Regentropfen - Tango -1936

[yoogleSUCKS]

1. die comedian harmonists haben regentropfen nie aufgenommen.

2. das meistersextett hat am 23.01.36 eine accappella-aufnahme gemacht.

3. die behauptungen des hochladers zu namenswechsel etc. sind unfug.

4. hier zu hören sind die metropol-vocalisten (wobei die schreibung, ganz zeittyisch, unterschiedlich sein kann), veröffentlicht 1935.

5. weiß vielleicht irgendjemand, um welches orchester es sich handelt? lewis ruth, ludwig rüth, odeon-tanzorchester? oder etwa marek weber?

@yoogleSUCKS Sorry. I don't speak German. From what I understood, you are saying that the Comedian Harmonists never recorded Regentropfen and that only Meistersextett did it à capella. There is a video named "Regentropfen" with Paul Dorn & Theo Heldt und sein Orchester (1935) here in youtube. More: you say that you don't like wrong information. I did what I could and used all that I had. Sorry if you didn't like. I'll edit the video in order to avoid further comments of this kind.

[222pj222]

@yoogleSUCKS Just another thing to add. I watched many of the Regentropfen videos here in youtube. In my opinion, there is one record that seems a lot to the one chosen for my video. If the information given in the video is correct, Die Metropol Vokalisten are the ones who sing it and the record is, acording to the video, from 1935. I hope you are satisfied now. Have a good day.

Danke fuer den Text!

Christian Hölbling did not write this song he just sings it with some additional and a bit sadistic lyrics. He is an austrian comedian, born in 1971. If he has no time machine he cannot be the author because Regentropfen was a hit by the Metropol-Vocalisten in 1935.

The interested can find a poem from the Lodz-ghetto inspired by this song at Google-Books: h t t p : // xrl . in / 5u4g

I don't care which group it actually sung. It sounds good and we all know the story of the group that"would be more famous than the Beatles today if we weren't forced to split up"

[KnockelII]

A nice song, well arranged in the style of the day, but it is obviously not the original Comedian Harmonists.

[222pj222]

Well, this is the information that my CD contains. I wasn't born at that time. Some of you are saying that it is Meistersextett, some say that it is not. Well, who even they are, Bruce Springsteen Quintet, Whoopie Goldberg and the Nuns of Changing Habit, the Trapp Family, Adriana Calcanhoto and Ivete Sangalo, it doesn't matter, they are good. I only wanted to share the infromation I had. If they are wrong, I leave to the Masters to say. Oh, I know, perhaps it is Jason Mraz or Cassandra Wilson.

@KnockelII

Jau, es ist vom Meister-Sextett (früher Comedian Harmonists). Die Aufnahme stammt vom 23.01.1936.

[billiewilder]

@songofpinkpanther Nein, das ist definitiv nicht das Meistersextett. Sie habens, wie du richtig sagst am 23.1.36 aufgenommen, allerdings ohne Orchester und an den Stimmen merkt man auch, daß sie es nicht sind

[jaapbakker]

Wie gut hätte die lyrische Tenorstimme von Ari Leschnikoff zu diese Aufnahme gepasst...

[222pj222]

Ich stimme aber ich denke, die Interpretation, dass mein Video nicht verwendet esstá auch nicht schlecht.

[RHYMEMAIDEN1]

Nice song though! I expect it is either the Comedy Harmonists or the Meister Sextet.

[schusterlehrling]

Meistersextett.

You can hear Robert Biberti as the leading vocal.

[RHYMEMAIDEN1]

Hate to sound pedantic, but the Comedian Harmonists had split by 1936, owing to their being banned by the Nazis because of the three Jewish members. The Jewish members had immigrated to Austria and formed "The Comedy Harmonists." The non-Jewish members had formed a group called "Die Meister Sextet."

[222pj222]

No problem. You don't sound pedantic. You just feel that way. The record says Comedian Harmonists and the year is 1936. Thanks for your comments.

[moucis]

@222pj222 Then your Record is wrong. The recording is known as Regentropfen by the Meistersextett.

By the way it was written by Josef Hochleitner and composed by Emil Palm.

The most complete songlist can be found on w w w comedian-harmonists c o m

[222pj222]

@moucis How interesting. So, in other words, what you are saying is that it is not a song by the Comedian Harmonists and from Meistersextett and we can find it at the site dedicated to Comedian-Harmonists. Fascinating!

[HeideknabeNels]

@222pj222 yes because 3 members of the Meistersextett were origin members of the Comedian Harmonists. The other 3 had to leave Germany.

[WienWSGT]

At all who speaks English do you understand the Song ?

[9999900004222]

I have a degree in German (could even teach German if i can find a job) and I understand the song well.

[Marlene55M]

Yep, me! @WienWSGT

[minacciosa]

Great song. WHo wrote it?

[222pj222]

Christian Hölbling.

[raymansarack]

Tha´s not from Comedian Harmonists, it´s from :

"Das Meistersextett"!

But it´s the half Comedian Harmonists.

After the break up 1935 the arien members(Bootz, Leschnikov, Biberti)ground a new group called "Das Meistersextett".

But it´s still a very nice Song in the same way as the Comedian harmonists does!

[222pj222]

Thanks, Frank. I've checked the informations before puting the video. They seems a bit strange. Comedian Harmonists recorded since 1927. In 1934 they changed their names to Comedi Harmonists. Only after 1937 the Meister-Sextett appeared. Regentropfen was recorded in 1936 as from Comedian Harmonists.

[whizbang47]

What a beautiful song. I can't get enough of them. Make that 22 times 5 stars. Many thanks!

[222pj222]

22 times thank you. The Commedian Harmonists simply perform it in a so perfect way.

[222pj222]

I have to thank you too.

[Inky261]

good 5*

[222pj222]

thank you.
