...Which is roughly translated from the old Auvergne song, "L'Aio de Rotso."
I first heard this in Kiri Te Kanawa's delightful album "Chants d'Auvergne." The CD conveniently comes with not only the lyrics, but an English translation of them. These old pastoral-society folksongs just show how universal ideas can be!
I didn't find a video of HER singing the song -- second-best is the best I can share with you. Inspired by the lowcarbdiabetic team and their "Saturday music night" I offer you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tz8f8NpHPvY
Nice one Tess
ReplyDeleteGreat music, but wasted on Graham I'm afraid. If it ain't got drums and a bass player he can't handle it.

When I saw the title heading I thought WHAT !!

ReplyDeleteWasted on you too Eddie your tone deaf, it's only at Jans behest that you post anything of worth to music lovers.
Thanks to Jan I know all about your infatuation with the Osmonds and your latest love Miley Cyrus, I've heard that you've taken up twerking not a pretty sight according to Jan.
Apologies Tess but I could not let the old farts comment go unanswered.
Regards
Graham
Lol -- go right ahead, enjoy your sparring match!
