I think I first encountered this song as piano sheet music and loved it immediately. I have grown fond of the original recording (performed by Vicky Leandros), though if, like my wife, you can't endure pitchy 1960s pop singing, you should probably stick with Mauriat.
I did give her version a listen once or twice, but it’s likely the nostalgia of Mauriat’s version that gets me. If this was my first time hearing it I don’t know that I’d even like it, ha.
