Undoubtedly awful, but can you recognise the "singer".
Spoiler: show
The soundtrack features two songs in English, "Do You Want to Marry Me?" and "I Must Tell You Why", with music by Michel Magne and vocals sung by David Gilmour, working as a session musician with his band Jokers Wild, before he joined Pink Floyd.[

In the late sixties/early seventies I worked in a photostudio where we had a Garrard record player that had to have a rubber on the headsheel to keep the stylus in the groove. It was fed through a Philips 2½W valve amplifier and into some home made speakers, all very professional.
We had two LPs, the one presented here and Country Joe & The Fish "Here We Go Again" (The Fish was the bass player).
Management replaced the stereo with one for each studio, one for the graphics department and one for the support area (labs). I inherited the original fine piece of equipment and the two LPs.
The amp had to be used with the cover off so that the valve for the left channel could be flicked with a finger to start it.
I still have those original LPs and they do get dragged out and listened to reasonably often although the Garrard/Philips combination has been replaced with a Sonab record deck, a Sonab R-4000 receiver and a pair of Sonab OA5 speakers, all almost as old as the LPs.

You don't need to click the acceptance thingy, it will just play after about fifteen seconds.

The singer, with a somewhat child-like voice is Anisette, who although she looks black is actually from Greenland Inuit extraction (and therefore a Danish citizen) The band is Danish and still going.

Walking around Tesco early on Tuesday morning I caught a serious ear worm from a vaguely familiar track playing on the store PA system - made a nice change from Christmas stuff!

It got me so much I had to identify it as I absolutely love it... I had to think hard but finally got it from the band name having a tenuous relationship to units of temperature...



I then put it in one of my Amazon playlists to enjoy when out running...

A bit about the band here... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M%C3%BCnc ... eit_(band)

I've now discovered - via Amazon music - a lot of their other material... A bit ELO'ish in a German sort of way...

And just in case you don't believe me here's Rick Beato's summary:
