A new CD by Reinhard Mey and yet so familiar in the melodies, in the thoughtful lyrics and in the quiet way he brings them. Now, in recent years, not all songs on my CDs really liked, so I'm kind of approached cautiously to the new. Right next to 'Summer 52' I was right in the middle in the right mood and song to song-liked and getting better and at 'Three years and one day' was somewhere a highlight for me as me. We went on and at 'Schrader's film palace' I sat still to nachzulauschen the song and who can describe my astonishment at the end: suddenly - after a pause - played and sang Reinhard Mey a French song and after a few lines, I knew what It was: 'Le temps des cerises' and how he sang it, which got under my skin. I've never heard this song so quiet and without pathos. Yes, dear Reinhard Mey, "the time of cherries", where one breaks open like a dream to pick earrings that fall like drops of blood from the leaves, this youth, which is short and you and we are left with the memory .. it , Thanks for the hidden track. He is a gift, like the whole CD itself.
