Eine Insel für zwei is the sixth German single recorded by U. S. entertainer Connie Francis.

The song on the B-Side was "Das ist zuviel", a German coverversion of Francis' U. S. Hit "Too Many Rules", which she also recorded in

  • French (as Faut pas faire, ça)
  • Italian (as Mary Lou, a. k. a. E' Mary Lou)
  • Japanese (as Too Many Rules [the original English title was kept])
  • Portuguese (as Ordens demais)
  • Spanish (as Tanto Control)

Eine Insel für zwei peaked at # 7 of the German charts.[3]

One thought on “Cannabaceae

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
