For the last few weeks, I listened obsessively to Broadway tunes, mostly Sondheim. But this week I’m hooked on French singers, and that got me searching YouTube for some visuals to go with the sound.
- Yves Montand C’est si bon (Could he be any more adorable?)
- Yes, he could be. (This is one of the best arguments for time travel I have ever seen.)
- Charles Aznavour singing She.
- Jacques Brel singing Ne me quitte pas. (Wonderful to see him. but you also have to check out Nina Simone’s version. It will break your heart.)
- Edith Piaf singing Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien.
And when I’m wiped out and depressed from all that Gallic emoting, here’s the antidote.
