This is such a beautiful rendition like every piece of music touched by Peter Alexander whom we so sadly lost last Saturday.

He is finally reunited with his wife Hilde and daughter Susi. Yes, one can die of a broken heart - he just did.

We extend our heartfelt condolence to Michael and his family.

Robertino sang the original version of 'Mama'

@megan6168 Thanks for your comments. He lived a long & wonderful life, even though much sadness sometimes comes with it. I didn't know Robertino did the original version of this....thanks for that, will have to check him out.
