Irgendwo auf der Welt
"Irgendwo auf der Welt" ("Somewhere in the World") (1932) is one of the most popular songs by the German 1920s and 1930s sextet, the Comedian Harmonists. The music is by Werner Richard Heymann, the lyrics by Robert Gilbert.[1] It voices a sentimental longing for a yet undiscovered place where peace of mind and true happiness can be found.
The song has also been part of the repertoire of the new Berlin Comedian Harmonists ensemble since it was formed in 1997.
In 2006, German singer Nina Hagen used this name as the title for her album of covers of swing / jazz classics.
