Billy Joel - C'etait Toi (You Were the One) : Multilingual Lyrics

[oldiesbooksmusiclove]

So. . . in my french class, our homework is to find words that have [insert phonic we've learened here] in them, and most of my words have come from this song. Thanks to my teacher, I can sing along with the whole thing! P.S. I'm in elem. school, and I love BJ and EJ and Elvis!

I was nineteen years of age when this came out. He's a great muso, but though French is apparently romantic, I would learn German fluently before bothering with French.

I was literally 6 years old when this was the 1 0f 2 8 tracks...engraved in my soul

[ForeverLove6354]

[kinegorouzaemon]

俺もこの「愛の面影」大好きでしたし、今も大好きです。

「セテ　トワ」はフランス語？？？学がないもので。。(-_-;)

[LadyGreenEyes964]

LOVE this one!

[shielakay]

have always loved this one. one of the main reasons I chose to take french in high school.

When performing this song in France the representative from CBS thought he was singing in Polish!

[jmferris1138]

quiet and thoughtful, but still moving.

Bravo Billy Joel!

[Palomitz]

Billy's more obscure songs are actually one of my favorites, and this one is no exception. Can't understand why Billy dislikes this one so much, has a great melody and the French part makes it sexier. This song transports me to 1980.

[mmpolo1964]

1980 WAS A GOOD YEAR FOR ME 2 french is a sexy language.

[RhodesidesReviews]

@Palomitz That french verse is one of the most beautiful things ive ever heard

[kinegorouzaemon]

この日本訳多分、「愛の面影」だったような・・・

25年前くらいの曲かな。大好きな曲でした。今ももちろん大好き­ですがね。
