Eydie Gorme - Blame It On The Bossa Nova - Spanish Version

[hebneh]

At the very end, it's funny to hear the original back-up singers suddenly reappear with the line, "Now was it the moon?" in English.

[DelanoProfundo]

@hebneh....Back up singer were The Cookies. I don't think they knew how to sing in Spanish.

[MountEquinox]

Eydie Gorme's real name is Edith Gormenzano & is from Spanish parents. Raised in New york, After her parents came from Spain. She is also a Sephardic Jew. She speaks spanish very well, & has done, back in the day, with some very big name Hispanic artists. I am not sure if Eydie was born in Spain, or she was born in the U.S but yes, she is pretty much a Latina Jew. I love Eydie, though. I was so upset her & Steve were not in Vegas when I was vacationing there about a year ago...

@MountEquinox She was born in the Bronx- her dad was from Sicily and mother from Turkey.

I think she is so beautiful,and this song sure brings back memories. Wish i could go back in time and kiss this pretty lady.

[cemab4y]

[mystery10man]

[KalakaSLP]

Una de las canciones más llenas de recuerdos y buen espíritu en mi vida...

[andwen66]

viva los sephardim!

[MrDRUID27]

My cousin had a version in German when we were kids (early 60's). Don't know who sang it. All I know is I love that version and the lady who sang it was beautiful.

[shmuli9]

@MrDRUID27 Her name was Manuela, and she had LOTS of German hits. Sadly, she died in 2001 of, of all things, mouth cancer...

[circulologos]

esta cancion esta tatuada en mi memoria mis padres la ponian una y otra vez. ahora k vivo lejos de ellos, es para mi una forma de estar conectado con ellos!!!!!!!

[MPJ1952]

What an interesting glimpse of a fascinating woman these comments allow us. Like her slightly smoky voice and like the song, both in English and in Spanish. Remember it vaguely from when I was a kid but it must have been the German version I heard on the radio at the time. We didn't have a record player!

[YAMIL5055]

Un hermoso recuerdo de mi juventud!!!

[maritza08queen]

i like this song in both versions pero la escuche primero en español por mis parents

[WillsPills56]

The spanish version is interesting.

I am used to the english version.

I have a friend that understands both languages.

[dllewiszz]

With her perfect Spanish and English, she was a language translator at the United Nations before becoming a singing star. She and Steve have been married more than 50 years.

[timnug]

@dllewiszz

I think even more interesting regarding Edie Gorme's first job, is that she was a High School student when she was first hired as a Spanish translator by the U.N. Wow!

[brian777999]

It sounds better in Spanish .

[bobbalitzer]

Micra she is a sephardic jew she grew up speaking spanish and english.

[LorcaAdonai]

the english Portuguese and if its in Italian, they all suck compared to this

[Micra78]

I am from Mexico and I have to say we absolutely love her there. And she sings amazingly in Spanish. She only has a hint of an accent, her Spanish it's almost perfect.

[turbo1964]

I'm glad you commented on Edie's ability to sing in Spanish. I was wondering about that. I think she sounds harshr and loud in this version, almost more down to earth than the english version.

[kurchatov324]

I was only 8 when I heard this song in both English and Spanish, and even at that age I fell in love with Eydie.

[erzbet07]

Ay, Caramba! Fantastico en espagnol too!

Gracias for posting!

[bobbalitzer]

Viva Edie!

[liebtiff]

Thanks for posting this wonderful song in Spanish. This song is a personal favourite of mine and has helped me to shed 75 pounds in nine months. I will never grow tired of Eydie's incredible voice nor this incredible song.
