Lyrics

It seems to me that there are no lyrics sung in the original recording. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.151.180.227 (talk) 21:17, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

First recording versus original recording

Can anybody explain to me why the article speaks of an original recording by Paul Whiteman from Aug 23, 1920, and of a first recording by Ray Miller from July 1, 1920? Is it simply that the first recording did not have the same commercial success as the second recording? And so most people would remember the recording by Whiteman as the first recording that they noticed and that's why it is now called the "original recording"? If so, wouldn' it be more correct to call Ray Miller's recording the original recording? And state that the first commercially successful recording was the one by Whiteman?

Comedian Harmonists recording

The Comedian Harmonists recorded three takes of this song in Berlin on 17-DEC-1934 with matrix numbers ORA 275-1, ORA 275-2 and ORA 275-3. The first take was released as HMV B.8274 and HMV AE 4465. Source: Irgendwo auf der Welt by Andreas Schmauder (1999) (self-published, Freiburg/Breisgau)

There is NO indication that the Danish composer Bernhard Christensen provided the arrangement. His name happens to appear on a CH related web page (http://www.dumboozle.com/eurojazz/eurodex.html), but only to state that he arranged this song for Danish female trio "The Kordt Sisters" in the 1940s. Practically all CH arrangements were written by founder Harry Frommermann, with a smaller number contributed by pianist Erwin Bootz. The straightforward style and absence of "instrument parodies" would seem to point to Bootz in this case. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.202.212.150 (talk) 16:12, 13 March 2021 (UTC)
