Harry Winter (born Horst Winter) performing "Und jetzt ist es still", with the Wiener Tanzorchester. Song written by Hans Lang (music) and Erich Meder (lyrics) © 1948 Austroton.
Betty Hutton covered this song in 1951 with "Blow a Fuse", that was covered in turn by Björk in 1995 with "It's oh so quiet".
Very rare recording, enjoy ;)

I guess the Betty Hutton arrangement was by a German musician?

yeah, betty sutton does a great work with that song, cause how boring the way it is here.

@camadi69

I agree, she did a good work...Björk just "re-sang" her version, but still enjoyable ;)

[TantPire]

@Bonqo Not at all. Björk's version get it so much better. Betty's version sound like a cheap decadent circus song. Björk has wonderful voice.

[Bonqo]

@TantPire I like Björk and I agree she has a wonderful voice, but that's the only difference between her version and Betty's. The song is almost the same, but I still prefer Betty's performance.

thanks for uploading the video :D

it's good to see the original version of Betty Hutton and Björk's "It's Oh So Quiet"!

@Bonqo i have to side with @TantPire - Bjork's version is the best, she just injects so much soul and fun in to it

[sunnygirly2k4]

@cesiface Ah, thanks :)

[cesiface]

@sunnygirly2k4 'And now it's quiet'

[sunnygirly2k4]

What does the title mean translated into English - It's Oh So Quiet, right?

[Cirkelo]

I wanna hear Bjørk do this version.

[phizzyphizzy]

It's a pity that so much of it is lost in this recording. I'm sure this would be far from boring with a good quality audio transfer, very doubtful one even exists though.

@Bonqo

Bert did a good job!
