Robbie Nevil C'EST LA VIE

Great pop track from the '80s. It still rocks

I've always liked the long version on the maxi single better than the short version.

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

I love his version of it, it's actually better than the original version that preceded it:

I never knew somebody else recorded Robbie's song. Cool info! This one is kinda lacking, but still has that feel-good vibe.

Its not Robbie's song, it's Beau William's song.

Robbie co-wrote the song, dude lol . It was given to Beau Williams in 1984 and when Robbie recorded his debut album in 1986 he decided to do it himself.

i find it annoying that they mispronounce the word 'c'est'

it's pronounced like 'seh' not 'say' mad
