Marie France visite Bardot, 2009
Written by Pierre Cour and Carlos Imperial, 1969
This song is adapted from a Portuguese song and first recorded in 1969; I haven't heard the Bardot version. France is a transgender singer who started recording in the 1970s. This song is a burst of campy glamour and cheeky attitude. Her delivery, both sung and spoken, is playful and assertive, riding the bouncy, retro-pop arrangement with cabaret flair and knowing charm.
