France Gall - Laisse Tomber Les Filles

April March - Chick Habit

5 comments

I was really excited to hear the English version to "Laisse Tomber Les Filles" at the end of Grindhouse. I didn't know that this song was remade to "Chick Habit" in 1995 (the original song was written by Serge Gainsbourg for France Gall in 1964), by a woman called April March.

So I listened to both song - both are identical, except, obviously, the language. I may be leaning towards the US version only because I understand it :)

PS, It looks like the Grindhouse soundtrack is available in two CDs, the Planet Terror soundtrack and the Death Proof soundtrack. Complete track listing can be found on www.soundtrackcollector.com

UPDATE: OMG! I just remembered that I used to play April March on my radio show!! The song I played was called "Kooky", it was released under the Kokopop label (which was also responsible for the Chia Pet single)! Mel, you probably remember this !! :)

[this is good] The song also appears prominently in indie flick But I'm A Cheerleader, starring Natasha Lyonne. On the strength of it, I bought the Chick Habit EP and her 2002 album Triggers, which is a lot more electronic sounding.

I like both versions a lot. Fabienne Del Sol also did an excellent version (in French) on her No Time for Sorrows album, I recommend listening to it!
