Last October, I linked to a couple of videos featuring the team of Michael Flanders and Donald Swann, two very funny Britishers who wrote and often performed silly tunes. From the response I received, I gather a lot of you were unfamiliar with Flanders and Swann, and were quite happy to discover them.
Here's another ditty from the boys…a song about Charles de Gaulle. This is from 1967 when de Gaulle was still president of France and very much in the news. Flanders and Swann decided the time had come to end their 11 year career so they did a final tour, then performed the show for a last TV special. This clip is from that special.
