The ordinary name shows on the record: "In Sanssouci am Mühlenberg". Also sung in the French Foreign Legion, in French, likewise named "Veronika, Marie".

[@niklasscheidler8636]

The foreign legion sings a whole other version of it. Its mostly in french and has not a lot to do with the original

@@niklasscheidler8636 I dunno... Seems awfully similar in spirit to me.

@@niklasscheidler8636 it's almost a literal translation, same melody

Beautiful. This is the first time I see the song credited as "Veronika - Marie" as its main title on a record (it was its main title only on songcards). What is the reverse please? Thanks for sharing (see the full rec. date + additional details on Niel's FB page)

[@IvanSCF]

GrafPhono Thank you for the reply; so it's the same coupling as on the official release (Gramm. C 2609). Cheers!
