"As a swede and more or less grown up with Zarah Leander, when parents always saying " children be quit Zarah sings on the radio" This CD are very good. I love the recording from 1950 of the song "Irgendwo,Irgendwan fängt keine Mädschen an" from the movie Gabriela, you also have the beautiful song sanged so divine by Die Leander " Ich will nicht vergessen" its the same with "Du bist genau mit die anderen". Just a curiosity the last track a potp called "Die Lustige Witwe" Mrs Leander are singing duett with sven Olof Sandberg the most famous popular singer in Sweden between 1930-1950. I guess Zarah Leander was even bigger and more popular then Greta Garbo in Sweden and in german speaking countries 1930-1950. This Christmasday the Swedish Television (SVT) showed a 1,5 /h very interesting documentary of Zarah`s life from the begining to the end and she herself was the speaker, based on her own storries broadcasted in on the radio 1972?."

"This compilation of 20 of Zarah Leander's hits made my 87 year old German mother very happy. It brought back so many of her memories of youth. She remembered all the tunes and all the lyrics. She said she couldn't believe she would ever hear these songs again in her lifetime, and here they all were!"
