YidSistas are back for another one: A classic and timeless! And so much FUN!
Written by Jacob Jacobs (lyricist) and Sholom Secunda (composer) for a 1932 Yiddish language comedy musical, which closed after one season. Five years after its 1932 composition, the song became a worldwide hit when recorded under a Germanized title as "Bei mir bist du schön" by The Andrews Sisters. Another hit version was recorded by the Barry Sisters.
In 1938, the song was a smash hit in Nazi Germany, until they discovered that the lyrics were Yiddish and not a South German dialect as they had thought! Ooops!
Any other Yiddish songs the YidSistas should tackle?
