This is one of the first French songs, I remember. I think the very first one I listened to without understanding the words but also the meaning of the song, was La vie en rose . Did I understand this one? Not at first, but ai loved the song, because you could dance to it. As I got older, I would always listen to it every now and then, when I visited Memory Lane. And as I got older I understood the meaning of the song.
I'll still listen to it next year and the year after that. But are there other French songs, I should give a try?

"In-tango" is a song by Italian dancer and singer-songwriter In-Grid, released in 2003. The English version of this song, titled "We Tango Alone", was recorded in Italy as a B-side track and released as its own single in Australia. "In-tango" reached the top 10 in Denmark and reached the top 40 in Germany, Greece, Hungary and Spain.
The story is about In-Grid watching a movie called In-Tango. She is the star of this film. In the film, she is late for the prom. She walks up to a handsome gentleman and they dance. The girl who danced with this man leaves jealous. The film ends with the entire audience leaving the room because the lyrics are quite disturbing. When In-Grid sees the film, she wears the same clothes as when she acted and sings the same song that she sang in the film.
The lyrics were written by In-Grid and Marco Soncini, who co-produced the song with Alfredo Larry Pignagnoli. The English version was also co-written by Daniela Galli (aka Dhany) and Paul Sears.
