This song by Juliette Gréco pre-dates the decades of Oriphiel's OP by nine years, but in other respects, it ticks all the boxes that I require from French pop:

- swirling accordian
-lilting female voice
-black & white footage of a chic, attractive girl
-mentions Paree in the song, plus a couple of words like chanson that I can remember from my schoolboy French

In fact, I can even translate some of the lyrics: "I wish I had a man like Lisnaholic in my life..."
