  • To all friends interested in music, I am still researching the origin of this great tune. I'm sure it's european. This melody has been adopted by the citizens of La Paz ( the facto capital of Bolivia) and i'm trying to tell them that it comes from Europe. Morover, I have thought that C. Coborn was the author. Please write if there is more information. Thank you tigranvartanovitch for your answer.

  • Really enjoyable - A song from a true Music Hall star I remember my Father singing this one over and over back in the Forties when I was a little lad and amazingly still enjoying it. Many thanks for posting.

  • @otoniel509ify So the tune is Bolivian? The Italians say it's Italian, and the Russians say it's Russian.

  • @trublgrl Even though I don't think Mr. Coburn sounds like Henry Crun, it's pleasing to know anybody is still around who remembers Henry Crun and Minnie Bannister, and the whole cast of "The Goon Show." This song simply cries out to be rewritten about modern sports arguments, which all too often lead to bloodshed, and given the chance I may write and record that version.

  • Good lad Tomkins, good lad.

  • @trublgrl It's the other way round LOL

    Spanish - La melodía de Two Lovely Black eyes" se convirtió en el segundo Himno Paceño con el nombre de "Oh! linda La Paz". pocos saben de la historia. debe hacerse un reconocimiento al autor. Igualmente la primera vez que oí la canción , la versión en inglés, fue en 1969 por el gran grupo The Herman's Hermits" con Pete Noon a la cabeza.

  • Thank you for this song. The melody has a historical importance for the Department of La Paz -Bolivia-South América. This composer should be honored by the people of La Paz. The truth of the matter is that the people of La Paz have adopted the melody for the Department's SECOND HYMN after of course the Hymn to La Paz. this is a very popular melody and in Spanish it's called "Oh! LInda La Paz". Few know the background of this wonderful song. Thank you Charles.

  • This man should be honored and i'll tell you why.

  • @peterthepastor

    i'll say
