The commercial recording of Junger Mann from the musical Karneval - TopicsExpress



          

The commercial recording of Junger Mann from the musical Karneval der Liebe became known as Haben Sie schon mal im Dunkeln geküsst?, sung by Evelyn Künneke (1921-2001). The song is quite naughty with Evelyn explaining the delights of kissing in the dark... She was the daughter of composer Eduard Künneke and became known to a larger audience when she recorded Sing Nachtigall sing (Sing nightingale sing), a melancholic love song written by Michael Jary in 1941. She was featured as a singer/dancer in Karneval der Liebe. As mentioned the music was considered very American and swing and this can clearly be heard in her interpreation. Evelyns big time came after the war however, when she recorded many Michael Jary compositions... All pictures/images from personal collection. See video response (Dorit Kreysler/J. Heesters) for original movie version.youtu.be/zEjZxcHEXwk
