Gavin Atkin Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 (edited) The classic 1950 hit for Edith Piaf, with lyrics by Piaf and the music by Marguerite Monnot, sung here by Julie Atkin with my Jeffries duet concertina. She is said to have written if for her lover, French boxer, Marcel Cerdan, who was killed in an air crash in October 1949. She recorded the song the following May. https://youtu.be/dW1ibKU8xco Gavin Edited February 6, 2021 by Gavin Atkin 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregor Markič Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Well, my rendition leaves of course much to be desired, but you will pardon my obnoxiousness. The more am I obnoxious, the more beautiful your singing and playing 😀. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
