Plans for third album and sudden split
Aqua spent the first few months of 2001 touring around the world, and working on material for their third album. The group also performed at the Eurovision Song Contest 2001, collaborating with the Safri Duo and providing the music during the voting stages of the competition. During a couple of low-key events in Denmark the group performed live versions of songs intended for inclusion on the third album, including "Couch Potato" and "Shakin' Stevens (Is A Superstar)", the latter a tribute to the 1980s performer Shakin' Stevens. The songs were said to have incorporated a rock sound into their music.
Aqua's last major live performance was at the Eurovision Song Contest 2001, where they performed alongside the Safri Duo during the voting process
By the Summer of 2001, however, problems between the members of Aqua were becoming apparent. René had, when the group first started releasing material under the Aqua name, been dating Lene. Lene had by now begun dating Søren, however, and reports of a rift between the three had been reported in the Danish press. Other reports had included that René was annoyed at his having a lesser role on the Aquarius album, and that the group was beginning to have other creative differences. Lene had also had some health problems, having collapsed on stage during their 2001 tour due to the exhaustion of the group's busy schedule. Despite the reports, most of their fans were surprised when, in July 2001, the group announced that they were going to be parting their separate ways.
The group's split proved to be quite a major event across Europe, and many media sources speculated as to why the four had decided to call it a day. René, in an interview after their split, had denied any rift between the members of the group, and stated that the four had split on good terms. The four had allegedly agreed to split when having dinner together, deciding that it was the "best thing to do". Regardless, many fans of the group still believe a rift between the band members was at least a partial cause for the breakup, especially given the past sexual relations between Lene and both René and Søren.

i have continuously were given the effect that Metallica change into up their personal ***. i do not pay interest to a large purchase of their music, yet I purely continuously were given the feeling that they idea way too exceedingly of themselves. inspite of the actuality that, i might want to correctly be incorrect, like I stated, i do not recognize a large purchase about them. I communicate about Queen too a lot haha, yet i imagine they were very humble. i have considered interviews the position Brian might want to says how taken aback he change into at the same time as they could excursion Japan or South united statesa.. He change into surprised at fairly what number of human beings loved them and knew their names, and he says he's continually taken aback. As a collection, i don't think of they loved to communicate too a lot about themselves, or what they contributed to music, yet i imagine they knew.
