Marianne Faithfull

And you'll see me smiling as I dunk the glasses, and you'll say, what's she got to smile at for? And the ship, eight sails shining, fifty-five cannons wide, sir, Wait there at the key.

And he loved Cole Porter and he loved all sorts of things like that.

She was very young, of course. And she was only 24 when Mr. Hitler marched into Vienna in the Anschluss. But she was a dancer in Berlin.
