courir dans les tournesols

Bonjour! Je m'appelle Mechaieh. This is where I dork around about pop songs, slang, and other diversions. I'm neither particularly functional nor fluent in French, other than owning a decent dictionary, so suggestions, corrections, and amplifications are most welcome.

The title means "Running Around in the Sunflowers" (song by Marc Lavoine).

Jean Ferrat m'ensorcelle

A power blip erased the long entry I'd been writing. Here's the nutshell version:

Que serais-je sans toi - video clip, Les Enfoirés 2008

Que serais-je sans toi - video clip, Jean Ferrat 1966

Interesting guy, Ferrat (wiki entry). He also wrote "Aimer à perdre la raison" (a song les Les Enfoirés have incorporated into their show at least twice), as well as a rather less fluffy chanson des tournesols. ("Your sunflowers are drooping as they doze in their prison of money...")

My local library has nothing by him or Louis Aragon, so that's two more names for the "someday" list.
