This here is the French version of 'Merci, Chérie', and since he was recording in French, Udo also added three other songs in that language on this EP. When you look at the titles on this sleeve you can easily see that the translations were not literal: 'So wie eine Rose' became 'Je t'attends a Vienne', 'Das ist nicht gut für mich' became 'Ça ne vaut pas l'amour' and 'Siebzehn Jahr, blondes Haar' was shortened to 'Si'. It's a bit of a miracle that the title 'Merci, Chérie' survived.
