The Anti- Marriage Proposal-- 1966. Invoking the Roman pagan deities Cupid and Venus, Georges Brassens tells his lady why the Christian sacrament of marriage is actually a sacrilege: it kills love. Many would agree. True to his word, Brassens never married his sweetheart of 30 years for whom this song was intended. Translation and video choice by philipchek of Paris (this song is one of his favorites) revised by lightning494 of New York.
