"Romeo" is a 1961 pop song recorded by Petula Clark. ==History== Produced by Alan Freeman and featuring Big Jim Sullivan on guitar, "Romeo" was Clark's recording of a 1919 composition by Robert Stolz entitled "Salome" which had featured a German-language lyric by Arthur Rebner (de). The lyric for Clark's "Romeo" was newly written by Jimmy Kennedy: Arthur Rebner is sometimes afforded a songwriting credit for "Romeo". The song peaked at #3 on the UK Singles Chart dated 26 August. Despite peaking lower than her #1 UK comeback hit "Sailor", "Romeo" earned Clark her first Gold record by selling 400,000 units in the UK. In Ireland "Romeo" reached #1. Jean Broussolle who had translated Clark's precedent hit "Sailor" rendered "Romeo" as "Roméo" which became Clark's first #1 hit in France on 20 January 1962 - Clark's next two singles would also reach #1 in France where overall she'd top the charts five times. "Roméo" was also ranked at #1 on the chart for the Wallonia region of Belgium while the original English version had been a hit (#2) in Belgium's Flemish region. "Romeo" also achieved hit status in Denmark (#3), the Netherlands (#10), Norway (#7) and Australia (#25). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Romeo (Petula Clark song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
