questionoftheday asks: What songs do you think people remember you by?

My answer: I am constantly singing the French chorus from Pink Wine by St. Paul de Vence! I'm sure it's terribly annoying, since I've been doing it for quite some time.

"St. Paul de Vence - "Pink Wine"" (Watch on YouTube)

The song is about the singer's own grandfather, who grew up in France during German occupation. The part that I incessantly repeat reads as such:

Vous n'aurez jamais ma chanson
Vous marcherez un long chemin de silence
Mon pays ma donne cette chanson
Toujours je chanterai, vous salauds!

Roughly translated, it means:

You will never take my song
You will march a long path in silence
My country gave me this song
And I will always sing, you bastards!

You should give it a listen--it's a very poignant song, and very atmospheric. Plus, there's a very fun part at the end of the song where you get to shout VOUS SALAUDS at the top of your lungs and hold it for a very long time.
