The only version I know of that has no spoken words over the intro of "C'est La Vie" is the UK CD single. All US versions (album and single), as far as I know, have the spoken words over the intro. It was the US version. (Not sure what the UK album has.) But I can say for certain that the UK single definitely just music on the intro.

And yes, I noticed the double entendre the first time I heard the song. But it sounds like I was older than some of the commenters above when the song came out.

I was in elementary school when this came out and I
definitely remember a few boys always snickering at the
"I'll show you mine, you show me yours" line.

I have ESK 41626, which has the Radio Edit on track 1. This version has the spoken intro.]]> Sun, 13 Jun 2021 18:11:12 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9614&PID=58385&title=bwitchedcest-la-vie#58385 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9614&PID=58384&title=bwitchedcest-la-vie#58384 Author: thecdguy

I believe that's the "Radio Edit" that appears as Track 1 on the Promo CD Single.

I never even noticed anything unusual about the lyrics. But after you mentioned it, I looked them up and I see what you mean! ]]> Sun, 13 Jun 2021 18:00:49 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9614&PID=58384&title=bwitchedcest-la-vie#58384 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9614&PID=58383&title=bwitchedcest-la-vie#58383 Author: prisdeej

I have an edit in my library that removes the "some people
say I look like me dad", spoken vocal over the intro,
which is not the way I ever remember hearing this song on
the radio. Was this edit done in-house or was it released
officially on a promo CD single?

This is a guilty pleasure song of mine, and the lyrics
went right over my head in high school. ]]> Sun, 13 Jun 2021 14:13:39 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9614&PID=58383&title=bwitchedcest-la-vie#58383
