I am impressed Vietnamese people can speak good French before the fall of Saigon 1975. I finished High school with the communist Vietnam education, I passed the final high school exam and scored 80 in French and couldn't say how are you in French.
I believe her version is the one I first heard it. Brings back many good memories, thanks to my best friend and foster brother who are Vietnamese. Playing Vietnamese French music in the middle of Texas!
Hi, her French is impeccable, sounds like international or higher education French. I did not know about this singer. Thank you for sharing this version with the community. I am impressed by her voice and also by the orchestra that supports her signing.
@hivelocity100 - Thank you for visisting my page and listening to Thanh Lan's songs. Yes, I agree. Listening to Thanh Lan's songs does bring back a lot of memories. Enjoy!
her french is actually pretty good-- back in the day, most vietnamese knew how to speak french, i would know this since most of my family is vietnamese and they speak pretty fluently....this is a good cover. lovely.
Appreciating this heavy-accent version because of personal and cultural preference is quite comprehensible; and Im certain that this singer was quite a star in Vietnam, but placing her on the same list with Sylvie Vartan is rather a controversial statement.
@TheMiddleLinebacker Yes, we all know that Sylvie was Bulgary born. But she, SV, grew up in France. Other singer, Thanh Lan, she lives almost 40 years in Vietnam; and the weather and water that local people consume may have had effect on their Vocal.
But let not compare star to star. Each has his/her own talent and style. Best regards, ST
Thanh Lan's French accent wasn't heavy at all. Are you a native-French speaker? I don't think that kieudat's comment was insulting Sylvie Vartan. Both singers' voices were suitable for their time. That sort of sound was desired, and therefore both singers were popular. Vietnamese is a rich and poetic language. What singer would not appreciate that? Your opinion does not reflect that of Sylvie's.
Nobody said anything about Kieudat's comments being insulting; I said they are controversial. As for my opinions, they don't have to reflect anyone's on this planet, including Sylvie's.
I just simply believe that Sylvie is, by far, a more talented singer. You should not be offended by my genuin believe.
I'm not at all offended. You seem to be a bit defensive, however. One should not post a biased opinion. You don't seem to appreciate the Vietnamese language.
Sorry I don't know. I don't think they reprint her pre75 songs since it may not be a big market waiting .. hehe. Will try to post a few more for you , whenever I have time.
Nói sao thì nói .. Nghe những giòng nhạc trước 75 Nhạc Việt cũng như Ngoại Quốc dịch việt và Hải Ngoại (cho đến giữa thập niên 90 ) là hay nhất ...Nhạc bây giờ , nhất là giòng nhạc trẻ từ trong nước chỉ ngồi nghe mà lắc đầu thôi ...
Il est très émouvant de savoir que ma chanson préférée à été reprise à l'autre bout du Monde dans une langue que je ne connais pas.

Her voice is not unlike Teresa Teng's. This is a song Teresa Teng could've sung had she been into French.

FYI, French is not Sylvie's native language. No offense, but I don't think Sylvie would have admired the sound of Vietnamese.

And you know that Sylvie "would not have admired the sound of Vietnamese" because?........you know her personally and she told you that?
