I am indeed back in New York City, but I am not the star of Bertoldt Brecht's famous PLAY. 😀

I was thinking the song,Mack the KNIFE. 😀

Indeed you were. And the original play in which the character Mack the Knife (in German: Mackie Messer) appears was The Threepenny Opera (in German: Die Dreigroschenoper). The play made its debut in 1928. The author of the play (but not the music) was Bertolt Brecht. 😀

I did not realise the song was based off of a play. 😀

Yes, the play was a musical and one of the songs in it was the original German version of "Mack the Knife." ("Mackie Messer" in German.)

Wow. Neat how the music from the original sounds so similar to the Bobby Darin version. 😀

As far as I know, the music was composed by Kurt Weill in 1928 to go with Brecht's play and was never changed. The lyrics were translated loosely into English, and the first English version I could find on YouTube was by Louis Armstrong. 😀
