"Toi Et Moi" duet with Charles Aznavour


Recommended Posts

Lyrically, I'm sure the French is better. But strangely I think her English recording sounds better vocally and production-wise...

 

I wonder if we'll ever again get a song that she records in both languages. PAMP and EUS were her last biggest French hits, right? They never got crossed over. I always thought it would be very strange in English to hear that melody and someone singing "talking to my dad"...I don't think the mood/sentiment translates well for that song in particular.

Yes, I definitely remember reading about it. I think it was supposed to be on Courage (back when it wasn’t ‘Courage’) along with “Recovering”.
