I'm sorry, but I do NOT know this (why can't you delete your wrong inputs?). I might have been wrong since the late 70s and after having owned 6-7 of their fantastic albums.
I just love this song so much. Don’t understand a word, but notwithstanding that.. beautiful harmonies and a unique playful rhythm. I also love the head rocking, eye movements and cheeky smile at 00:50
as far as I know Anna is single, and fancy free. Kate had two kids with Rufus Wainwright. no idea about Anna's personal life but been listening to them since 78 when I returned to Canada.

J'adore cette chanson pour la sonorité , la magnifique et touchante interprétation de Kate et Anna . De plus quel plaisir cet accent canadien d'autant que ça fait penser aux nombreux Percherons partis vers le " Nouveau Monde " et qui peuplent encore l'esprit de nombreux locaux 🤩
When I heard this song for the first time, I had not been aware of the vibrant Francophone community in Canada. It amazed and mesmerized me and I have remained ever since.
@UCKkWvrqZbDI_kwR5ovxLJzA Sorry, the wording was badly chosen. I meant song. This one is still played. Dion is not. Point in case is, however, that it was a one-hit wonder thing. A francophone friend of mine had the LP but this one song stood out. I remember there was one other song, not bad, but the remainder of the album was run of the mill. Like Chuck E's in Love and Dreadlock Holiday. Just one song on the album that's any good. Quite different from Santana, for example. But then again, I am not a folk music fan at all. Just this one song.
@@catholiccowboy8545 No, I didn't but I know all the old songs of Bob Dylan and recognised it immediately when the singer started singing. Nevertheless, the rhythm is not as quirky as I had expected. But the voice and singing is wonderful. Thank you for this one. Almost all interpretations of Dylan are better than Dylan did it himself.
Woooooo... their harmonies did hit me at an early age of about 18:) introduced and listening by/at some progressive aunts....still grateful to hear this incredible song after so many years XXXXXXX
Deze tune heeft decennia in mijn kop gezeten zonder te weten hoe het heette en wie de artiesten waren. En nu gevonden op onze eigen Toppop. Dank je wel!
Ook een hele tijd gezocht op internet. Wist mij nog vaag iets van Mcgarrigle te herinneren en zo het uiteindelijk gevonden. Altijd leuk om even een uurtje door de muziekhistorie te gaan.
Was Fortunate to have sen them 3 times, the last a summer night on Long Island, a park a free concert, no one really knew who they were. Had an actual conversation with them, after the show, wish I hadn't been so star struck, but they were my heart and soul at the time, Wonderful Music!
@@leslier.3710 They were at the Palace of Fine Arts. Not an intimate venue, but the place was packed. Considering how there was little publicity, that said a lot about the power of word of mouth in SF. ☺ I only went to Bimbo's once, to see Kevin Spacey do his Bobby Darin routine. He was very good. Gee, what ever happened to the talented fella, anyway? 😬 I saw so many epic performances in The City. I'm now in rural Vermont, a short drive from the Canadian border. We rarely see any Big Name entertainers here, but last weekend Bernie Sanders dropped by - as he does from time to time. Talk about a seasoned professional - he's the Frank Sinatra of democratic socialism! 👍 Have a safe and interesting week. 🐧
@@acechadwick I tend to think so. I mean, I read and write constantly - books, poetry, biographies, plays, lectures. I'm also a lifelong Artist/illustrator who has lately discovered 1880s British photographic processes. Too, I make annoyingly deep and brooding silent films. I live in very rural Vermont. A family of skunks lives under the porch and you could not have better neighbors. If Ace Chadwick isn't your real name, you should have it legally changed. Have a safe and interesting week, Ace! ☺ ♥🐧
@@TheStockwell Thank you my dear! I think you should publish under the name The Stockwell too! I also write which is why I loved your erudite yet conversational turn of phrase, a method I tend to use. And the way you flip the subject matter from photographic processes to skunks with nary a stutter. I live in very not rural Liverpool but Vermont looks amazing. I can picture the Autumn or as you would say Fall in that beautiful part of the world. Lucky you!
I saw them around 1980. They gave a free outdoor concert on the former Expo 67 site in Montreal. I didn't even know about, I was on a bike ride and happened to come across them.
I have studied French for five years and shouldn't have problems singing in French but this song is a real challenge to learn. Their prononciation makes me stumble on the words but I'll keep trying. (The reason I as a Swede found this song is because of the Swedish version "Ingen kommer undan politiken", no one escapes politics.)
French people would not sing it with this charming québécois accent (the song is in fact not really known in France). Plus, Anna is rolling the r à la québécoise, which is a bit different than people used to do in France before. Your comment made me realize that l’accent québécois is a real part of the musicality of the song.
A great 1976 hit song from her 1975 production album then released it January 1976 from the sisters Kate & Anna McGarrigle from Montreal, Qc. Canada. It is quite very rare that a french song became an international hit even it was not a big worldwide hit. I remember in that song has been modified in the 1984 Bye Bye (Dominique Michel & Pauline Martin) modified that song for funny side. But as a young child I thought that was a 1984 hit song, but in reality it was a 1976 hit song. Just love it :)
It's well worn story about life in general - the words of the repeated refrain couplet; Y a longtemps qu'on fait d'la politique (We've been in politics a long time) Vingt ans de guerre contre les moustiques (Twenty years of war against mosquitoes) are an oblique reference to the seeming futility of raging against those in positions of power? Many of the other lines mention everyday activities, such as taking the dog for a walk on Sunday
As others have said it was Kate and not Anna who died in 2010. Anna is very much alive and well to this day. Here they are actually miming to their recorded version of this song and brilliantly they do it too. If you didn't know you wouldn't know.
Un piece de histoire. La rue St. Catherine en Montreal en mon avis . Beautiful! Je me souviens avec tout ma coure. Heart on heart. My late sister I miss our cazy days and bistro nights together with you ( 😢😢

so pure and honest I wish these angels had been in the London production of HAIR in 1968 I would have looked after them j Vincent Edwards old hippy love and peace for all
In hindsight this was for me their first one I heard of these Wonder Voices - later on I started collecting a range of their fine recordings. Same goes for Loudon Wainwright...
I have literally never heard “Canadian” and “Cajun” in the same sentence before, never mind applied to Montreal musicians. Is that a phrase you’ve heard about them before?
@@SiriuaA I figured. I’m Acadian. We come from Canada. Cajuns are our expulsed ancestors who live in places like Louisiana in the US. The roots are the same. The cultures are very different. I’m very protective of my Acadian roots. The history is rich but the expulsion that led to the Cajuns is painful. But they have undeniably better PR.
Doet me altijd denken aan Gilles Villeneuve (RIP)...Deze dames zingen in het Frans maar het Quebeqois wat ze normaal spraken was wat Gilles sprak...lastig te verstaan
It was Kate who died on 2010/01/18, sadly, not Anna, who fortunately still lives (as of 2023/06/15). Kate died of sarcoma. What beautiful, soulful, joyous, and tender music she, and with Anna, left.
Could anyone help me with this: Joan Baez is supposed to have commented quite UNkind in her biography of 1988 on her cooperation with the McGarrigle Sisters - the book has no Index. Does anyone know the details ?
If you're talking about her '87 memoir "And a Voice to Sing WIth," wouldn't that predate their collaboration, which took place in '95? Anyway, my edition of the memoir makes no mention of Kate nor Anna.
Ça dépend toujours de ce que l'artiste peut et veut produire. Certains québécois et canadiens français chantent comme ils parlent, avec leurs accents locaux. D'autres préfèrent le faire dans un language plus neutre qui rejoint plus d'auditeurs. On entend bien l'accent gascon de Francis Cabrel. C'est la même chose pour beaucoup de canadiens et plus particulièrement pour ceux qui ont grandi en parlant aussi anglais. On retrouve aussi plusieurs anglophones qui ont adopté le Québec et qui chantent principalement en français. Voilà. J'espère que ça vous éclaire un peu.
Merci béchamel. J’aime bien quand les gens posent des questions, on prend le temps de leur répondre comme il faut, et ils ne daignent même pas dire un simple merci.. les barbares sont à l’œuvre, pour citer Baricco.

I first heard this back in the 70’s.
68 year old man. Listening to this makes me (almost) feel young again. The harmonies make my blood rush again. Forgive me but this is fantastic.
You are not alone !
Anna is, thank God, still alive. Kate sadly passed away in 2010. Anna is at the piano in this clip, Kate plays the accordion. The sisters and their sister Jane McGarrigle have made the world a better place with their superb music/poetry. They may not be well known among the masses, but their art will last. They belong to the abolute top of North American music. God bless them.
They made me happy for 60 odd years..
I met them when I lived in Montreal in 1986 on St-Denis Street a the Bistro-A JoJo...Great time.
always a favorite of mine, since the 1970s.
I believe it is Kate on the piano and Anna on the accordion
I'm sorry, but I do NOT know this (why can't you delete your wrong inputs?). I might have been wrong since the late 70s and after having owned 6-7 of their fantastic albums.
100% agree. The McGarrigle Family's music has also enriched decades of my life.
Their first album can still bring a tear to my eyes , it's full of beautiful songs , one of my favourite albums
I couldn't agree more! Heart like Wheel still helps me cope with some things.
They are one of my favorite groups of all times (underrated and underappreciated).
Their multi-voiced singing is so wonderful to listen to, perfect !
I just love this song so much. Don’t understand a word, but notwithstanding that.. beautiful harmonies and a unique playful rhythm. I also love the head rocking, eye movements and cheeky smile at 00:50

When I heard this song for the first time, I had not been aware of the vibrant Francophone community in Canada. It amazed and mesmerized me and I have remained ever since.
After 37 years, this song and arrangement still sounds as fresh as in 1984. Possibly the best recording ever to come from Canada.

Best
The lyrics are complete and utter rhubarb! But its a pretty little number and harmonies that go off in some nice unexpected directions.
The lyrics are probably better than most of the US/UK pop rock production since the 50s.. et la rhubarbe, c’est très bon.
