Or at least, I knew the melody - of course - but never knew it was him and that this was the title of the tune V8stangman should know this, as I found this while listening to my dad's last.fm channel lol. Age mates eh <A BORDER="0" HREF="http://www.supercars.net/PitLane?displayFAQ=y"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="pitlane/emoticons/tongue.gif"></A> (my dad being from 1959) For those raised with sub 2 minute pop songs on the radio, skip to 1:24 for the trademark melody lol
It's still not on the same level as my favourite chansonneur (sp) though: Jacques Brel. Once Brel claimed that Dutch is not a language, but a cold. Here you can see him performing "Amsterdam", died too young <A BORDER="0" HREF="http://www.supercars.net/PitLane?displayFAQ=y"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="pitlane/emoticons/sad.gif"></A>
Charles was amazing, no doubt. As in, top 10 French (language) singer, but concerning performance/PASSION, he's not a whole lot compared to Brel or Piaf. I'll link to the latter, or no, a part of a movie that's supposed to resemble her, because this is #$%#ing awesome:
I've seen enough laughable French rap music not to be so sure <A BORDER="0" HREF="http://www.supercars.net/PitLane?displayFAQ=y"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="pitlane/emoticons/wink.gif"></A>
I knew when I saw you linking to something that it would be this song. One of his best works for sure.
Need your help guys. I'm looking for an french song called "L'amour" I think it was Charles Aznavour that recorded it, But I can't find it.
