anyone know the title of the music that's something about Springtime in Paris? Apologies but it's been a while since I saw the film.
thanks.

Ha! Excellent ... I did actually find it and bought the album from Amazon. Even watched the film, it was on Film4 last night!
Thanks!

"Shadows of Paris" is what you're looking for... in the movie, it was sung by Fran Jeffries (who also sang Megalo Strassera in the first Pink Panther movie), but when the soundtrack was released, they got a choir to sing it... had something to do with the rights, i believe... but Fran's version has never been officially released, which is sad, because i always thought her performance was top notch... very disappointing the way they handled this...

Many thanks indeed.
I bought the album and discovered that the choir sang it - extremely disappointed! Such an inferior version, hopefully somewhere I might find an 'unofficial' version!
Thanks once again
