This is the version I grew up with - my sister bought the 45 in '65 when my father was posted to Germany with the Canadian Forces. Thanks for posting!
Essa música sempre mexeu comigo. Pelas ruas das grandes metrópoles desse imenso e querido Brasil sempre caminho pensando em DOWNTOWN. Muito bonita essa versão em alemão.
I love this song. Every time I'm kind of sentimental touches this song when I hear it. Petula Clark sings this song even personally on German. Even nearly accent-free. Petula Clark is a great singer.
That very cool. I love the Ina Martell. I'm glad you pick the German version of the song. It gives it character, a sort of charm not found in the original.
Je suis assez d'accord, la chanson semble acquérir davantage de relief en allemand et peut-être plus de "corps" et de force. Petula s'exprime dans un allemand pur et assez naturel, avec le charme de l'intonation anglophone qui ne nuit en rien au texte.
