Now tagless for your comfort.

Sur le pont d'avignon, on y danse

Plus, it's nice to hear someone still sings these songs.

I totally love that song! My high school French teacher was awesome and would sing it! I sing it to my kids, too.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ooh, in my head I've been saying something like "lonny danse," so I'm glad to see that's close.

When I was in high school, we went to France and got a big kick out of singing that song when we visited Avignon. Dorks, even then.

I have two shallow Top Chef comments: I forgot how hot Sam is with the haircut, and Ted should get a hair consultation from Kyan or someone, because what's up with his hair?

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

you,know, kids like songs, singing, rhythm even when i 'sing'. and if you really want children's songs... they exist everywhere and changing the words is always acceptable

the waves on the beach go in and out...in and out.....

BTW, kat, you sound just like you - you just have a new subject- babies! and occupational therapist is one of those titles I have to think about.

and in exciting news about me- I had a mushroom swiss cheese scramble for dinner. yummy

megan, thanks. It's been 16 years since I was fluent (ok, maybe not fluent, but I dreamt in french and could carry on a spontaneous, if simple, conversation. Hey, why'd you move! I'd love to get my french back!) I'm all about the phonetics when I can remember it now.n Hell, any and all grammar I learned was started with french.

I loved the plucking song. Perhaps because I'm demented, but it was so enthusiastic!

Laura, this is what I am saying. Who can resist cupcake-themed shoes? Especially ones that are cheaper than two actual cupcakes?

( the other french song I recall imperfectly is Une flambeaue, Jeanette, Isabella...which ....I've no idea what that's about.)
