What song are you listening to?

OMG, what a great piece, either we're twins or your stalking me 🤣 I play this on my entertainment unit grom time to time.

Edith Piaf - dedicated her recording of the song to the French Foreign Legion.

At the time of the recording, France was engaged in a military conflict, the Algerian War (1954--1962), and the 1st REP (1st Foreign Parachute Regiment) — which backed a temporary putsch of 1961 by the French military against the civilian leadership of Algeria — adopted the song when their resistance was broken. The leadership of the Regiment was arrested and tried but the non-commissioned officers, corporals and Legionnaires were assigned to other Foreign Legion formations. They left the barracks singing the song, which has now become part of the French Foreign Legion heritage and is sung when they are on parade.

If you like some french classics you won't find a song which sounds more passionate, soulful, sad and sincere than this classic from the great Brel.

For those who don't speak french, it's about a man begging for his partner not to leave him.

I have requested my son to play this at my funeral with "Always look at the bright side of life" by Monty Python

Paul McDermott, Kids today probably have no idea who this genius is. The DAAS - Big Gig Days to Good New Week. Very underrated in Aussie pop culture.
