I can't agree more.
I recently asked some students who for them represented French  
songwriters best,
  and who they would recommend to other foreign students; they  
unanimously came up with Brassens.
Even though as I told them it was their "parents' choice" they  
insisted that Brassens's careful poetic crafmanship was and still is  
what they consider best.
Each of the songs is a slice of life in itself, piercing with a very  
human eye through people's souls.

The song sounds innocent but goes deep into humanity well beyond the  
biases and prejudices of our times.

Keep the good work coming :-)
Amiti?s
Philippe
