Love this. My uncle William Blezard was Dietrich's musical director. I think he would have loved this too. It brought Blau Angel to mind

SUNDAY RAIN

Introduction in English:

Germany in the 1960s was still very much influenced by the Nazi stink. Violence and black pedagogy still prevailed in families. Beatings and spankings were part of the natural educational repertoire of parents. 
Unfortunately, my father and mother also joined this then socially accepted community of thugs.   
In this often ominous and latently threatening time, Doris Day was for me the ideal projection screen for a world full of harmony, clarity and lightness. 
Since my parents basically loved me (they themselves had been traumatized by terrible experiences of violence in Nazi Germany and, due to a lack of suitable trauma therapies at the time, unconsciously went from being victims to perpetrators when beating us children), they took my childhood crushes on Doris Day seriously and at some point gave in to my urging to write her a (fictitious) letter from Germany.... 
As an adult, I distanced myself from my childhood crush on Doris Day for a long time, since critical film analyses tended to portray her as a representative of superficial, shallow and pseudo-harmonic acting and song art. 
Then I saw her again a good ten years ago at the „Berlinale“ in a documentary with Rock Hudson and his HIV infection at the beginning of 1985. Nobody wanted to get Hudson, whose HIV infection was diagnosed in Moscow, out of there and bring him back to the U.S. by plane. Most were afraid of becoming infected themselves. 
Not so Doris Day. She, along with several other actors, organized the flight back. And when Rock Hudson, who was already seriously ill with AIDS, stepped out of the plane after landing in the U.S., she demonstratively stood next to him and put her arm around him. Even today, tears come to my eyes when I think of this unique gesture of solidarity and loyalty. 
Since that magical moment in a Berlin movie theater, Doris Day has become immortal to me. 
And I can only say: I was not at all mistaken in my early love for her....

Lyrics in English

My Blond Angel

When I was a little boy 
Just a meter high 
I fell in love with your blond hair 
That always smelled like cinnamon stars to me

I'd watch TV in the afternoon and then I'd see you 
As you came on the screen
You were pure harmony, clinically pure, high polish
You exuded carefree elegance

No one believed I could fall in love like that
Little boys are supposedly not ready for that yet

But I suffered, I pined, I was sick with love
My blond angel from the faraway land

My parents told me she lives far away from here
In the great wide U.S.A.
Her name is Doris Day and she'd already have
A husband to take care of her

But I wouldn't give up
I cried and cried until my parents realized
They found out her residence and address
And after my continued insistence,

I dictated a love letter to them both
My father translated it for her

He threw it in for me, I was still too little for that
My blond angel from the faraway land

When I sat in front of the screen the following weeks
She looked at me differently
She looked quite in love, my letter seduced her
Since then I was her little husband

For a long time I was ashamed of this love
But recently I saw her
More magical than ever
For me she remains a shining light
I love her

Nun a taq taq taq taq taq

Hey yah yah yah
Hey yah yah yah

Hey-o
Hey-o
Oh-ay

In the time of lowest light
In the days of shortest sight
You crawl you crawl
You claw your way on hands and knees
You call you call
In the time of lowest light
In the coldness of the night
You crawl
Crawl
You call:

Hey yah yah yah yah
Hey yah yah yah yah
Nunataq

Into the till
Scrounging for gems

In the time of lowest light
In the days of shortest sight
You crawl you crawl
You claw your way on hands and knees

Your own little ice age
Your pit pond
You sinking in the outwash

Raking stones
Breaking bones
Changing history
Raking stones
Breaking bones
Changing history

Your own little ice age
Your own little ice age
Your own little ice age
Your own little ice age

I go to visit this track and thank you toward all which he/she stops and heard. Please listen in headphones.
A connection of the blood. A bond. 
I feel that the connection of the blood has nothing to do with loving people. 
What decides the relationship with another person?
All people want you to connect by this earth. No, all the things existing in all space.

I Saw the sign - I drew the line
I pondered how the mask defines us
I’ve hidden all my feelings in a vault
I felt like I - should hide not cry
I’m blamed as all the feelings die
She may as well have bathed my wounds in salt

She said - don’t ever let me think about the past
She said - don’t be yourself - so I’m bare foot on cut glass
She said - such angry things - that I hid behind this mask
But you - your eyes

Why blame me for - a life before.
I couldn’t have fun anymore
I never thought that I had done much wrong
I gave support - though she’d purport 
My falsehood in a vocal fraught
With venom that must have been there all along 

She said - don’t ever let me think about the past
She said - don’t be yourself - so I’m bare foot on cut glass
She said - such angry things - that I hid behind this mask
But you - your eyes - negate disguise


Friends never make good lovers
But loves should always be best of friends 
After all of the turmoil
I’m hoping for something that never ends
Something so rare and so perfect
A product of the past for which I’ve made my amends

She said - don’t ever let me think about the past
She said - don’t be yourself - so I’m bare foot on cut glass
She said - such angry things - that I hid behind this mask
But you - your eyes - negate disguise
And you - bring trust - you’ve got me sussed

The Mask That Defines Us

Deutscher Singer-Songwriter über fünfzig Jahre alt. Seit fast vierzig Jahren schreibe und singe ich Lieder. Mein Hauptinstrument ist die akustische Gitarre, aber ich mag auch Perkussionsinstrumente (Cajon, Maracas, Gurio). Ich liebe es, melancholische und poetische Balladen zu komponieren. Aber manchmal schreibe ich auch (schwarze) humorvolle Songs, Jazzstyle und -Rocksongs. Meine Hauptsprache ist Deutsch. Aber in Zukunft will ich mehr Songs auf Englisch und vereinzelt auch Französisch schreiben.
In meinen Kompositionen bin ich inspiriert von Leonard Cohen, John Lennon, Jacques Brel, Van Morrison und Bob Dylan. Auf meinen Platten spiele und singe ich alles alleine. Meine Vision für die Zukunft ist es, Musiker aus verschiedenen Kulturen zu finden, die gerne ihre Tracks mit mir teilen wollen.
Mein persönliches Mantra ist ein Satz, der von Paul Mccartney auf dem Beatles-Album "Abbey Road auf dem Track "In the end" vor fast Fünfzig Jahren geschrieben wurde:

Die Liebe, die Du bekommst ist gleich der Liebe, die Du gibst.

German singer-songwriter over fifty years old. For almost forty years I have been writing and singing songs. My main instrument is the acoustic guitar, but I also like percussion instruments (Cajon, Maracas, Gurio). I love composing melancholic and poetic ballads. But sometimes I also write (black) humorous songs, jazz style and rock songs. My main language is German. But in the future I want to write more songs in English and occasionally also in French.
In my compositions I am inspired by Leonard Cohen, John Lennon, Jacques Brel, Van Morrison and Bob Dylan. On my records I play and sing all by myself. My vision for the future is to find musicians from different cultures who would like to share their tracks with me.
My personal mantra is a sentence written by Paul Mccartney on the Beatles album "Abbey Road on the track "In the end" almost fifty years ago:

The love you take is equal to the love you make.
