| SophiaCorso (Germany) | Posted: Nov 16, 2012 - 12:41 I like this song and I miss this classical Yann Tiersen. The new songs are too much experimental! Till the album "Dust Lane" I have all :-) And don't forget the soundtrack from "Amelie From Montamarte) |

| ddrain (France) | Posted: Mar 28, 2012 - 03:26 Effectivement, c'est la Boulange... Diminutif de Boulangerie ... quand on est pressé. Cela évoque pour moi un enfant courant, une baguette sous le bras, la monnaie dans son poing fermé, trottoirs de Paris, gekkosan wrote:
That's not how Monsieur Tiersen chose to write it on his album's cover. He ought to know why, and what he means by that. |

| ScottFromWyoming (Powell) | Posted: Dec 23, 2011 - 17:56 Hard to believe there's so much negativity in the comments for this. It's harmless but nice and kind of interesting. I always like having it come on. |
| Geecheeboy (under a crescent moon and palmetto tree) | Posted: Aug 31, 2011 - 09:34 The French made the USA possible. That doesn't mean I like this little number. |

But that doesn't make the French castle scene in Monty Python and the Holy Grail any less funny. Featuring John Cleese with his aht-rage-ous French accent.

Americans like to think that every other country is inferior to ours. However, when any other country is bold enough to feel the same way...they are snobs. |

| helgigermany (Germany) | Posted: Sep 18, 2010 - 13:57 I am not a fan of soundtrack music, because mostly the music works not very good without the movie!! |

| JamesB (Coastal Carolina) | Posted: Aug 05, 2010 - 05:02 Could this really be Yann-i? Boring, repetitive, derivative. |
| Cynaera (South of Neanderthal) | Posted: Jul 16, 2010 - 15:08 Extraordinary musicianship! Lots of talent here - and I love the song because it's daring. The music sounds much older than it actually is. My dad would have loved this piece... |
| FlatCat (Chicago) | Posted: Jul 16, 2010 - 15:02 Finally saw Amelie to find out what everyone is raving about. A lovely movie. Still hate this music. |

Those guys are already so energetically enthusiastic that any kind of "forced induction", so to speak, would bring listeners to their knees, begging for mercy. Ever heard them play anything really off the wall? George Crumbs' Black Angels perhaps?  Or Robert Crumb's RC Cola? |
