Mercie Chérie - Thank you, Udo!

His career spanned nearly 60 years, and in 1966, he became the first Austrian to win the Grand Prix Eurovision de la Chanson. He wrote worldwide hits for Shirley Bassey, Sammy Davis Jr., and Bing Crosby, had number one hits in France and Japan, and sold over 100 million records. Udo Jürgens is one of the most famous entertainers, singers, and composers in German pop music. The Schlager legend passed away in 2014. What remains are his compositions, as Udo Jürgens promised: "I leave you everything!" His songs are versatile and encompass the genres of chanson, schlager, and pop. His entertaining and sometimes critical lyrics still captivate people around the world today. The program ranges from true rarities to the biggest hits like "Mit 66 Jahren," "Ein ehrenwertes Haus," and "Ich war noch niemals in New York."
