I like this video a lot. Marianne is singing the tune live over the recorded music track. And she's killing it, too. This is the prime example of what they used to call "Schlager" in Germany (Hit Music, more generally pop music).
I was a big fan of the German electronica at the time, Can, Kraftwerk, Tangerine Dream, and Kraut-Rock in general, Amun Duul, Guru Guru. Der Schlager meistens gefaelt mir nicht (The pop music, not so much). I think this was a Eurosong winner. I'm pretty sure that's how it came to my attention. Whatever, it's been a favorite of mine since the late 1970s.
