Bruce Daigrepont: Acadie À La Louisiane (Acadia To Louisiana)

The best Cajun song ever! In my opinion, this should be the Cajun anthem. Tells a story about Cajun history - British expulsion of the Acadians (Le Grand Dérangement) and their arrival in Louisiana, where they have built a new home and remained until this day.
Song is performed by Bruce Daigrepont. From the album "Coeur Des Cajuns".

I'm a Cajun myself my family name is Bergeron my mother was a Thibodeaux. I personally think this should be OUR National Anthem

@blazinkccajun thats right, but its not a bastards race, and i agree, cajun is not cuz you live there, cajun, acadians, or alot others called, are in your veign! im proud to be one of them

[falouchelo]

we say LA GRANDE DEPORTATION, NOT LE GRAND DERENGEMENT, its not the british expulsion, its french expulsion around the world, louisiana, new zealand, england, ....

[blazinkccajun]

@OBSysteme i beg to differ that we are a bastard race. Idk what you are and nor do i care, but think before you call a people a bastard race. And i dont think just cause simeone lives in LA in acadiana that makes them cajun. If u have acadien blood than your cajun.
