Je connaissais la version de Dalida "Parlez-moi de lui" avec un autre texte, je la découvre par Colette Dereal et j'aime bien

[COLECCIONISTA80]

In 1970, American songwriter Sid Wayne who wrote songs for Elvis Presley recorded the Manzanero`s version and titling "it Its impossible". Yet another American composer sued Manzanero for plagiarism. Manzanero lost the lawsuit and he and Sid Wayne had to give up all the song royalties they earned. Subsequently, the American singer Perry Como, recorded the song, which was nominated for a Grammy Award. So I guess Perry should be acused of plagarism too? what a mess!

[COLECCIONISTA80]

I agree... It is a total Plagarism indeed... the Manzanero version and the French version have the same line of expression... Manzanero probably took some ideas from the original and now has been receiving big incomes now that famous singer Luis Miguel performs such song in one of his romance albums.

C'est la version définitive.
