@Claudus1943, you write "at the age of 17, she was too old to sing it" - Gall's "enfant" problem was soon removed forever after her performance in "Pauvre Lola"!

[Claudus1943]

@neohephaestus Very just!

Claudia1943...he's not a real photographer. He is an actor in a music video. Deleting his dropping of a piece of paper on the ground because you and a few others feel he's not "respectful of nature" is wrong. It was 1964 and people back then really didn't appreciate nature the way we do now. Censoring a historical document, like this video to fit society's current attitudes and beliefs is wrong. If so, what should we censor out next? BTW...I appreciate your posting these videos...thanks!

Odd how the French man thinks nothing of throwing the refuse from the photo on the ground.

[Claudus1943]

@zeero62 It is exact ! I was made the same reflection. This gesture is not respectful of the nature. I hope that a person of the film unit will have collected the paper.

On my new restoration of this video, I deleted this part.

[zeero62]

@Claudus1943 But I'm glad you kept it here. Its interesting to see the commercial part of the video just to see how far we've come in photography since then and in our attitudes towards littering.

[Markthompson123]

@zeero62 i mean he did it pretty smoothy

[Kuekator]

Marvellous! Great! Greets from Freiburg princess-estefania . com !

@odavid45 Beautiful France Gall! An angel face and an angel voice! Thanks my angel! :-)

[Lejnus]

why do i come to think of Oggy and the Cockroaches?

[Claudus1943]

@Lejnus Certainly because you look too much at the TV.

[Lejnus]

@Claudus1943 more likely i took my french classes with this song being one of my home works as Oggy and the cockroaches was aired during breakfast every day.

[quillendaniel]

Super acoustics!

[martel732]

Back when everything from France (nation, not singer) was so cool. Where is my beret?

[35quique]

Qui ne sais pas poser cette question' combien de temps sans ecouter cette chanson.merci.

[ulefab]

Une question Claude,ne serait-ce pas Marlene Jobert au debut de la video? On a du mal a discerner mais la voix? Oui c'est amusant que cette chanson qu'elle deteste a sans doute ete sa plus grosse vente de sa carriere pre-Berger; Ma mere me la fredonnait quand j'etais enfant et ce n'est qu'a l'adolescence que j'ai decouvert que France en etait l'interprete. Il faut dire qu'il y a un monde avec ses chansons d'apres 74!

[Claudus1943]

@ulefab

Non, ce n'est pas Marlène Jobert, France était accompagnée par la chorale "Les lutins". D'ailleurs, au dos du 45t, France avait fait plusieurs dessins amusants de la séance d'enregistrement : d'elle au micro, des enfants de la chorale et d'Alain Goraguer.

Oui, son répertoire était très varié et ses chansons se ressemblaient peu. Je regrette qu'elle n'ai pas fait d'avantage de chansons "jazzy" car elle y excellait.

[Fnatman]

I love this song and video, never understood why France regretted it. She and her follow girls are wonderful. Even good old Mr Charlemagne is, if not wonderful, then certainly funny :)

[Claudus1943]

@Fnatman

France thought that it was a children's song and that at the age of 17, she was too old to sing it. She was afraid that her friends laugh at her.

oh, thanks :)
