Surabaya Johnny


This song sounds great in the original German. It also sounds great here, in English. It's not an easy song to wring the correct emotion out of, but Ms. Faithful does a wonderful job. 

For German, you can look for the first version, by Lotte Lenya, who absolutely kills it (this one includes the German lyrics so you can sing along). Ute Lemper's version is also great.
