my favorite ‘60s french pop singer. i found out about her at my high school job, but i didn’t become as much as a fan as i am now until college. i absolutely love this song. her music just makes everything feel so romantic and cinematic. also i am just enamored with the album artwork. the whole album is amazing, definitely worth the listen.
Iconic.
This song -- her best known, and featured in my EP book "An Ideal For Living" -- is almost proto-emo in its articulation of heartache and existential loneliness.
Loose translation from French:
"My days like my nights
Are in all alike situations
Without joys and full of problems
No one whispers "I love you" in my ear"
Au revoir mon cher François, que ta musique t'emporte toujours vers le ciel.
