you, Louis.
Chacha Maru Hello, I am from Chile, since this year I am a fanatic of the group. I love Wolfgang Heichel. I wish we could make a group on facebook with Latin American fans as they have many but they were not well known here in the radios. Have some info from them such as why Henrriette and Wolfgang were separated or how Louis died?
According to the Internet died from complications related to AIDS in South Africe.AIDS is often transmitted through sexual contact, blood. Dangerous is the use of the same syringe (rather junkies case ...). However, I have no source confirmed, and I do not know if true, so I hope I did not offend his memory, for any errors apologize calmly criticize :)
@stardustja hmmm... i forgot, i found it once, and the most creepiest thing was when i found his original death date, it WAS the day he died...that was soooo weird, i will search it for you again :)

Was he married? Did he have any children?
I am a big fan of his and his work with Dschinghis Khan... Too bad the good artists die young =/
