1969 single by a band who later became Gypsy (UK). Nice, urgent (almost frantic), has a kinda freakbeat evolving into psychedelic feel (not unlike the heavier tunes by Bulldog Breed). Someone else has posted this already, I'm just doing another to hopefully have the sound come out a bit louder/clearer. Though you never can tell with Youtube.
Henry Legay sings "Je crois encore entendre" from Les Pecheurs de Perles by Georges Bizet Orchestre du Théatre National de l'Opéra Comique André Cluytens, conductor VI.1954

Wandering through the streets of Paris, we came across this unusually unique bakery, world famous for selling some slightly different baguettes. Legay Choc in the Marais sees visitors from all over the world entering its doors to sample its incredible genital shaped foodstuffs. And yeah, they're rather amusing... ===== A look at some of the unique, crazy, weird and just head scratching experiences on my travels around the globe, in a very dodgy bunch of videos entitled "Only In". It's an on-the-go YouTube series that's created with my only little point and shoot camera, my iPad and Coke Zero and Crispy Cremes in a dodgy hostel in the cheap part of town, or an airport terminal if I'm lucky.
Must have been the devil who changed my mind
Must have been the wind blowing not me crying
Half the joy of icaving was the space I left behind
Now I'm back, angelheaded holloweyed
Placed myself at the eye of the storm
Just didn't see the signpost to scorn
The blue sky wrinkled through my tears
Them darkness grounded all my fears
I gave him my sugar; he switched it for salt
Should have seem him coming that's always my fault
Rocks for my pillow and sand for my bed
For better or worse I left him for dead
But two rivers to each other run
Words that shook me like the kick of a gun
Had something in my heart ain't got no name
Turned out he left the same
Ain't it lonesome, ain't it sad
I was the only happiness he ever had
By indian river the vows were said
In a red devil's dress I was wed
Cat cat bone, cat cat cat bone x8
Bitch baby round lady
Came to me in a dream
Them lightning struck and thunder roared
And nothing was as it seemed
A two-headed doctor walked on the water
And buried a lemon outside my door
He turned and laughed, threw up his hands
When I asked him what it was for
He sang 'ships in the ocean rocks in the sea
Blond-headed woman made a fool outta me'
Them everything went crazy
My shoes filled with blood
The water rose the wind did howl
The river looked ready to flood
I left my man asleep to drown
And ran without looking back around
Ring the bells of mercy
Send the sinnerman home
The keys to the kingdom are lost and gone
And I'm left to die alone
All these irls grown old now
All that long hair in the grave
Realize what's done is done
It's far too late to be saved
Yeah cat cat cat x3
