About the Song
"Du, du liegst mir im Herzen" ("You, you are in my heart") is a German folk song, believed to have originated in northern Germany around 1820. The song's most recognizable element is its refrain, ja ja ja ja, which is perhaps more famous than the song itself. It was notably referenced in the film Blazing Saddles, where it is sung by Madeline Kahn (playing a caricature of Marlene Dietrich) and a group of Prussian soldiers, and it also features in Top Secret! and Alfred Hitchcock's "Lifeboat" sung by Walter Slezak.
