Yeah, finally found this song! Heard it first in a short film called hotel chevalier (its attached to the movie the darjeeling limited) and instantly liked it!
Literally grown up with this song, as it was released the year I was born! Was one of Mum's favourites, so played endlessly all through my childhood. I love it still. Never seen this before though, and so after all these years first time I've seen what Peter looks like! Hair styles were different then weren't they.........!!
After all this time can I DARE to comment that SEMI WHITE people from INDIA tried to pass themselves off as WHITE. Ask the antecedents of another Great singer called EDEN KANE. This is his brother. PLEASE tell me that I am wrong. GREAT SONGS though.
I was 12 when this was released and it sounds as good today . A classic which stands the test of time . Peter Sarstedt should be proud of his contribution to music with this song .
A remarkably sophisticated song for its time. He was one of three Sarstedt brothers who all had chart success. But this song stands out from the crowd because of the intimacy of his performance. Like he's telling it as though it really happend. That's how convincing I think the song is.
rather exceptional, a song by a british singer which is not smooth and uncritical. It's one of my favourites. Otherwise I don't really like british songs.
I always find it a little problematic when people say that good music only existed in that times and today's music is crap. I think there is still a lot of real good music today, but trouble is that on the radio they mostly play the same *beep* over and over again and it's difficult to discover real gems, but they still exist.
@Inoitspointless He is white. Perhaps the black and white video is confusing you. Search him on Google images and see what he looks like in colour photos, especially as an old man.
Poor Marie-Claire! So loved and understood, but so scarred inside her soul. Thank you for this beautiful song, and for giving me the possibility to remember some things from my teens.
the ugly green monster of jealousy is in comments,,,,,,or theyre just soul less morons that cant grasp musical emotions like in this story/song ,,,forgive them,thhey no not what they do ,,,
@VienneseDelights Poorly written? This guy has more talent in his little finger than 90% of the crap that's produced today. Could you do any better? I doubt it.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
@mikser : Let´s say this guy has exactly AS MUCH talent as the people who are producing all that crap today.
- Poorly written: Of course! Mr. Sarstedt doesn´t even bother to add a B or C part to his song. That must have been too challenging. So it the same part repeated over and over again! They should torture people in Guantanamo with that stuff.
- Could I do better? Of course! So could any semi-talented person.
so wait, people are making fun of his looks? I always thought he was smokin' hot... maybe people are jealous of his 'stache and the fact that he could probably get more pussy with his amazing voice?
Want to KNOW. This song is about ASIAN girls who tried to be WHITE. This was a song from so long ago, but times have changed since then and THEY are now accepted bys SOME people.
@tonybell1948 , Oh Tony I`m so sorry to hear this sad news, not making light of it, but maybe your Dad and your wife Lyn are having a dance to this lovely song...
This is great! I used to listen to his Greatest Hits heavily back in England and now I can't find the CD... I've listened to his song for the first time in about ten years !!
This was a massive hit at the time, but I never got it ~ name dropping extraordinaire, and the verse and the chorus sounded the same, infact there was no chorus or middle eight , just the repetition of a couple of bars, becoming interesting right at the end....... although it did catch the 'jet set' glamour scene at the time.
Mikey,why don't you try listening to the song first? He's got a really nice voice and it's a very good song. And try thinking first, before making silly, immature comments.
And it's true what mikey says, this guy from an age where a voice was more important than image. Just listen to Roy Orboson and tell me he'd succeed now!
Further to my comments below, I feel that I should add that Mr Sarstedt himself was not a bad looking guy at all in 1969 (judging by this archive 'TOTP' footage of him, performing his classic song "Where Do You Go To My Lovely"', in the February or March of that year).
I believe that Peter was around 23/24 years of age when his outsanding song reached # 1 in the UK charts. He may not have been quite as good-looking as Scott Engel (for example) ...... but he was far from being an ugly bloke.
Unquestionably one of the classic pop/rock singles of the past 50 years. (That is stating the obvious, I know.)
With regard to the comment [above] by "sadkingbilly", I would agree that, in those days of the late 1960's/early 70's, how an artist SOUNDED was of greater importance than their 'looks'. Sadly, that is not necessarily true today, in the 21st century. The pop/rock music industry - and indeed society in general - is that lil bit harsher and more 'cut-throat' now that it was then.
Although I was 19years old when I first saw this, I thought he was very old! Despite this, it's a song I have always loved, and i only recently discovered that he is brother to Edan Kane! Amazing. Whatever happened to the 2 of them?
From the time when it was important how an artist sounded and not how they looked. These days it's all smooth, young shiny cute boys and girls who cannot sing two words without mixboards and two soundmasters. Well, I'd rather have these artists back.
@sadkingbilly -couldn't have said it better..the Chris Blackwells, Ahmet Erteguns, George Martins etc. who saw the talent are gone...today the music industry is run by a handful of mega-corporations where turnover for quick profit is the name of the game...and where image and the right haircut accounts for everything and talent is of secondary importance....gone is the golden age of great music!!
And check out my video treatment of this great classic..from Terrythekittie
I do not disagree with your comments. That said, I feel it is important to point out there were some very good-looking pop/rock stars - of both genders - around in the 1960's. For example, McCartney was an exceptionally handsome young man in his youth ...... as indeed was Scott Engel, aka Scott Walker, of The Walker Brothers. What is more, there were some highly attractive female stars around in that decade, too - Michelle Phillips and Jane Birkin (to name but two).
@sadkingbilly I have to disagree...The Beatles they were great yes, but they had matching suits and well groomed hair...well in their earlier years. But well I agree on everything else you said.
@sadkingbilly Umm, all the girls that are famous can sing really good, don't hate. And everyone has a special beauty, it just takes something to bring it out. It might be their make-up, surgery, or personalitys that make them attractive. But celebrities where once just me and you. We're all very pretty, if we realize it
not sure why but i always get a lump in my throat with this record, if you are only going to make one classic record then this is it. well done Peter. Crazy comment brigade on here, remember this was 1969, things were different then and far better than they are today..
@blakiethemod Agreed - might have only been 4 at the time - but 69 was a year of many achievements - Concorde's first flight, Man on the moon, and potentially the best Bond film (OHMSS) - what more do you want from a year ?
WOT IZ DIS YO!? DIS IZ NOT DA FINE NO MERCY TRACK WHERE DO YOU GO MY LOVELY? WHO IZ DIS LAME GUY WIV DA GUTIAR. MARTYS GUITAR IZ SO MUCH MORE SEXY AND DINGDINGDINGDADING! DIS SONG IS FOR FAGS YO.
@harveyderf You're an idiot to even compare the two songs. Different Styles, different decades. Besides, this a song sung by a man about a girl. How does that make it 'FOR FAGS YO'. Only in your opposite world, where listening to No Mercy is 'FINE' and a man loving a girl is gay.
@aloneintherain29 U WOT, U WOT!? DEY IZ MUSIC SO U CAN ALWAYS COMPARE DA SOUL OF MUSIC. NOMERCY HAV LATIN FIRE EN PETER SANDSFAG HAZ A WET BLANKET. DIS SONGS IZ FOR FAGS CUZ HE AINT TALKIN BOUT FUCKIN LIKE NO MERCY DO. YO!!!
@aloneintherain29 I completely agree with you. He must be living in some kind of ''tough guy world''.... removed from all sensitivity to human emotions
Anyway in other matters, I was wondering whether you want to borrow an umbrella, for when you're alone in the rain? also, there's a lot of splashing going on in that video....hmmm it sounds fun...oh and are you Santa Clause?....so what are you bringing me for Christmas? lol
@harveyderf Speak English man, then someone might know what you're babbling on about. Btw this is a love,..something, I doubt, you would know anything about.
@SuperDonna888 Ah you must forgive me I was using the parlance of our time. I am a professor of linguistics and firmly believe one must adapt ones communication style depending on the medium. However I digress, also I studied the love poetry of the 1990s and I from my readings know more than a little about love. Haddaway pondered it with the seminal 'What is love!? Lady don't hurt me no more' and No Mercy gave a visceral account with 'Where Do you Go' compared to Peters more cerebral effort.
@harveyderf Having said that, I accept and agree, that in some circumstances and with some people, the use of parlance, might be a more effective and fitting way to speak. In reference to your comment about ''knowing more than a little about love'' I would only say, that, love can only be detected by the heart, and not from a book, though the notion of love might be. Regardless all is forgiven...just leave my Peter alone lol .... Kind regards from Donna
@harveyderf hahahaha Mr. Harveyderf, you naughty man, I thought you were fresh from the ghetto, speaking as you did....You know, you run the risk of giving the wrong impression of your good self, albeit said with a certain parlance. With all due respect, I take an alternative view, in so much, that, I think it is more important to speak clearly and as concisely as possible, in all communications, thus raising the standard of The English Language in general,
@SuperDonna888 YOUR Peter? Last I checked, the man was a slave to love secrets only I was equipped to deliver. We met as two free spirited youths back in West Bengal in the 50's. W more stars in our eyes than money in our pockets, we fell in love with reckless abandon, as children often do. I never forgot this enigmatic man. When he penned this song, about a ne'er do well POSER, I was crushed, dismayed that he was held captive by one so shallow. Yet, we are linked thru karma and aligned chakras!
@jasonismyhomie Well I call ham my Peter because I'm rather protective and defensive of those whom I like or love, even though I don't know him personally, he's still my Peter, if you will pardon my possessive expression. I know very little about Peter, but I'm fascinated by your comments...Was she his girlfriend? and is it true, that she came to an unfortunate and premature end? ...You say she was a poser and shallow...hmm sometimes it's difficult to understand why the heart desires, ot needs.
@jasonismyhomie Well it sounds like you and he, had a lot of fun in your teens. Are you both from W. Bengal? amd was Peter from a rich or poor background...if I'm not being too intrusive...I'm just interested in people's lives, as one might read a biography. anyway, no matter if you'd rather not say. Thank you for the comment. best wishes
@SuperDonna888 Well I'm not so fresh at the ripe old age of 62 but I am from what you disparagingly called the 'ghetto'. I was raised in Harlem by my grandma. She equipped me with tools to succeed - a love for reading and a storng work ethic. I went on to become head of faculty at the Eric Zoolander College in NYC. Not bad for a scamp from the 'ghetto' eh? I must disagree, I reach my children with the parlance of our time, then I hone their skills so they can too read good.
but is the hair real? that's something else. sort of like Macca if he hadn't come back from acid. good song though - no they don't make those quasi protest songs anymore
At least it was real music - people who could actually play instruments. It's not new bands who are actually musicians that are the problem - though of course it couldn't be new to us - it's manufactured, X-Factor, computer-generated garbage that's the problem.
There is still good music out there being made. Every generation says the music of the present is trash. Me included sometimes so just remember your parents trashed your music and theirs before them.

I do not disagree with your comments. That said, I feel it is important to point out there were some very good-looking pop/rock stars - of both genders - around in the 1960's. For example, McCartney was an exceptionally handsome young man in his youth ...... as indeed was Scott Engel, aka Scott Walker, of The Walker Brothers. What is more, there were some highly attractive female stars around in that decade, too - Michelle Phillips and Jane Birkin (to name but two).

@sadkingbilly I have to disagree...The Beatles they were great yes, but they had matching suits and well groomed hair...well in their earlier years. But well I agree on everything else you said.

Beatles started off with a bit of irreverance for rock. Like Faces or Cockney Rejects.

@sadkingbilly Umm, all the girls that are famous can sing really good, don't hate. And everyone has a special beauty, it just takes something to bring it out. It might be their make-up, surgery, or personalitys that make them attractive. But celebrities where once just me and you. We're all very pretty, if we realize it

not sure why but i always get a lump in my throat with this record, if you are only going to make one classic record then this is it. well done Peter. Crazy comment brigade on here, remember this was 1969, things were different then and far better than they are today..
blakiethemod 1 year ago
@blakiethemod Agreed - might have only been 4 at the time - but 69 was a year of many achievements - Concorde's first flight, Man on the moon, and potentially the best Bond film (OHMSS) - what more do you want from a year ?

@harveyderf You're an idiot to even compare the two songs. Different Styles, different decades. Besides, this a song sung by a man about a girl. How does that make it 'FOR FAGS YO'. Only in your opposite world, where listening to No Mercy is 'FINE' and a man loving a girl is gay.

@aloneintherain29 I completely agree with you. He must be living in some kind of ''tough guy world''.... removed from all sensitivity to human emotions
Anyway in other matters, I was wondering whether you want to borrow an umbrella, for when you're alone in the rain? also, there's a lot of splashing going on in that video....hmmm it sounds fun...oh and are you Santa Clause?....so what are you bringing me for Christmas? lol
SuperDonna888 1 year ago
@harveyderf Speak English man, then someone might know what you're babbling on about. Btw this is a love,..something, I doubt, you would know anything about.
Peter is FAB and you're not, so there mister...
SuperDonna888 1 year ago
@SuperDonna888 Ah you must forgive me I was using the parlance of our time. I am a professor of linguistics and firmly believe one must adapt ones communication style depending on the medium. However I digress, also I studied the love poetry of the 1990s and I from my readings know more than a little about love. Haddaway pondered it with the seminal 'What is love!? Lady don't hurt me no more' and No Mercy gave a visceral account with 'Where Do you Go' compared to Peters more cerebral effort.
harveyderf 1 year ago
@harveyderf Having said that, I accept and agree, that in some circumstances and with some people, the use of parlance, might be a more effective and fitting way to speak. In reference to your comment about ''knowing more than a little about love'' I would only say, that, love can only be detected by the heart, and not from a book, though the notion of love might be. Regardless all is forgiven...just leave my Peter alone lol .... Kind regards from Donna

@harveyderf hahahaha Mr. Harveyderf, you naughty man, I thought you were fresh from the ghetto, speaking as you did....You know, you run the risk of giving the wrong impression of your good self, albeit said with a certain parlance. With all due respect, I take an alternative view, in so much, that, I think it is more important to speak clearly and as concisely as possible, in all communications, thus raising the standard of The English Language in general,

@SuperDonna888 YOUR Peter? Last I checked, the man was a slave to love secrets only I was equipped to deliver. We met as two free spirited youths back in West Bengal in the 50's. W more stars in our eyes than money in our pockets, we fell in love with reckless abandon, as children often do. I never forgot this enigmatic man. When he penned this song, about a ne'er do well POSER, I was crushed, dismayed that he was held captive by one so shallow. Yet, we are linked thru karma and aligned chakras!

@jasonismyhomie Well I call ham my Peter because I'm rather protective and defensive of those whom I like or love, even though I don't know him personally, he's still my Peter, if you will pardon my possessive expression. I know very little about Peter, but I'm fascinated by your comments...Was she his girlfriend? and is it true, that she came to an unfortunate and premature end? ...You say she was a poser and shallow...hmm sometimes it's difficult to understand why the heart desires, ot needs.
SuperDonna888 1 year ago
@jasonismyhomie Well it sounds like you and he, had a lot of fun in your teens. Are you both from W. Bengal? amd was Peter from a rich or poor background...if I'm not being too intrusive...I'm just interested in people's lives, as one might read a biography. anyway, no matter if you'd rather not say. Thank you for the comment. best wishes

@SuperDonna888 Well I'm not so fresh at the ripe old age of 62 but I am from what you disparagingly called the 'ghetto'. I was raised in Harlem by my grandma. She equipped me with tools to succeed - a love for reading and a storng work ethic. I went on to become head of faculty at the Eric Zoolander College in NYC. Not bad for a scamp from the 'ghetto' eh? I must disagree, I reach my children with the parlance of our time, then I hone their skills so they can too read good.

At least it was real music - people who could actually play instruments. It's not new bands who are actually musicians that are the problem - though of course it couldn't be new to us - it's manufactured, X-Factor, computer-generated garbage that's the problem.

There is still good music out there being made. Every generation says the music of the present is trash. Me included sometimes so just remember your parents trashed your music and theirs before them.
