Au Nom de La Rose - Song Information

Song Information

The song is a partly cover version in French-language of the Francis Lai song (Where Do I Begin?) Love Story, originally recorded as theme song for the 1970 movie Love Story directed by Arthur Hiller. Only the chorus is similar, and the lyrics are changed and deal with loss and love in a sensual way. The sound is mostly R&B. The lyrics were written by Moos, and Lai's music reworked by Moos and Pascal Castro.

The song has been added to many French compilations such as Hit Express 8, Hit Connection - Best Of 1999 (released as the time of the song), and Top 50 : 20 ans de tubes Vol. 1 (2007). It has also been included on Hits de diamant, a best of containing big hits in France.

Famous quotes containing the words song and/or information:

    There’s something wonderfully exciting about the quiet sing song of an aeroplane overhead with all the guns in creation lighting out at it, and searchlights feeling their way across the sky like antennae, and the earth shaking snort of the bombs and the whimper of shrapnel pieces when they come down to patter on the roof.
    John Dos Passos (1896–1970)

    Rejecting all organs of information ... but my senses, I rid myself of the Pyrrhonisms with which an indulgence in speculations hyperphysical and antiphysical so uselessly occupy and disquiet the mind.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
