Marlene Dietrich Sings is a compilation album by actress and singer Marlene Dietrich, released in 1947 on Vox Records label. The album features German-language recordings originally released on Polydor masters, with piano accompaniment by Peter Kreuder. The repertoire includes cabaret-style performances associated with post-World War I Europe.

Marlene Dietrich's original 1933 Paris recordings with Peter Kreuder were reissued by Vox in 1947 as three 10-inch 78 RPM shellac singles, then as a 10" LP (1950), featuring German classics like "Jonny" and "Mein blondes Baby", plus added French tracks.

Critics acknowledged Marlene Dietrich's album as a period piece, with some praising its nostalgic value and distinctive vocal style, though often noting its dated production and limited appeal.
