"J'avais Rêvé D'une Autre Vie" by Rose Laurens - 1980 ( I Dreamed A Dream Original Version)

Wow, this is beautiful. Since I'm not French I couldn't understand the words, but the emotion in her voice is stunning. I translated the lyrics in the dooblydoo and they are so different from the English ones. I feel like they emphasize different things and the English one is more subtle, but I like the French ones much better.

How do you say syphilis in French?

@rocke4444 it's the same. U Can't catch it from Fantine by listening to her singing. Don't worry :)

Susan Boyle is now the person I most associate this song with! and is a very beautiful song!

What could I expect! I have most of Rose's LP's and CD's. Her voice is unbeatable, and I never heard this rendition. It is as beautiful as she is, so sad she no longer performs. ):

J'avais 22 ans quand ROSE LAURENS a interprété cette magnifique chanson....et 30 ans plus tard l'émotion est toujours là avec en plus la certitude......... que la vie est rarement celle dont on rêvait....
