Sombre dimanche, les bras tout chargés de fleurs, je suis entrée dans notre chambre, le coeur las, car je savais déjà que tu ne viendrais pas, et j 'ai chanté des mots d' amour et de douleur. Je suis restée bien seule et j'ai pleuré tout bas en écoutant hurler la plainte des frimas. Sombre dimanche. Je mourrai un dimanche où j' aurai trop souffert. Alors tu reviendras, mais je serai parti. Des cierges brûleront comme un ardent espoir. Et pour toi, sans effort, mes yeux seront ouverts. N' aie pas peur, mon amour, s' ils ne peuvent te voir. Ils te diront que je t' aimais plus que ma vie. Sombre dimanche.. + Informações

Edith always sang her songs for the man she was in love with at the time. In 1936 when she heard Annette Lajon sing L'Etranger, Edith told Simone Berteaut, "Momone, I've got to have that song,..Listen to it, it's Mermoz. That's what I'd like to have happen with him." The man was french avaiator Jean Mermoz. The year was 1936. Edith stole the song. Annette Lajon slapped her in the lavatory for doing this, and said "If she didn't have talent, I would have slapped her onstage." ("Piaf" Simone Berteaut- translated by June Guicharnaud) The songs is about a young woman , most likely a street walker, who falls in love with a sailor and hopes he would free her from her unhappy life. Instead, he leaves her and his body is later found in the sea. Aviator Jean Mermoz disappeared at sea in December of 1936. ( Piaf must have some kind of magic touch.) The credits for this song read, "Juel, Monnot, Malleron." It is generally recognized as her first hit song with Marguerite Monnot, with whom Piaf would have a life-long collaboration. American audiences know her as the author of the Broadway hit show, "Irma La Douce." Thanks once again to philipchek of Youtube and Paris for his help with this translation.. + Informações

Flowers are words of love) was a very popular tango in France in 1942. It was sung by French cinema's golden girl Danielle Darrieux in "La Fausse Maîtresse" (The fake mistress) - the last movie she made for German owned Continental-Films. "La Fausse Maîtresse" was based on story by Honoré de Balzac and saw Darrieux working in a circuas a trapeze artist and singer. Darrieux' first Continental movie was "Le Premier Rendez-vous" which was a smash hit. Its title songs remains a classic to this day. "Les Fleurs sont des mots d'amour" was recorded by Danielle Darrieux for Polydor, by Marie-José on Odeon and Annette Lajon on Pathé. The orchestra of Pierre Pagliano accompanied Lajon but in an arrangement that is very different from his solo recording. The story of Continental-Films is quite fascinating... France had a very important movie industry. After France's defeat in the Second World War Germany allowed French production to resume as it knew full well there was a need for distraction and the French had a large appetite for movies which could not be satisfied by the films present in the archives. So movie production was quickly resumed. The scripts had to be approved by censors and any person of jewish origin or politically unreliable was to be excluced from the film making process.

Please activate the HD function(1080p/720p) before watching the video or watch it with a larger type player (in 480p) What to say about Marcel Véran? Quite frankly nothing.... I haven't been able to dig up any information on this singer except that he recorded with several orchestras as refrain singer and made some recordings on his own as well... Any information would be more than welcome... "Mon Coeur part en Voyage" is the very different French version of "Bambina Innamorata" (Baby in love)- a very succesful Italian song composed in 1934 which has become a classic.... Whereas "Bambina Innamorata" is a romantic love song, "Mon Coeur part en Voyage" is the opposite as it tells the story of a love that has ended and the singer - or rather his heart - embarks on a voyage in order to forget his lost love.... I found this record in Amsterdam at "De Weergever" -the society of collectors of 78rpm records (as well as historic recording/playback equipment) in the Netherlands. As I did not know the singer nor the Italian original (not mentioned on the label) I was intrigued by its romantic title... I am glad I brought this record home... For those interested in the collector's society (in Dutch only): www.de-weergever.nl A beautiful version from 1934 by the popular Italian singer Luciana Dolliver (1910-82) can be found here : www.youtube.com The video follows the lyrics of the song with images of trains as well as the original sheet music of "Mon Coeur part en Voyage" which was a .... + Informações

Robert Gaden's elegant rendition of Pola Negri's big hit "Ich spür in mir" (English version "Stay close to me") from her comeback movie "Mazurka", directed by Willy Forst. Pola Negri had become a star in German silent pictures, she was especially good in the movies directed by Ernst Lubitsch. Soon she followed him to Hollywood where she became an exotic and vampish leading lady. With the arrival of sound her Hollywood career faltered as her accent was considered too heavy for American audiences. She made a sound picture in the USA in 1932, "A woman commands" in which she sang the standard "Paradise" Pola returned to Europe where she started a succesful singing career and appeared in the French movie "Fanatisme". She was then asked to star in Willi Forst's melodrama "Mazurka", which was an enormous succes throughout Europe. Hollywood was interested and bought the film rights but Pola's hopes of returning to Hollywood were soon dashed as Kay Francis was signed to star in the American version called "Confession". Pola Negri filmed and recorded in Germany until 1938 (she lived in France between filming) and starred in "Moskau-Shanghai", "Tango Notturno", "Madame Bovary", "Die fromme Lüge" and "Die Nacht der Entscheidung".... In 1939 she returned to the USA but sadly appeard in only 2 more productions : "Hi diddle diddle",(1943) and "The Moonspinners" (1964). She died in Texas in 1987. About the record : This is a repost.
