Joe Li Taxi by French singer Vanessa Paradis. It was a hit in England.

@sylvsn59 Yep, that's it. I believe it's on my now 11 album from back in the late 80's.

@minoltaguy it's pretty good, very catchy

@sylvsn59 I think she was 14 when she sang this. At 52 today she is beautiful.
I don't keep up with charts or popularity, but this is one that I like

@SomeMichGuy This was a pop hit too in the UK in 1970, sung in English by Miguel Rios (as 'Song of Joy). It was much condensed from the original!
@supersnipe Really? Interesting!

You probably know that--for some reason--the Ode to Joy is big with the Japanese on the New Year!
