Peccato che sia finita cosi - Udo Jurgens

When Udo Jürgens represented Austria at the Eurovision Song Contest for the first time in 1964, he did so with the song 'Warum nur, warum'. The song was a big success for him despite not winning the Contest: fellow contestant Matt Monro recorded the song in English as 'Walk away' and the song became an international hit. 

Udo recorded 'Walk away' himself too, as well as a version in Spanish and in Italian. It is the Italian version that is listed here, with the impressive longer title 'Peccato che sia finita così'. It means 'Too bad it ended like this', in case you're wondering.
