  • you are right it's Brecht, Weill but not from die Dreigroschenoper, this song has been written in 1942 in New York at the Hunter College for Lotte Lenya for a promotional event to sell war bonds to a German audience

  • that is good to know, thank you for the information :)

  • is not of Brecht. It`s a Kurt Weill beautiful song. Soon I hope to upload my version

  • I'm sorry, but I'll have to disappoint you, you're only half right: the music is by by kurt weill, but the lyrics are by bertolt brecht :)

  • yes, it is one of Brecht's pieces :)

see all

  • this girl is a perfect actor! im kussing her hands!

  • Европейские Мародеры.

  • It is PJ Harvey's arragement of this piece, isn't it? I like.

  • @11dega11 I think she's awful! The original harmony is all changed and certainly not for the better! Her pronunciation is terrible and the notes are imprecise. Well, she's very young, she might get better with time!

  • @mpch62

    She is indeed performing Weill's setting of this poem by Brecht. Hanns Eisler also set it to music but the melody is completely different. You can hear Eisler himself singing it here on you tube. Search for "Hanns Eisler - Uns was bekam des Soldaten Weib"

  • opfis is right: music: Weil, lyrics: Brecht

    I like her performance. the only thing i object is the fact that amsteram is (don't know why) americanised. She says /amsterdaem/ instead of /amserda:m/

  • it's not at all a weill-song. it's a song out of <b>hanns eisler's</b> incidental music to "schweyk in world war II" on texts by <b>bertolt brecht</b>, which was written 1943 for voice an two pianos and had it's debut performance 1957 at warsaw.

  • schön gesungen! und die begleitung ist cool, kriegt ein bisschen westernstyle mit dem banjo(?) oder was das da noch ist. :)
