Amongst them some oft he greatest songwriters of our time floated through Âé¶¹APP leaving a trail of song lyrics close behind. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Ella Fitzgerald, Serge Gainsbourg and Charles Aznavour weren\u2019t strangers to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/5-things-to-know-about-parisian-men\/\">Âé¶¹APPian<\/a> streets. They spent time all across the city, writing original works of jazz that live on to this day.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"lyte-wrapper fourthree\" style=\"width:480px;max-width:100%;margin:5px;\"><div class=\"lyMe\" id=\"WYL_d9V-zUlrhEE\"><div id=\"lyte_d9V-zUlrhEE\" data-src=\"\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/d9V-zUlrhEE\/hqdefault.jpg\" class=\"pL\"><div class=\"tC\"><div class=\"tT\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"play\"><\/div><div class=\"ctrl\"><div class=\"Lctrl\"><\/div><div class=\"Rctrl\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><noscript><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/d9V-zUlrhEE\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/d9V-zUlrhEE\/0.jpg\" alt=\"YouTube video thumbnail\" width=\"480\" height=\"340\" \/><\/a><\/noscript><\/div><\/div><div class=\"lL\" style=\"max-width:100%;width:480px;margin:5px;\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/d9V-zUlrhEE\" target=\"_blank\">Watch this video on YouTube<\/a>.<\/div><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">In 1969 Joe Dassen wrote a love story about the <i>Champs Elys\u00e9es <\/i>which quickly became a hit single. Later, in 1973, Serge Lama bore his soul out in his song <i>Les p\u2019tites femmes de Pigalle \u2014 <\/i>a tale about a man who finds his wife in the arms of another but doesn\u2019t mind, because he will not take to the risqu\u00e9 streets of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/discover-paris-hidden-secrets-of-pigalle\/\">Pigalle<\/a> in search of cabaret, sex and fun.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The list of songs that were originally inspired by Âé¶¹APP both locally and abroad is extensive. Here are five of the best that I feel capture the soul of the city better than the rest. <\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">1. <\/span><span class=\"s1\">I Love Âé¶¹APP<\/span><\/h4>\n<h6 class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Ella Fitzgerald &#8211; 1956<\/span><\/h6>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cI love Âé¶¹APP every moment\u2026 every moment of the year\u201d\u2026 we agree, Ella. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Although she didn\u2019t write this song herself, Ella covering the Cole Porter classic put it on the map. In her 1956 album Ella covers a range of Cole Porter songs. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">What\u2019s interesting is that this song went on to further inspire the Audrey Hepburn film named <i>Âé¶¹APP When It Sizzles.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"lyte-wrapper fourthree\" style=\"width:480px;max-width:100%;margin:5px;\"><div class=\"lyMe\" id=\"WYL_3ahbE6bcVf8\"><div id=\"lyte_3ahbE6bcVf8\" data-src=\"\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/3ahbE6bcVf8\/hqdefault.jpg\" class=\"pL\"><div class=\"tC\"><div class=\"tT\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"play\"><\/div><div class=\"ctrl\"><div class=\"Lctrl\"><\/div><div class=\"Rctrl\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><noscript><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/3ahbE6bcVf8\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/3ahbE6bcVf8\/0.jpg\" alt=\"YouTube video thumbnail\" width=\"480\" height=\"340\" \/><\/a><\/noscript><\/div><\/div><div class=\"lL\" style=\"max-width:100%;width:480px;margin:5px;\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/3ahbE6bcVf8\" target=\"_blank\">Watch this video on YouTube<\/a>.<\/div><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Ella Fitzgerald was not quiet about her love for the city of lights. She sang about it repeatedly. Her other classic <i>April in Âé¶¹APP<\/i> mentions the chestnut tress of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/top-ten-plazas-in-paris\/\">plazas<\/a> and how Âé¶¹APP goes into full spring swing. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Anyone who has traveled to Âé¶¹APP during the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/things-to-do-during-spring-in-paris\/\">spring time<\/a> will be able to relate to her rendition of this song. This is the best time to do a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/tour\/city\/paris-walking-tours\/\"><span class=\"s3\">free guided walking tour<\/span><\/a> on the very streets she is referring to\u2026 c&#8217;est magique. <\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">2. <\/span><span class=\"s1\">Le poin\u00e7onneur des Lilas<\/span><\/h4>\n<h6 class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Serge Gainsbourg &#8211; 1958<\/span><\/h6>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Born and raised in the French capital, Serge Gainsbourg adored his home town and it\u2019s safe to say that almost all of his work was inspired in some way by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/an-insiders-guide-to-theatres-in-paris\/\">Âé¶¹APP<\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><i>The Ticket Puncher at Lilas <\/i>was his first real musical success. The song recounts the life and experiences of a ticket puncher on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/how-to-use-the-metro-in-paris\/\">Âé¶¹APPian metro system<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"lyte-wrapper fourthree\" style=\"width:480px;max-width:100%;margin:5px;\"><div class=\"lyMe\" id=\"WYL_eWkWCFzkOvU\"><div id=\"lyte_eWkWCFzkOvU\" data-src=\"\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/eWkWCFzkOvU\/hqdefault.jpg\" class=\"pL\"><div class=\"tC\"><div class=\"tT\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"play\"><\/div><div class=\"ctrl\"><div class=\"Lctrl\"><\/div><div class=\"Rctrl\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><noscript><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/eWkWCFzkOvU\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/eWkWCFzkOvU\/0.jpg\" alt=\"YouTube video thumbnail\" width=\"480\" height=\"340\" \/><\/a><\/noscript><\/div><\/div><div class=\"lL\" style=\"max-width:100%;width:480px;margin:5px;\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/eWkWCFzkOvU\" target=\"_blank\">Watch this video on YouTube<\/a>.<\/div><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The job is repetitive, the puncher is displeased and the listener is taken on a journey through a map of Âé¶¹APP from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/things-to-do-in-the-invalides-museum-in-paris\/\">Invalides<\/a> all the way through to Opera. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Listening to this song after having visited Âé¶¹APP is a whirlwind of mapping and tracking inside of ones head. It also makes one think deeply about the existence of the metro workers and others who keep Âé¶¹APP running in the day-to-day. <\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p7\"><span class=\"s1\">3. Sous le Ciel de Âé¶¹APP<\/span><\/h4>\n<h6 class=\"p8\"><span class=\"s1\">\u00c9dith Piaf &#8211; 1954<\/span><\/h6>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The song that earned <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/what-you-need-to-know-about-edith-piaf\/\">\u00c9dith Piaf<\/a> the nickname of Little Sparrow was this classic called <em>Sous le Ciel de Âé¶¹APP<\/em>; or Under the Sky of Âé¶¹APP. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Paif was not the original writer or singer of this tune. It was actually first written in 1951 by Jean Bretonni\u00e8re for a film with the same name.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=GKEzDfFiRBs\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=GKEzDfFiRBs<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">\u00c9dith Piaf took over the song a few years later and it swept through the nation with popularity and appreciation. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Her legacy lives on in the city to this day. If you\u2019re ever near Menilmontant in the 20th arrondissement of Âé¶¹APP stop by her old house located at 5 Rue Crespin du Gast. You can tour the inside or just admire from street level \u2014 this is where the artist spent most of her early life in the city.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p7\"><span class=\"s1\">4. Dans ma Rue<\/span><\/h4>\n<h6 class=\"p8\"><span class=\"s1\">Doc Gyn\u00e9co &#8211; 1990<\/span><\/h6>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The 90s saw interesting cultural and political shifts in and around Âé¶¹APP. It was the French hiphop <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/top-5-places-with-live-music-in-paris\/\">music<\/a> scene that picked up on these narratives and put them to melodies. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">This song by Doc Gyn\u00e9co was a commentary on the 18th arrondissement of Âé¶¹APP during the 1990s. One of the poorest districts in the city, the 18th deals with issues of racism, poverty and crime; all addressed in this song.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"lyte-wrapper fourthree\" style=\"width:480px;max-width:100%;margin:5px;\"><div class=\"lyMe\" id=\"WYL_E6yp5cGY-FQ\"><div id=\"lyte_E6yp5cGY-FQ\" data-src=\"\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/E6yp5cGY-FQ\/hqdefault.jpg\" class=\"pL\"><div class=\"tC\"><div class=\"tT\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"play\"><\/div><div class=\"ctrl\"><div class=\"Lctrl\"><\/div><div class=\"Rctrl\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><noscript><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/E6yp5cGY-FQ\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/E6yp5cGY-FQ\/0.jpg\" alt=\"YouTube video thumbnail\" width=\"480\" height=\"340\" \/><\/a><\/noscript><\/div><\/div><div class=\"lL\" style=\"max-width:100%;width:480px;margin:5px;\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/E6yp5cGY-FQ\" target=\"_blank\">Watch this video on YouTube<\/a>.<\/div><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">It\u2019s a fresh take on Âé¶¹APPian music as we know it. Up until this time we had been used to the romantic, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/a-complete-guide-to-jazz-culture-in-paris\/\">jazz<\/a> style as sole identification of Âé¶¹APP culture. Incorporating hiphop into a French narrative was new and exciting. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Hiphop is now one of the most widely celebrated genres of music in Âé¶¹APP. <\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p7\"><span class=\"s1\">5. Under the Bridges of Âé¶¹APP<\/span><\/h4>\n<h6 class=\"p8\"><span class=\"s1\">Dean Martin &#8211; 1954<\/span><\/h6>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Even this US born musician wasn\u2019t able to avoid the charm of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/top-5-places-with-jazz-in-paris\/\">Âé¶¹APP<\/a> from influencing his music. In 1954 Dean Martin released <i>Under the Bridges of Âé¶¹APP<\/i> \u2014 if you\u2019ve ever watched a film even remotely affiliated to this city it\u2019s likely you\u2019re familiar with this song. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The lyrics are beautiful. They explore Âé¶¹APP from water level, where the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/things-to-do-near-the-seine-river-paris\/\">Seine<\/a> meets the many bridges that sew the left and right banks to one another. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">While in Âé¶¹APP, the bridges over the Seine are something worth exploring by day <i>and<\/i> by night. See for yourself why so many blockbuster films make use of the Pont des Arts or the Pont Neuf as their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/10-must-visit-movie-locations-of-paris\/\">shooting locations<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"lyte-wrapper fourthree\" style=\"width:480px;max-width:100%;margin:5px;\"><div class=\"lyMe\" id=\"WYL_KiAV3q41Ntc\"><div id=\"lyte_KiAV3q41Ntc\" data-src=\"\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/KiAV3q41Ntc\/hqdefault.jpg\" class=\"pL\"><div class=\"tC\"><div class=\"tT\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"play\"><\/div><div class=\"ctrl\"><div class=\"Lctrl\"><\/div><div class=\"Rctrl\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><noscript><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/KiAV3q41Ntc\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/KiAV3q41Ntc\/0.jpg\" alt=\"YouTube video thumbnail\" width=\"480\" height=\"340\" \/><\/a><\/noscript><\/div><\/div><div class=\"lL\" style=\"max-width:100%;width:480px;margin:5px;\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/KiAV3q41Ntc\" target=\"_blank\">Watch this video on YouTube<\/a>.<\/div><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The first song mentioned in this roundup was<i> I Love Âé¶¹APP<\/i>, a cover by Ella Fitzgerald. Dean Martin also took a swing at covering this song. My loyalty remains with Ella on this one but both are worth checking out!<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Between the art works, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/top-ten-places-in-paris-to-see-fashion\/\">fashion<\/a> design, poetry, film, literature and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/music-day-in-paris\/\">music<\/a> it\u2019s safe to say Âé¶¹APP has been everyone\u2019s muse at one point or another.
