I’m in to all music(except heavy metal music). But, I have got a special liking to old music from 50’s, 60’s and to some classical music, which others of my age would find weird. This video below features a song from Edith Piaf, L’Hymne A L’amour. I know the English version of the song but when I came to France I found out that it was originally an Edith Piaf’s.
The guy (Gregory Lemarchal) who sings in the video, unfortunately, passed away few months ago. He had a terminal illness. This video was one of his performances in a singing contest he joined in here in France where he was hailed as the grand winner. Back in Portugal, I used to watch a French MV Channel and his music videos would be played over and over again.
I have got so many versions of this song downloaded on my computer. However, it's this one I particularly like the most. I love this song before but I love it even more now after hearing this rendition. The girl is equally good. (Volume would usually be raised even more at 2min.02 sec part)
After hearing the song, don't you wish you understand French? - I do :D
