She also released a number of records in French. I recall noting that looking through her records in stores so many years ago now.I have 2 of her recordings on a playlist. One is "Marin" (French version of "Sailor, Sailor" which was a German/English song recorded by Lolita -- "Deine Heimat is das Meer") and the other is "You Can't Keep Me From Loving You" (also known as "Midnight in Moscow").
Petula's version of
Sailor (1961) is about the lover of a sailor who is exhorting him to "stop your roving" and return to her. It's considerably different from Lolita's 1960 hit
Seeman, deine Heimat ist das Meer (Sailor, your home is the ocean), in which the sailor's lover is giving up on him because his home is the sea, his love is his ship and he is addicted to traveling to distant places. (Incidentlly, Lolita is from Austria, which has no seacoast).
Marin (1961) is more or less a translatin of Lolita's version, yet a blond girl has not given up on the sailor and is waiting for him to return.
