Que Reste (2)


Remember my post 'Que Reste-t-il?' (May 16, 2017)? I always thought it was a Stacey Kent song but yesterday I heard a "cover" from 'Tess et les Moutons' on the radio where Tess told that it was a Jacques Brel song. Brel?

Back to the sources! The lyrics are written by Charles Trenet and its music by Léo Chauliac (source). First recorded by singer Lucienne Boyer in 1942: here.

P.S. Mark that the poem inside the "song" in my 2017 post is from me4you.
