Cherry Cherry La..



I hope you were never bothered with Modern Talking or their song Cheri Cheri Lady (wait for the refrain in hiiiigh pitched voices, brrrr).

This can happen when Germans try to sing English and want to use French words with it.
Instead of "chérie" (with accent aigu and an "e", as far as I know a lady is female after all) they blurt out "cherry" and I always had to think of cherries when this awful song was played on the radio.
I hope you are not a Modern Talking fan, otherwise I might´ve just offended you and in that case I´m very sorry - people like different styles, I am aware of that (reckon the chances are very, very low, though ;-)...).

None the less!
Here are some cherry-blossoms, ma chérie ou mon chéri :-)



So sad it´s over so soon!



Beautiful, no, what a waste, too!



Awwww... spring!

I soooo wish I hadn't clicked that link Iris 😀😀 such a shame the cherry blossoms are so short lived, no wonder everyone goes mad taking pics in that short period!

P.s. your comment on my blog made me lol too. Your person wasn't very relaxed at all, I just couldn't do it 😀

Iris Flavia said...

LOL, Grace, did you wait till you got the high-pitched cherries? "Sorry"! :-)
Yes, too short the beauty (of the blossoms!) is around!
Yupp, the driver wasn´t trusting Leonie too much. I´d be way too close to a heart attack doing that!

No offence taken, but I used to enjoy Modern Talking in my younger days when we lived in Germany. Their songs were so cheerful 😄😄 "You're my heart, you're my soul" and "Brother Louis" were my favourites.
Beautiful cherry blossoms, love the bed of dandelions and pink blossoms.

I don't know the song -- and that may be a good thing! But I do love cherry blossoms -- it's always sad to see them go (and the dandelions arrive!)

Iris Flavia said...

Oh... my goodness, Sami!!! Oh! Now I feel bad! Like I have to laugh, but I feel very guilty!
I hated that music. Oh.... forgive me! Please!

And to you both, Jeanie and Sami: Yay for the blossoms.

Seesh. Chances being low... I´l be very careful about that in the future!

I think I heard this tune back in the day. I thought the geezers were British or something. It never occurred to me that they were German. Have no idea why. Well, that's 80s for you! :-) Great pics.

Greetings from London.

Oh! I really was not aware Modern Talking-music was liked. But in general I didn´t like the 80´s much...

I always enjoy seeing cherry blossoms ... hate it when we have windy or rainy days and they get knocked off the trees.
Enjoy their colour while we can.

All the best Jan
