C'est toute mon enfance!
Apr. 10th, 2011 12:41 pmLe Grand Echiquier de Jacques Chancel, Georges Brassens, Maxime Le Forestier, Lino Ventura!
Here's the description posted with the vid and the lyrics in French are behind the cut (there are subtitles in English on the video).
A love poem to the beautiful women who got away away written by an obscure poet, Antoine Pol, set to music and performed by the great Georges Brassens at a TV show aired May 31,1979 dedicated to the film actor Lino Ventura. Lino requested this song from Brassens, and he sings it in duet with Maxime LeForestier. Sadly, Antoine Pol died a week before meeting Brassens, which caused him great regret. Many thanks to philipchek of YouTube and of Paris for turning me on to this song, providing a line by line translation, background information and video selection . Without his help, this song might never have reached the anglophone world
