Ne Me Laisse Pas L'aimer

Since my youth in french immersion here in NB one of my favourite little lanquage games is to try and instantly translate a song while singing it. This morning in the shower, for example, I tried to translate Imagine as I sang it - vous peux m'appellez un reveur, mais je suis pas tout seul - you get the idea. It has also led to some classic butchering such as when Wheat tried to translate MC Hammer - Voici comment on roll on roll. The reason I was thinking about these translations this week is because this new Stella commercial has stumped me trying to translate it back from French.

I still have no idea what she is saying beyong - peu pas resister. And it's true, I can't resist; no commercial I have seen this year has made me want to buy that product like this one has. So tonight, with a day off tomorrow, I am going to enjoy me some Stella and probably hum this song.

Cheers to good advertising!

Pace out.
