It's so interesting to hear the difference between music like this...and modern music. When you look at the monitor lights on your mixer...a tune like this has SO much dynamics...up and down loud and soft...new songs are just LOUD. LOL I should get on my porch and yell at some kids now I feel....

What's make it funnier in French context is part of the music is a spoof of fake Indian arrangements based on a bawdy song disparaging Brittany, adding a dissonant layer to the already ironic love message
