Background notes
Archive material and source history
Lale Andersen was a German singer born in Bremerhaven in 1905. She started performing professionally in 1931 under that stage name, which roughly means 'Laughing Andersen.' Her voice had a distinctive mezzo-soprano quality that she developed in local cabarets and choirs.
In 1939, she recorded 'Lili Marleen' for a German radio station. The song was written by Norbert Schultze based on a poem by Hans Leip. It became unexpectedly popular with soldiers and civilians on both sides of World War II, its themes of longing and separation resonating widely during the conflict. The Nazi regime viewed it with suspicion for being too sentimental.
Andersen faced personal difficulties during the war because her husband was Jewish. She recorded other songs like 'Melodien Meiner Heimat' and 'Der Wind Weisst Nicht, Wohin Er Weht,' but 'Lili Marleen' remained what she was known for.
