• Et si je revenais à de vieilles amours, hein ?

    Trois versions de la même :
    l'originale (1964) par Chuck Berry,
    une des nombreuse reprises par Emmylou Harris,
    et bien sûr la dernière dont je vous laisse la découverte :

     

    (Comment ? C'est trop court ? Ben faut acheter le DVD aussi... Parce que, hein, on aura beau dire si vous connaissez un film aussi "simple" avec un un "schéma narratif" aussi tordu, faites moi signe).

     

    Et comme je suis un gars sympa, je vous mets même les paroles :


    It was a teenage wedding
    And the old folks wished them well
    You could see that Pierre
    Did truly love the mademoiselle
    And now the young monsieur and madame
    Have rung the chapel bell
    "C'est la vie", say the old folks
    It goes to slow you never can tell

    They furnished off an apartment
    With a two room Roebuck sale
    The coolerator was crammed
    With T.V. dimmers and ginger ale
    But when Pierre found work
    The little money comin' worked out well
    "C'est la vie", say the old folks
    It goes to show you never can tell

    They had a hi-fi phono
    Boy did they let it blast
    Seven hundred little records
    All rockin' rhythm and jazz
    But when the sun went down
    The rapid tempo of the music fell
    "C'est la vie", say the old folks
    It goes to show you never can tell

    (Instrumental)

    They bought a souped-up jitney
    T'was a cherry-red fifty nine
    They drove it down to New Orleans
    To celebrate their anniversary
    It was there that Pierre
    Was wedded to the lovely mademoiselle
    "C'est la vie", say the old folks
    It goes to show you never can tell

    It was a teenage wedding
    And the old folks wished them well
    You could see that Pierre
    Did truly love the mademoiselle
    And now the young monsieur and madame
    Have rung the chapel bell
    "C'est la vie", say the old folks
    It goes to slow you never can tell

    "C'est la vie", say the old folks
    It goes to slow you never can tell
    "C'est la vie", say the old folks
    It goes to slow you never can tell
