Edith Piaf J'ai Q'ua l'Regarder English & French Subtitles
3 months ago
Some rhymed couplets, a joyous refrain, it's 1943 in Paris and Edith Piaf is singing of her love in this classic chanson, words by Edith Piaf, music by Alèc Siniavine: It's a year before she met singer/actor Yves Montand, but he dominates this video because his pictures most suit the romantic text. Others in her list of lovers, Greek singer/songwriter Georges Moustaki ("Milord"), boxing champion Marcel Cerdan, American actor Eddie Constantine, French actors Jacques Pills and Paul Meurisse, French singer/songwriter Henri Contet, ("Padam, Padam")and hairdresser/singer Theo Sarapo. Charles Aznavour makes an appearance but was reported not to be serious lover.
