Francoise Hardy - So Many Friends (l'amitié - En Anglais)

[miguel9536]

I think this is a true Hymn of the Friendship, it must be gift for the soul to share with friends no matter where they are. Thank-you very much for posting this pretty video-clip. From Argentina with Love...and Friendliness!

I just heard this song on ''Télématin'' this morning. What a wonderful discovery -- and what a beautiful song.

[124bjw]

very beautiful in English. I wish that the French lyrics existed on her French version so I could follow it more easily.

[dieMaddie71]

Thank you so much for for the lyrics!

[pawlowski2008]

Très belle version de "l'amitié" en langue anglaise. Merci pour le partage.

[LittlePigglette]

I am learning French just because of Ms. Hardy.

[hydropique]

Bonne idée ,d'ailleurs moi j'essaie d'apprendre l'anglais pour Ms Emma Peel .

[thankGodforDavidG]

wonderful lyrics but sad, very true birds will always fly away, and what is left are the memories, Miss Hardy expressed it so well !

[BUweB]

[bjohnwords]

L'HUÎTRE Le temps est comprennent très Le verre de regard un grain du sable Fonte dans un ciel en cristal Le temps ne déplace près jamais juste des passages Une perle de la sagesse aérienne J'ai compris mais n'ai jamais dit Le verre de regard juste filtré à l'aide de ce temps est précieux ainsi est vous

I like the lyric of this song. I also like FH, she is my idol. I am learning French because I admire her talents.

[zagrebhr]

Hi! I just watched the movie "Les invasions Barbares", 2004 Oscar winner for best foreign language film (Canada) and heard this beautiful song.

Thank you that allow me to enjoy this song continues.

That's a lovely song about friendship, and it sounds so warm and loving.

[anastasiapetranova]

Wow! I have never heard this song in any language other than French before. What a pleasant surprise! <3

[kyopsis]

Big surprise also for me!

[astroboy1960]

Pretty strong translation from the french. beautiful

[ketinunkantim]

Amaaaaaaaazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!

Oh, my God!!!!!

How come it took me over fourty years to hear that song .... in french!!! .... and know I find this English version? Oh, Lord, please involve this fellow who posted it here with all hapinness in the Universe. He deserves....

[cocorastuti]

You Gilian, goddess of discs, thanks for this gorgeous english version of that incredible song of my Francoise...!! (and the lovely images...)

[pd5222]

Man I love this one. Agreed with academical that her accent when singing in English is very charming. The simplicity of the music, compelling photos, loveliness of her voice, and back-to-basics subject of her song all make this a treat for the soul.

[academical]

Re the lyric, I think the last word of the second line should be "sun", not "snow". Francoise's (super-sexy) English diction is a little unclear, but in the original French the word "soleil" (sun) appears in the first verse, "neige" (snow) doesn't.

Wonderful song, anyway. I'm sure it was on a sixties vinyl version of 'Francoise Hardy - in English'.

[Amanzi1]

Thanks, I just copied the lyrics off a website. If you listen, you can indeed hear the word SUN.

The song is on the vinyl you mentioned and on a couple of others.

[124bjw]

@academical

You are absolutely correct. I just listened to this song in French and I generally need the words in front of me to understand, but I clearly heard "la neige".

[academical]

@124bjw Err... thanks? (I think). I've just listened to the French version myself, and the word "soleil" is clear, but I don't hear "neige". The first two lines are: Beaucoup de mes amis sont venus des nuages

Avec soleil et pluie comme simples bagages

[ohwhateverdammit]

Lovely song in French too

[ohwhateverdammit]

I want a poster of the picture at 1:50

[toyamac]

I LOVE THIS SONG IN ENGLISH!!!

[Amanzi1]

Yes, me too :) I think this one translates best into English. I am surprised it was never released on one of her compilation CD's

[p22adraig]

Wonderful, thanks!

[Amanzi1]

You are welcome. I hope no one is getting tired of my cheezy slide shows yet. :)

[p22adraig]

I think they're great. All I have are some slightly tatty plastic CD covers, and some stuff from Google images, and one or two video stills. You have a fine collection of vinyl records, hence the fine large cover images.

[laindav]

Oh, Amanzi1, this is very remarkable video and this is such beautiful song presented in English version. Thanks !!! I enjoyed it so very much!

[Amanzi1]

You are welcome. I hope you enjoy it. I think this one is my favourite.

[58zaccro]

Do you have "Des bottes rouges de Russie" (1969) , a very rare item on CD ?...

[Amanzi1]

Yes indeed I have. I have it on a 45. It is on the EP with "Il Voyage, l'heure Bleue and Au fil des nuits et des journees"

[Amanzi1]

I have just uploaded it. Hope you enjoy

[TrapperMilan]

@Amanzi1 Can you download the b-side of this single please? i think it was called "However Much"

[ohwhateverdammit]

I can't stop playing this one either LOL

[ohwhateverdammit]

Oh, I love this!
