In this episode, we’ll be listing to the song ‘Sur ma Vie’ by Charles Aznavour, without a doubt the most famous French singer who ever lived. I am very fond of his voice with the little tremolo, and also of the fact that many of his songs are like very touching short stories. This song tells of a man who has vowed to always love a woman. He is waiting for her in the church but she does not show up. He is heartbroken, but vows he will always love her, regardless of the pain she has caused him. 

Before listening to this podcast and my tips about the words to learn, please direct yourself to this article with a Youtube-video of this episode’s song, the lyrics in French and a translation in English. If you listen to the song a couple of times while reading the lyrics, you’ll know what I’m talking about and you’ll get a feeling for the pronunciation. Enjoy!
