Where it came from
Released in 1969 on the Polydor label, this single features the American singer Gus Backus, who established a significant career in the German Schlager music scene throughout the 1960s. The song plays on a well-known German tongue-twister about the city of Ulm, reflecting the lighthearted and often humorous nature of the popular music produced in West Germany during that period.
The recording fits into the tradition of novelty Schlager, where catchy, rhythmically repetitive lyrics were often paired with buoyant arrangements to appeal to a broad radio audience. While the song is a minor curiosity in Backus's extensive discography, it serves as a piece of kitsch pop history that highlights the era's fascination with wordplay and local German cultural motifs.
