Pink Martini - Autrefois

[KoalaVicky]

Nous avons ecouté cette chanson en français classe et je l'adore! Et je regrette si mon francais n'est pas bon...

[hobbes186]

@KoalaVicky good game, just "en classe de français" ton français est trés bien

It's official: China Forbes could sing the phone book - in any language - and sing it beautifully....

[selene2302]

Voz China Forbes, dirigida por el genial pianista Thomas Lauderdale, el violinista de ascendencia tanguera, Nicholas Crosa; los mil sonidos de la trompeta de Gavin Bondy; el estilo de la guitarra de Dan Fahenle; y el ritmo latino del peruano Martín Salazar en la percusión.

Tocaron a la Luz de la Luna Llena en la Costanera, gracias

Elle est pas belle la langue de molière, prévert.....?!!

[cboisvert2]

@MrEMFR la langue de prévert est d'autant plus belle que c'est une fille d'Oregon qui la chante.

... Le soir commence comme une vieille chanson, Mais je ne peux pas chanter. J'ai oublié la mélodie, Il y a quelques années. Je ne manque a personne, Mais ce n'est pas grave, J'ai déjà passé un bon moment. Un bon moment autrefois... Merci Madame & à Pink Martini. Yours faithfully...

[Salvati0n2012]

I have already spent a good moment A good moment, some other time before I think about them with so much sadness When the moon is full What parties, what dances And what songs do they enjoy [lit. spend] without me The evening starts like an old song But I am not able to sing I forgot the melody For some years now. Nobody misses me But that's not so bad I have already spent a good moment A good moment, some other time before

[Salvati0n2012]

Here's the translation Some other time before I've written sweet words To all the girls of France I hope for them to reply I've swore I'll be happy Before the end of the year I've written sweet words To all the girls of France Every day and every night But at the end of the year I am still Alone in my bed Nobody misses me But that's not so bad

[mikadospike]

Well dumbodrummer1, if I thawt u kuld reed I mite tri dat "tranlation". Fail.

[mikadospike]

If people knew the lyrics this song would be way more popular...it hasn't gotten the respect it deserves.

[damodrummer1]

So Mr/Mss by-lingual why not post us frenchless ones a tranlation?

[Meekseek]

@mikadospikeMost of us don't need to understand the lyrics to love music.

They're actually very popular, just not {mainstream} popular yet, in 2008 the only PM song in youtube seem to be eugene now, they're all popping in...

[MrDiamondman1]

Very sensuous and brings back wonderful memories of my time in Paris! WOW!!!

[royerfa37]

Ah ! Single life!

[7855waldo]

[innings08]

My forever song..sure thing!!

[OrangeHat101]

i swear, this is one of my all time favorite songs.

the beginning with the drum and the piano gets me every time. I wish i had the music for this so i could learn the piano.
