Song of the Day: Bonjour Tristesse by Juliette Greco

The DVD case of this film sits at my side. It's empty. This is one of my more annoying habits but I have faith the disc is somewhere amongst my possessions. That said it reminded me of this wonderful song from a wonderful film based on a wonderful novel.
This song, to me, is the musical embodiment of depression itself.
The words holds such a melancholic power that truly resonate through me whenever I hear it. I recommend you listen to the song, watch the film and read the book by Francoise Sagan which is probably easily found on Amazon.
Enjoy, lovely people.
I hope that, if you relate to this most powerful song, you feel good today or that you feel better soon.
