About the Song
"Answer Me, My Love" is a popular song, originally written (with German lyrics, under the title "Mutterlein") by Gerhard Winkler and Fred Rauch. The English lyrics were written by Carl Sigman in 1953. Sigman first wrote the song as a religious-themed song, "Answer Me," (in which the first line reads "Answer me, Lord above") as a question to God about why the singer has lost his lover, which became a joint #1 hit both for Frankie Laine and David Whitfield in the United Kingdom in November 1953. This was the only time in UK chart history that two versions of the same song tied at the top. The BBC banned the song because of the "religious" lyrics and Sigman then rewrote them to address the lost lover directly, under the title "Answer Me, My Love." Whitfield then re-recorded the number with the new lyrics so as to get BBC air-plays. Both his versions have appeared on CD. The best-selling.    Download this sheet!

Everything about piano sheet music Sheet music has a history of its own, dating back to the 19th century. In those days, musicians would play classic compositions using sheet music piano.
