CONNIE:"Don't Break The Heart That Loves You" (GERMAN)
Uploaded by: kenslavin1961
Video Description:
Connie's GERMAN version of "Don't Break The Heart That Loves You," 1962. (The German title is "Tu Mir Nicht Weh.") This was a smash in Germany at the same time she had a number-one single on the Billboard charts with the English version in America. (Arranged and conducted by Don Costa.)
From the liner notes of "Connie Francis Sings German Favorites": "I first went to Germany in 1960," Connie recalls. "I decided to learn a little German and I took the song, EVERYBODY'S SOMEBODY'S FOOL, had it translated, and recorded it in German. The record was Germany's best-seller that yea
r! Actually, my German pronunciation on it was so bad that the company didn't want it to be issued. But I guess they found my American accent charming or something." Over the years, Connie's German accent improved immensely and her records continue to be best-sellers in Germany nearly 50 years la
ter! Music and photos from Ken Slavin's personal collection.
