mettez le poids sur moi

A little back story . . .
In high school, I was obsessed with a band called Travis. They did a cover of "The Weight" by The Band. Therefore, I was totally obsessed with that song and decided to make a mix CD of all covers of that song. It didn't work that well because I just kept finding a bunch of "rockers" covering it live. That just wasn't my scene back then. Maybe it was because I'd never been to a concert. I still don't love live recordings, but I like the spontaneity of some of the songs. I guess I'd just rather be there. Anyway, back to "The Weight." Today, I heard a cover in French. Weirdest thing ever. To know the lyrics, but then, not.
