We were listening to Billy Joel's Piano Man and it reminded me of another song, but I can't find it despite much Googling. It's not the Goo Goo Dolls which people say sounds like Piano Man.
I can only remember brief snatches of it, but it's definitely about being somewhere French. It might have an accordion in it. It's a male singer and he sings about an avenue something something, possibly the folies bergeres...for some reason I've got it filed in my mind with Ralph McTell's Streets of London and Windmills of my Mind but I don't think it sounds like them
and I'm pretty sure it's from the 1970s.
Help me please!
