Peter Alexander sings 'Das Ganze Haus ist Schief'

Peter Alexander, Austrian actor, singer and entertainer who was revered both at home and in neighboring Germany, has died, his spokeswoman said Sunday. He was 84. The star who symbolized the return of laughter, lightheartedness and the economic upswing after World War II (similar to the popular trend in Hollywood) passed away Saturday. Since the 1950s, Alexander appeared in some 50 film comedies and recorded more than 120 records. He was also a regular on TV for decades. Known as "Peter the Great" by his fans, his name was synonymous with Austrian charm and wit.
Austrian Chancellor Werner Faymann lauded Alexander as a 'great Austrian.' "As an artist, Peter Alexander made generations of people happy — both at home and abroad". Culture Minister Claudia Schmied stated that Alexander was a pioneer of German language TV entertainment.
"Austria (and the world) is losing a great entertainer".
