[edit] Gay?

hi well, there are articles about it on the charles-trenet.net site, such as this: http://www.charles-trenet.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=46 (and when i can figure out how to create link here I guess i'll try to work it into the article!

Kurt, good job of working it into the article, except for the "It's only fair" bit at the beginning. If what went before necessitated that then it (what went before) should be made more neutral so that the article itself is not seen as making a judgment on the appropriateness of Trenet's choices here. --Vaughan Pratt (talk) 02:19, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] and?

My main thought about the article so far is that it has a lot of biogrphical data, but doesn't really say too much about his career, especially not his career in the 30s and 40s which would seem to be key. i added a couple graphs at the beginning trying to give an overview, which seemed to be missing. i'm afraid i don't know French enough to have read Trenet's novels, but it would be interesting if someone familiar with them could add some information about them.


[edit] Phallic theme?

I'd like to see the reference claiming phallic themes for "Y'a de la joie". I'm sceptical. Denis 03:19, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
