Ça vaut le coup d'oeil

In December when the wind is blowing
And the snow is on the Bois d'Issy
Sunshine still is in the golden glasses
Marguerite drink the sun with me
You can keep your Maurice Chevaliers and your Jean-Claude Pascals and your, er... Marcel Duchamps (I'm running out of Frenchmen. I'd mention Frédéric Diefenthal, only I want to keep him), it's Georges Guétary that makes me want to pick up French again.

*Sigh*
Each time I discover movies and artists and whatever pretty much by accident, I always think how impossibly much good music and movies there must be in the world that I'll never hear of.
When I first heard Guétary singing I thought that timbre-y stuff was so annoying. Luckily, with my Gene Kelly obsession all those years ago I watched 'An American in Paris' five billion times and it grew on me.
OMG DOMINO MASK AND TUXEDO. Pardon me while I swoon a bit.
