Udo Jürgens (born 30 September 1934 as Udo Jürgen Bockelmann), is an Austrian composer and singer of popular music whose career spans over fifty years. He has written more than 900 songs and sold about 90 million units, making him one of the most successful composers and recording artists in the world.
He is credited with broadening German-language pop music beyond the traditional postwar schlager in the 1960s by infusing it with a modern pop appeal; his exceptionally tuneful compositions and sophisticated arrangements attract fans of all ages, and even in his 70s he continues to fill the largest concert venues in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.
In Japan this song was covered in Japanese in 1971 as "Wakare No Asa(別れの朝)" and became an Oricon #1 hit for a Japanese pop band called Pedro & Capricious(ペドロ&カプリシャス). This heavily-arranged version became one of the J-Pop classics.
