I Love Paris
Cole Porter Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Every time I look down on this timeless town
Whether blue or gray be her skies.
Whether loud be her cheers or soft be her tears,
More and more do I realize:

I love Paris in the springtime.
I love Paris in the fall.
I love Paris in the winter when it drizzles,
I love Paris in the summer when it sizzles.

I love Paris every moment,
Every moment of the year.




I love Paris, why, oh why do I love Paris?
Because my love is near.

Почти дотягивает до уровня Маэстро

@ravid2420

Но только тут поётся про любовь к парижу,а там немного про другое))

@@ravid2420 там поется про другую любовь😅😅😅

@Bumbarrash

До уровня Маэстро невозможно дотянуться! Как такие сравнения вообще на ум приходят?

@themostcapitalistpersonint5701

@@ravid2420 А что не так с произношением? Гласные абсолютно так же звучат как и в этой песне. Буква "а" не произносится с оттопыренным языком как в русском. А слово "penis" в английском вообще произносится "пи́нэс" и не имеет ни малейшей схожести с 'paris'. Подлецы и завистники придумали этот миф о каком то пенисе, потому что им что то послышалось и извилин не хватает, а дешёвки и грязь даже проверить факты не могут. Лохов разводят. Если бы он пел как из гугл переводчика, то шваль говорила бы "парус", потому что причин для дэбилизма не нужно.

THE SINGER IS IMPOSSIBLY BEAUTIFUL

@mercedesramosborregoramobo1859

JOHN TE HAN TRADUCIDO LOS DE YOUTUBE IMPOSSIBLY COMO * IMPOSIBLEMENTE * BELLA

@mercedesramosborregoramobo1859

CONTINUACIÓN A MI RESPUESTA A JUAN O JOHN EN INGLÉS. PIENSO QUE DDBERÍAS HABER USADO : COQUETTE O FLIRT. NO ES BELLA, ES GUAPA Y RESULTONA.
LA BELLEZA EN MI IDIOMA TIENE OTRO SIGNIFICADO. TATIANA ES MUY COQUETA Y TAMBIEN FLIRTEA PQ ATRAE CON SU PORTE Y MIRADA. YO SÉ LO QUE QUIERES DECIR. DESCENDIENTE DE SAJONES, GERMÁNICO O ESCANDINAVA, NO ES.
CANTA EN ESPAÑOL MUY BIEN, ASÍ QUE SI ES GUAPA, ATRACTIVA Y COQUETA ES QUE ES MEDITERRÁNEA. LO SIENTO PIR LAS BRITÁNICAS.
