I lived in Immediate post war Germany for several years and have come to love the popular music of the period.Zarah Leander with her beautiful, seductive voice and faultless delivery was always a pleasure to listen to.Thank you so much for posting all these videos .
какой голос! какой язык, тембр, нежность, женственность, образ романтика - действительно великолепно! дух захватывает. слушаю это вот с ютью уже много тысяч раз и не могу насладиться !
The original song was in Yiddish, written by Sholom Secunda, and pronounced "Bei mir bist du shayn", meaning "I like you" or "you're great". Leander sings a Swedish translation of the verses, but the one-line refrain has been turned into German: "Bei mir bist du schön" - not a known phrase in standard German, though it's understandable. Presumably the song was Germanised to erase its Yiddish/Jewish origin and because "schön" rhymes with some Swedish words in the verses (e.g. bön).
nunca en esta vida lo había llegado a escuchar pero creo que en una vida pasada si lo escuche. me encantó y lo mejor detodo es que se me hace tan familiar, no se como ni por que....
I hear it thousends and thousends times and can never get enough of it, ohhh, these voice is sooooo beautiful, soooooo schöööön für mich!!!! I like it till oblivion (unconsciousness)!!
прекрасно!! это так красиво, какой голос, какой язык, эстетика, мелодия, такт - гениально, я в восторге до потери сознания, оооооооо бай мир бист ду зооооо щен, зооо бьютифулььь - как это редкостно красиво!!! умерет!!
During 1938, several recordings of 'Bei mir bist du schön' were released in Germany (including the famous one with the Andrews Sisters). I uploaded a recording by Russ Morgan, released in 1938 on German Brunswick. Only later, the song was banned.
somebody asked about her very precise pronunciation, especially the r. she was trained in the classical theatre and cabaret tradition in sweden where it vas very important to deliver a text with the right r- and sch-sounds.Before germany she sung in the legendary Karl Gerhard-cabarets. His texts were very sharp,witty and intellectual and had to be understood by the public. They also werw political and so anti-nazi that he got into trouble with the german embassy in stockholm.
Bei mir bist do schon, please let me explain Bei mir bist do schon means you're grand Bei mir bist do schon, again I'll explain It means you're the fairest in the land I could say "Bella, bella", even "sehr wunderbar" Each language only helps me tell you how grand you are I've tried to explain, bei mir bist do schon So kiss me and say you understand Bei mir bist do schon, you've heard it all before but let me try to explain Bei mir bist do schon means that you're grand Bei mir bist do schon, it's such an old refrain and yet I should explain It means I am begging for your hand I could say "Bella, bella", even "sehr wunderbar" Each language only helps me tell you how grand you are I could say "Bella, bella", even "sehr wunderbar" Each language only helps me tell you how grand you are I've tried to explain, bei mir bist do schon So kiss me and say that you will understand
@LittleImpaler Yiddish has adopted many words from those languages (most Hebrew/Aramaic, less Slawic, little others) , but its base is medievial southwestern German. The Grammar and most of the "simple" words clearly show these roots and that's why it's a Germanic language.
Yes it was, When Joseph Goebbels heard it, archly he is said to have remarked to Zarah isn't Sarah a Jewish name, upon hearing this Miss Leander is said to have replied Yes it Is , and isn't Joseph one to.
@muryb71 dont be a muppet man, look it up!! the song was written by shalom secunda and jacob jacobs in 1932 for a yiddish non hit musical for which the writers were paid $30 between them by the decca record company and translated it for the andrews sisters who made it a hit. would you like to know some more?
Zarah Leander was one of the most beautiful actresses that has ever lived Joseph Goebbels I'll have to give it to him had Great taste in retaining Zara for the German film industry
Zarah Leander ( 1907- 1981) foi a maior atriz e cantora, em toda a Alemanha Nazista de 1933 a 1945. Zarah Leander era uma sueca e deixou a Alemanha Nazista, em 1943. .
@jarabaa In German dialects or sociolects usually are not written down. A German jew would write "schön" but still they would pronounce it more like scheyn. Yiddish is closer to German than most rural dialects or e.g. low saxon. Of course you can also try to transcribe your dialect in a phonetic way. It is also fairly normal that a dialect/language totally shifts meaning when translated into a standardized scripture.
Evocative...hervorrufend, sentimental und gleichzeitig fröhlich. Uebrigens kann man ein CD-Set kaufen, das dieses Lied u.v.a. enthält. Nicht teuer, schauen Sie in eBay.
@jarabaa Guess what, Yiddish is a middle age German dialect with a few Hebrew elements, was spoken by Ashkenazi jews throughout Eastern Europe, sometimes written in Hebrew letters.
Sure they did. Once a song had been published as sheet music, or recorded, the names of the composer(s) and the entity that held the rights to the song were established. Particularly if a song was released nationally in the USA, there would be no way a version in English could NOT have been produced without payments to the composers.

This is the first song I have heard by Zarah Leander and sounds great! Great artists can transcend language with voice and music!

In my language it is a gem.

Zarah Leander (1907 - 1981) was the star in Nai Germany, between 1933 and 1943, when Zarah Leander returned to Sweden.

in stockholm in the 30s the chic people dansed to this music in the winter garden of Grand Hotel. The orchestra was one of the best in Scandinavia.

Bei mir bist do schon, please let me explain
Bei mir bist do schon means you're grand
Bei mir bist do schon, again I'll explain
It means you're the fairest in the land
I could say "Bella, bella", even "sehr wunderbar"
Each language only helps me tell you how grand you are
I've tried to explain, bei mir bist do schon
So kiss me and say you understand
Bei mir bist do schon, you've heard it all before
but let me try to explain
Bei mir bist do schon means that you're grand
Bei mir bist do schon, it's such an old refrain
and yet I should explain
It means I am begging for your hand
I could say "Bella, bella", even "sehr wunderbar"
Each language only helps me tell you how grand you are
I could say "Bella, bella", even "sehr wunderbar"
Each language only helps me tell you how grand you are
I've tried to explain, bei mir bist do schon
So kiss me and say that you will understand
Can You Please Tell Me what Language She Is Singing? Is It Yiddish? Thank You.

Fine Song Zarah Much Aloha from Hawaii
Es wird einmal ein Wunder geschehn.
Gran bella Donna, labbra stupende, interpretazione eccellente e coinvolgente, musica straordinaria, che altro ? ...
... ganz toll. Zarah Leander singt ein jüdisches Lied zu Zeiten des Nationalsozialismus - geht's noch ?
Wieso?
Das ist jetzt in welcher Hinsicht verwerflich?
Great videos. Congrats!
Wenn man das öfter gehört hat, gefällt es..
Als ich es das erste mal gehört, hat es mir nicht gefallen!
Aber jetzt höre ich es sehr gerne...
Toda una legendaria voz en seguir cautivando con el correr de los años.
beautiful
she was wonderful
Najlepsze wykonanie tej piosenki przez Zarah
я люблю, люблю, люблю это - оооо, как это прекрасно!!!
Ottimo lavoro!!!!!!Zara Leander!!
Brava!!!Brava!!!Brava!!!
Wunderbar!

Großartig
Thanks, MY Brain needed this.
Great hit ! thanks
Brain needed this one again: Thanks.
@jarabaa Guess what, Yiddish is a middle age German dialect with a few Hebrew elements, was spoken by Ashkenazi jews throughout Eastern Europe, sometimes written in Hebrew letters.
J'aime également cette version plus jazzy que la chanson originale en yddish, plus lente et plus triste. cette version est arrangée et plus dansante.
Thanks again.
thank you
Auf Schwedisch! In Ihrer Heimatsprache!
fine Nr. from Zarah! Aloha from Hawaii
Ty masz w sobie coś ... ❤️🌷🌹
Wonderful..I feel like daning
This great song has emerged as a dixieland instrumental and vocal. Monte Suffern hhas a great piano version on Utube.
Självklart! Tack.
die ersten takte sind doch auch in einem genetikk Lied gesampelt, oder irre ich mich?
Zarah Bei mir bist Du so schoen Aloha from Hawaii
Great song, thanx!
I wonder what the swedish title is?
I wonder, back in the day, when they changed the words for foreign audiences, did they still pay royalties to the original composers?
Sure they did. Once a song had been published as sheet music, or recorded, the names of the composer(s) and the entity that held the rights to the song were established. Particularly if a song was released nationally in the USA, there would be no way a version in English could NOT have been produced without payments to the composers.
@maomaoska I think it's "You're beautiful to me" or something like that
Literally "For me are you beautiful", so you're exactly right. :)
edit: Wow, I just noticed this is a ten year old comment.
man muss sich wundern, dass dieses jüdische Lied 1938 von ihr gesungen wurde. Erstaunlich. Er wurde allerdings in Stockholm aufgenommen.
Hammer !!!! WOW
Yiddisches Lied auf schwedisch - mal was Anderes... Die Band ist toll
Thanks!!!
Zenstvenost i ljepota. !!!
Bravo!
@picayunesco The Band behing her is Iron Maiden
wow
Does anyone know where I can find the lyrics to this? When I google the song, I can only find the Andrews Sisters version
:(
It was originally in Yiddish but has been sung in both German and Swedish so good luck
muito boa as musicas alemãs🇧🇷🇧🇷
Eu vim só por curiosidade cultural, mas a musica é boa
O nome da música significa: Comigo, você é linda.
