Fyld en håbløst bleg fransk popsang op med en gennembanal love gone wrong-tekst der foregår i Nordengland, og jeg er straks lidt med. Her er Marie Lafôret med ‘Manchester Et Liverpool’ (Wiki-oversættelse under videoen) fra 1967…

Manchester and Liverpool
I remember strolling along the streets
In the midst of this crowd
Among the thousands of unknown people
Manchester and Liverpool
I went away in all the lost corners
Looking for this beautiful love
That I knew close to you

I love you, I love you
How I love your voice
Saying to me:
“I love you, I love you”
And I believed in it so much and more

Manchester is of a sad mood
Liverpool is crying over the sea
I do not know anymore if I exist
The white boats fear the winter
Manchester is in the rain
And Liverpool is no longer
In today’s haze
Love is also lost

I love you, I love you
How I love your voice
Saying to me:
“I love you, I love you”
And I do not believe in it ever again…
