Peter Sarstedt

[blue b4 the moon]

RIP

For some reason 'Where do you go to my lovely' was one of my favourite songs on the radio as a young child.

 

[80s Shorts]

RIP.

Was he on the list ?

RIP Peter.
When I was a hippy in the sixties I thought 'Where do you go to' was a bit cheesy but it's actually a great song by a great singer.
It may be of interest to old fart rock aficionados like myself that his younger brother Richard (aka Eden Kane) is still alive and according to Wiki lives in LA.

There aren't many songs I can sing along to, but this is one of 'em! It took me a long time to find out who Zizzy Jeanmaire was! Rip, young Peter!

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

I used to work late nights in Sale and we'd end up in the Railway pub next to the police station most nights.
Every night without fail ''Where did you go to my lovely'' would come on the jukebox at the end of the night.... I never saw anyone put it on or sing along to it, but it always came on!

So farewell brother of Eden Kane.

So farewell brother of Eden Kane.

True. 'Well I ask you' was one of the grooviest songs of the summer of '61.

 

[Mr Ed (The Stables)]

You couldn't walk into a boozer anywhere that had a jukebox and the song "Where do You Go To my Lovely" wasn't played. I always thought he sounded like Donovan which is some compliment.

RIP and may perpetual light shine upon thee.

yes lovely song - listened to Bob Mills on talkradio earlier telling a coupe of funny stories about the guy. RIP Peter Sarstedt

I always thought his other hit Frozen Orange Juice was a real cracker and very much a song of its time and uplifting ! RIP Peter
