Had the vinyl album. Got so worn I couldn't play it any more. Had to retire it. Hearing this again, I hope I can get the album again from Amazon. Off to go find out...
That was one kick ass song in that time!(Underated), I remember when it first came out, did not get the airplay Into the night which was also great, this was the Rocker version!..Benny was Awsome!
I met Benny several years ago and as they were ending the show they had not sung "So French". We started screamming "She's So French"!!. Benny didn't look happy he threw a towel in my friends face then he said boys ya'll remember "So French" then started the song. The crowd went wild and so did we they rocked it. It was awesome and a night I will always remember
You know how I first heard this song? When the song Into The Night came out as a hit the first time around, I bought the 45 inch single and it was the song on the other side. It became my favorite of his. You made me curious, why does this song mean a lot to you?
I don't really see a connection since the song seems to be about a guy wanting to leave a woman but she's so seductive he can't come around to dumping her.
Well, there was the point, where she DID dump me, but I wasn't aware she was cheating on me. I didn't explain it properly, sorry about that. I wanted her back, but the way she threw me around was unaccpetable, and I now see that. Sorry, that was my bad for not explaining properly.
@Grodus5 Okay, she's so FRENCH? She knows that thing that makes men crazy? I think we all know what this song is REALLY about!!! I figured it meant alot to you because you had a girlfriend who did that thing that "makes you glad you were born a man".....
@SlimeTron5000 You got it Slimey. That's it! However, I can almost swear the label looked different. Then again, with so many 45's back then there's a million different labels in my brain.

Lol, I had a little incident where I believed my girlfriend was cheating on me. She apologized recently, but whats done is done.

@Jordingo I am sure he was on Polydor, but you may not have seen a 45 with small holes before.
