Who really sings the famous version of "Danke Schoen"?!

Question: The version of "Danke Schoen" frequently attributed to Wayne Newton is pretty famous. It was used in "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" for example. However, who actually sings this song? The vocalist is clearly a woman, not Wayne (unless everybody knows something I don't...)
