Marek Weber Tanz - Orch. - Oh Fräulein Grete (Llosas), 1930

[jonjamg]

Leo Monosson I believe! The words were written by Dr Fritz Lohner Beda (1888 - 1942 Auschwitz) He also wrote - In der Bar zum Krokodil, Du schwarzer Zigeuner, Drunt' in der Lobau, Ausgerechnet Bananen ,Ich hab’ mein Herz in Heidelberg verloren, Oh, Donna Clara, Wo sind deine Haare, August?, Was machst du mit dem Knie, lieber Hans? Dein ist mein ganzes Herz, Freunde, das Leben ist lebenswert and Meine Lippen, sie küssen so heiß. This song is about Greta Garbo - hot and cold!!

Leo Monosson? Or only similar voice?

Great to have your Grete clip back and in a notably more poignant version. The first series of photographs give a good impression of roaring pre-nazi Berlin, the last picture adds a brilliant sarcastic finishing touch.

Wonderful but sad also.

All that butch Nazi stuff about saving the nation from decadence... but it all ends in tears.

Same with the Roman Empire - it carried on happily decadent, until the christians hijacked it. The DISASTER!

Rome's decadence wasn't as happy as you think

and christianity actually saved Rome from total collapse.

There is however a group of FOREIGN peoples who secretly managed to kidnap Europe, and we are living the "wonderful" consequences today

Well, I see "Fraulein Grete" has resurfaced and is in great shape. Since I don't understand German, I now have an idea why everyone is calling her name. She was some HOT Fraulein!

This Nazi spoof realy makes a point in the last comment, just as good as Mel Brook's "Springtime for Hitler" in the Producers. WELL DONE!

Good to have the good Fraulein Grete back--and more appreciated than in the previous version. The last clip adds a poignantly ironic twist.
