    Mon cher Chico,

    It represents all of us, alone and vulnerable in this life?

  • sorry is that i didnt read all the text anyways great song

  • @fairy408

    read everything you can, whenever, wherever, even if you think it is boring, always,..

    that way you will learn many things.

    take care

  • im new to all this french stuff but my teacher told me what it means and its just an awsome beautiful song thx for uploading

  • @roadbikegarden i love the song but i think the translation u wrote i wrong thx anyways for uploading

    PD Dont be mad at me its jut an observation

  • @fairy408

    Of course I am not mad at you.

    You are absolutely correct.

    If you read again you will see that I wrote an "interpretation" not translation.

    Sometimes it is not easy to write a literal translation without it sounding ridiculous.

    Good luck with your studying.

    Julia.x.

  • thanks a lot for sending it to me! didn´t know the song before, great one!

    marcel

  • @mmarzl

    Of course you wouldn't know this song, you are far too young and most likely that your parents are too young also.

    Francoise Hardy is an iconic French singer, actress and astrologer born in 1944.

    Thank you for watching.

    Thank you SO much for this sweet comment. You are very kind.

    Julia.x.

  • Your french is amazing. And this song is sad. Boy, it is so sad. But you managed to sing it with a joyful note now and then. My compliments.

    (The sadness reminds me of Jacques Brel's "Ne me quitte pas", which, of course, is beauty really hard to endure)

  • @InuitAldebaran

    I LOVE Jacques Brel.

    My french is amazing?, thank you.x.

  • You have a nice voice and I like this interpretation, very nice :) I like this song because it's sweet but also sad.

  • Hi Mark,

    thank you so much for taking the time to comment. Isn't Mikee wonderful - such beautiful videos - providing just the right amount of distraction from my mistakes !Like you - this is it for a while - education calls.

    did you submit your essay on time?

    I will now surround myself with course work for the next 6 months.......

    love J.x.

  • I got my essays in Julia, and have gotten amazing marks back so far :)

    What are you studying?

  • Congratulations you !

    Well after spending many years on clinical studies (I specialise in caring for people with coronary heart disease, and respiratory disease), I am now learning how to teach fitness through movement and dance to older adults.

    Sound easy? - well you are well aware of the assessment process these days.

    Th A and P is straightforward but I am a hard core PT - not used to all this floating about !!!!

    .x.

  • Haha - I'm sure you can squeeze in a few press-ups or jogs round the block inbetween floating like a butterfly etc Julia :)

    And yes - the paperwork sucks!

  • Actually this is quite fun - here in the kitchen working on my 'warm up' exam piece. Going to introduce my oldies to Norah Jones.........

    .x.

  • I was just about to suggest 'firestarter' by the prodigy........:)

  • Hmmmmmm

    we'll all be old one day ....

    love and hugs

    Julia.x.

  • A friend is like a flower; a rose to be exact, or maybe like a brand new gate that never comes unlatched. A friend is like an owl, both beautiful and wise. Or perhaps a friend is like a ghost, whose spirit never dies. A friend is like a heart that goes strong until the end. Where would we be in this world if we didn't have a friend? Thank you for being a special friend who has taken the time to get to know who I am! Love and Respects always x♥x Hugs♥
  • You sound wonderful Julia ;0)

    Mark....

  • thank you sweetheart.

    I wonder if Nancy would like this?

    .x.

  • Tous les garcons et les filles,as you have not exactly translated the title,for the not so European as we might be amongst us,I will translate for you all,it means,Squabbling gargoyles in the landfill. I think,??who would believe that such a delightfully sang,and played song,could be so environmentally un friendly,I award you a staggering zillion stars,and I wish Claude a trillion more birthdays,well done to all concerned, no need to thank me for the translation,no charge, voo bon french David.

  • If I didn't love you so much I'd kick you the gargoyles my darling.

    For all the Boys and Girls who fail to accept a stupid love song when handed to them on a plate - may I refer you to the 'Beachfrontal Counselling Service', where you will be guaranteed to get what you pay for !!!!!
