Claude Francois Comme D'Habitude or Frank Sinatra My Way, which is the original one?

[@manukeo5498]

The most popular french song in the World . Liberty's statue is the most famous french monument offered to America . Bonjour de France 🇨🇵

[@frederic834]

Comme d'habitude ( as per usual or as usual) is thé story of the end of love between Claude François and France Gall who was a singer also ( died in 2018) ...

[@jeeravanvachrasatian120]

C’est vraiment la vie comme d’habitude Quel triste 😞 ❤

[@clairminamichaud1080]

So sad. Si triste. I am so blessed that I am able to read both French and English. I pray that he did find love before he died. Vivre san L'Amour est dur.

Lol Claude Francois was a bad person so …

[@pedrold6461]

No doubt at all, your explanation was very interesting! Indeed!

[@MishMashh]

Thank you, we very much enjoyed doing this episode. Our host Milo is Lebanese as Paul Anka and he speaks fluent french as well which made this one even more fun to do ;)

Merci beaucoup! Nice to know a little more about the origin of the now classic My Way.

[@renaultmarseille6692]

The best for ever Claude François (Cloclo) Thanks

[@alejandrojosua3900]

Two different songs with the same rhythm, Comme D'Habitude expresses sadness, failure, and anguish (as usual) on the contrary My Way represents pride, honor, and resiliency: "Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew when I bit off more than I could chew, but through it all, when there was doubt I ate it up and spit it out, I faced it all, and I stood tall and did it my way

[@FYDILYL]

The stunning performance of My Way by Yesult 💖 at the closing Olympic ceremonies brought me here. My Way has been my life credo. Upon reading comments on various pages of Yesult's performance, I learned about Comme d`habitude. You broke it down wonderfully! I saw Yesult"s original performance on a French talent show, and she sang Comme d'habitude! I find it interesting that Yesult sang My Way at the Olympics and wonder how that came to be? It seems that it has stirred a lot of controversy. I have received an education on the history of these songs with very different meanings but both incredible! As a plus, I'm learning a bit of the beautiful French language. Thank you for your explanation! 💖💖⭐️🎶✨️

On his 1974 album "Good Times", Elvis recored another adaptation of a Claude François song : Elvis Presley - My Boy (1974) Claude François - Parce que je t'aime mon enfant (1970)

[@michaelmacaraig2841]

Claude François sang the music composer's song on the condition that he got to write the lyrics. He drew from his failed relationship. He later made his version of December 1963, Cette Année-là, where he celebrated the year he broke through to become a hit, 1962.

[@dbencic]

So glad to know it! I can totally relate to BOTH versions

3000 different versions, the song is played every minute around the world, 24/7j compesed by Claude François and Jacques Revaux, English version by Paul Anka.

My Way was written by Paul Anka as a farewell song for Frank Sinatra. He told Anka he was considering retiring from show-business at the time. I find it so interesting that Paul Anka managed to turn this very sad song when you look at the lyrics into this powerful celebration of life basically.

[@angelantonio1074]

Way way better version than my way and of course the original 👍

[@MishMashh]

Agreed, the songs original meaning is very powerfull :)

[@modernworldiscrap]

Frank was a God in our country, a bit like Elvis, but this song is so "French" in these arrangements and its lyrics that I bow to this young and lightning voice every time I listen to it! Who wants to listen to "my way" at 85, it's so depressing...

That's the meaning behind the song Comme d'Habitude by Claude François The song was about his relationship and break up with France Gall (Famous French female singer). They were together when France Gall was young (18) and wasn't famous yet. Basically she was a nobody. When she won the Eurovision song contest, the very night while the show was live, Claude François picked up his phone after the vote results and before the encore asked France Gall to choose between him and her career. He couldn't stand that she becomes famous and reached the same level as him. Basically he was giving her an ultimatum asking her to not do the encore bound to happen only a few minutes later live at the Eurovision and to kind of renounce that victory. So basically France Gall had to deal with the Eurovision victory and Claude François breaking up with her at the same time live on TV in front of hundreds of millions of people. She obviously didn't cave to that blackmail, managed to find her composure and did the encore and her victory led her to a very successful long career. Basically that's a song intended to France not to talk about his new routine but as he regretted breaking up with France. A couple of years later a famous song writer visited Claude François at his home and he complained that he never had written a song for him yet but wrote for other singers. They composed Comme d'Habitude that day. Claude François wasn't a really nice guy. I prefer that version of the song because indeed you feel all the emotion and frustration. You have the feeling that Claude is not singing but talking to you. We can connect more with the song and the lyrics add to the dramatic tone and story telling. My Way is also great and is more about a man talking about his life journey while at the end of it.

Yes, claude françois is indeed the creator of the original version of my way. He never got to sing the song with Frank Sinatra, but a virtual duet exists here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pKDUiJyCYtqasMk

The french original Is simply beautiful. My husband sang it then he sang My way. Ironically My husband was Italian but spoke perfect French and he was a great singer/entertainer. Better the Frank!

Everybody knows that the original is Comme d'habitude 😅 ans my way completely changed the meaning and made it much more trivial and stupid. Comme d'habitude is a poetry to a couple who lost the magic of their love and it's so sad. No comparison, my way is the usual American idiocy

[@emmanuelledenaclara7091]

Your interpretation is just that… it could be interpreted in a very different way. They pretend but who says they are not happy they may just pretend because they long for a life more in sync with each other. There is no mention that “he works hard” “so that she can enjoy herself “, this is pure speculation, she could very well “work hard” too. And she doesn’t go in HIS bed but THEIRS… I have heard that song all my life, growing up in France, and Claude François was a big star, with many feminine conquests, he had a vey very large feminine audience completely head over heels about him, and this song had many interpretations possible depending on who was giving it, when, and in which magazine/radio (tv: only a couple of channels then). It would be a mistake to believe your interpretation is “the one”

[@ednaatluxton4918]

The words are quite simple even cheesy. I don't understand how it became popular. The music maybe because the lyric writer wrote like a child. Simplicity, plain. My Way has a real meaning about life and is well written by someone with vast songwriting skills-Paul Anka.

[@AJos17]

It's strange because I feel the total opposite. I feel so much power and strongness through the lyrics of "comme d'habitude". As a french person, I discovered recently the "my way" version, and listening to the lyrics, I felt like it lose so much emotion, I mean it's a sad song but I had the feeling that it's just simple and naÏve words, and losing so much passion. Well maybe, it's just a feeling because of our respectives native languages.
