My French is not good enough to catch every nuance but It seems to me that this is a very great . . . and bitter song. Mireille operates at a disadvantage in one respect. Few song writers write songs worthy of her formidable talents. Only the very best music and lyrics allow her to give a song her complete strength. I think she overpowers some songs that are not worthy of her. Still, many of her lighter pieces are very charming. I like her in songs like this that show her great dramatic gifts.

La musique de cette chanson a été écrite par Janis Ian, dont le nom également est « At Seventeen » (à dix-sept ans). Mais les paroles de Mireille sont tout à fait différents que les paroles de Janis. Néanmoins, les deux chansons bien racontent les crises et les ennuis de l’adolescence. Les deux me rappellent un peu de la chanson « Tous Les Garçons Et Les Filles » par Françoise Hardy, et aussi bien comme mon ans d'adolescence a l'epoque :-)

Not seventeen, though, I think. She had a different hairstyle then.

What a beautiful photo of the magnificent Mimi!

It is interesting to compare the two ladies who sit at the summit of French popular song, Mireille Mathieu and Edith Piaf. I think Mireille has an unsurpassed vocal instrument and Edith has an unsurpassed emotional instrument. It is wonderful to listen to both.

Don't be ridiculous, she did not butcher this song or any other songs that other artists did before her or after her for that matter. A song is made to be sung, and every performer will add his own touch to it. She has a voice that carries emotion like no other, and that, my dear, is Mireille.

She looks so beautiful in this pic.

she has allways been beautiful. She is a very beautiful woman.

Oh my God !!! She's AWFUL I didn't know she butchered this song. JANIS IAN KNOCK HER BACK. The French singer Claude François covered it too and it's horrible too.
