'At the age of 37, she realised she'd never ride through Paris
In a sports car, with the warm wind in her hair'
I did it - well it was a Ford Capri with the window open and I was 37 and driving.
BUT, I've never seen Marianne. Sounds great.
Yes great song. The video is a bit of a let-down though and doesn't really portray what's in the lyrics. I love the idea of the suburban housewive who goes mad and clambers onto the roof of the house, when all the laughter grows too loud...
Incidentally interesting that Kaz has a Patsy Stone avatar, as Marianne popped up in "Ab Fab" a couple of times as the female incarnation of the devil - and was very good!!
