'''Peter Eardley Sarstedt'''<ref name="allmusic"/> (10 December 1941 – 8 January 2017), briefly billed early in his career as '''Peter Lincoln''', was an English singer-songwriter and instrumentalist. He was the brother of musicians [[Eden Kane]] and [[Clive Sarstedt]].

Although his music was classified as pop, it generally encompassed ballads derived from traditional [[folk music]] rather than traditional [[rock and roll]]. He was best known for writing and performing the song "[[Where Do You Go To (My Lovely)?]]", which topped the [[UK Singles Chart]] in 1969. Set to a "faux European [[waltz]] tune"<ref name="allmusic"/> and described as "a romantic novel in song",<ref name=scotsman/> it won an [[Ivor Novello Awards|Ivor Novello Award]]. The record remained Sarstedt's biggest hit. He had 1 more hit single and 1 hit album but despite numerous releases never had chart success again.

He continued to tour throughout the 1980s, 1990s and 2000s, mainly in 1960s revival-type shows, until his retirement in 2010 due to ill health.<ref name="bbc"/>

==Early life==
Sarstedt was born in [[New Delhi]] in 1941 as one of six siblings to Albert and Coral Sarstedt, who were civil servants in the [[British India|British administration]].<ref name="45-rpm">{{cite web | publisher = 45-rpm.org.uk|url=http://www.45-rpm.org.uk/dirp/peters.htm|title=Peter Sarstedt|access-date=28 September 2014 }}</ref><ref>{{cite web | publisher = [[British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors]] | url = http://www.basca.org.uk/members-directory/petersarstedt/ | title = Peter Sarstedt | access-date = 14 May 2012 | url-status = dead | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20140303233004/http://www.basca.org.uk/members-directory/petersarstedt/ | archive-date = 3 March 2014 | df = dmy-all }}</ref><ref name="allmusic">{{cite web|last=Unterberger|first=Richie|title=Peter Sarstedt|url=http://www.allmusic.com/artist/peter-sarstedt-mn0000843106/biography|publisher=Allmusic|access-date=20 September 2020}}</ref> Both of his parents were from England and had trained as classical musicians.<ref name="theguardian"/>
