I'm not really a great fan of French music other than accordion music. However, here is a lovely song, from 1994, sung by Enzo Enzo (neé Korin Ternovtzeff). Enjoy.

Optimistic Cro!
The difference between an optimist and a pessimist, is that the optimist enjoys himself whilst waiting for the inevitable! I AM that optimist!

About Me
- Cro Magnon
- I was born just south of London, but for the past 50 years I've lived in S W France. I am a painter by profession, and writer by desire. Lady Magnon and I live between an ancient cottage in a tiny village in perfectly tranquil French countryside, and a bijou townhouse in Brighton UK. In France we have plenty of fruit trees, all situated amongst a view that takes the breath away, in the UK we have a handkerchief sized patio. We also have a Border Collie called Billy. I try to treat our planet with respect, and encourage others to do likewise (without preaching). Contentment is a glass of red, a plate of charcuterie, and a slice of good country bread. Perfect!
Thank you Cro, a pleasant way to start the morning.
ReplyDeleteNice song, nice voice. A tonic for all.
DeleteI realise that some of your blog visitors are not fluent in French so I have roughly translated the opening section for them:-
ReplyDeleteI woke up with a raging hangover
So I had a cigarette and a jug of water
Then I went down to the supermarket
To buy some household essentials
I got a toilet duck
And an XL canister of air freshener
Plus a twelve pack of quilted toilet paper
Before catching the Number 82 back home
Spot on YP! Such a romantic song.
DeleteFunny
DeleteYP's translation helped.
ReplyDeleteHis A Level French helped!
DeleteYP's translation had me in fits - the first belly laugh of the day.
ReplyDeleteYou can always rely on YP.
DeleteI like a bit of French music ...... Edith Piaf and, look up Emma Kok & André Rieu version of Voila if you have a spare moment ..... absolutely tear jerking { for me anyway ! } She is 16 and has gastroparesis but doesn't let it stop her ..... she has the audience in tears. XXXX
ReplyDeleteI do know who you mean. She has a huge following here; as does Rieu.
DeleteI couldn’t be more French if it tried
ReplyDeleteIt's one of my all time favourite French songs.
