Tiny


YeYe-Girls say: "In 1959, Tiny Young (real name: Thien Juong Ton Hu Thi) was discovered whilst singing in a restaurant (La Table du Mandarin), then she goy small roles in several movies : Le Jeu De La Verite, Les Parias De La Gloire. In 1963, she had a hit with Tais-toi Petite Folle." Well, according to the list on YYG she had a lot more singles released - I'm very curious about her coverversions of In Dreams by Roy Orbison and The Beatles' Eight Days a Week. Anybody has them available? Posted here is Tu es le roi des menteurs, (co-)written by Henri Salvador. That is probably him singing as well.
(Really charming sites you get when googling on 'tiny yong', by the way)

Tiny Young - Le roi des menteurs

UPDATE:

Tiny Yong - Tais toi petite folle

  1. Amusing number! I just never understood why the vocals stand out so much though...
