Bei Mir Bistu Shein (Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen) - Recorded by Ange Takats

Bei Mir Bistu Shein (Yiddish: בייַ מיר ביסטו שיין, "To Me You're Beautiful") - this song was composed by Jacob Jacobs (lyricist) and Sholom Secunda (composer) in 1932 and recorded in English by the Andrews Sisters in 1937.

Australian singer songwriter Ange Takats recorded this folk acoustic version in 2010 and edited this montage of photos to pay tribute to her grandparents Walter and Jutta Matters.

Thank you for sharing this. I watched it twice and found myself sobbing both times. Beautiful and moving. What a beautiful and loving couple your grandparents were.

Very nice tribute to your grandparents.

Perhaps one of the most popular yiddish

songs ever recorded.

Interesting video and images.

I love yiddisch songs. I love to sing them also. And you are singing them also well. I sing jiddisch songs in yiddisch, it sounds a little like german which I speak.

It gave me goosebumps. This is absolutely beautiful and very very moving, the song in itself and all the meaning therein. Wonderful!
