I knew that this song was depressing even before I knew what it was about. Poor Fran�oise just can't find a boy! I've seen the Scopitone for this, and I really doubt that she was having trouble finding dates, but �est-la-vie, right? Anyhow, it's an absolutely beautiful ballad.

i'm unsure about the year this was recorded but it's a great french pop song. apparently, france is singing about lsd. 'tee-nie wee-nie bopp-ie'is rather infectious.
26 Apr 01 ·tinks: Yeah, I love this track. It was written by Serge Gainsbourg and recorded in 1967. It was released on the "1968" LP, which is available on CD as a French import. Also includes the great song "Made in France". 02 May 01 ·tinks: i should also mention that the song isn't really about lsd...it's not really *about* anything. kinda like seinfeld. she just mentions it in there. 28 May 01 ·daidai: yeh, i really wasn't too sure about this. i was merely going off of information from a source. ^.^
genki japanese pop band's take on france gall's classic. reworked in japanese, hi posi takes this cover the upmost hyper level. ^.^
complete with breathy vocals, hi posi add their own personal touch to the german oldie.
the latin intro quickly gives way to the electronic beats chappie is known for. personally, i think this is the best chappie song. i wonder how much is bias towards the name.
