That became a common refrain of ridicule against the song among my high school peers. There were those who would cattily slack the song’s lyrical conclusion (“Just remember in the winter – Far beneath the bitter snows – Lies the seed that with the sun’s love – In the spring becomes the rose”) by asserting that roses are cultivated by making cuttings, and are not grown from seeds. I remember hearing it sung again and again at my high school’s musical auditions, music concerts and talent shows. It already sounded like a classic when it came out in 1979. The Rose – Bette Midler Can’t not start this rose themed medley without “The Rose”, which is arguably The Rose Song above all. And right off the bat I concede that my bastardization of the famous Shakespeare quote “a rose by any other name would smell as sweet” (Romeo and Juliet, Act 2, Scene 2) in this post’s title mangles the original beyond logical comprehension. So let’s enjoy some beautiful roses, and since we can’t enjoy their visual splendor accompanied by their sweet smells, we’ll enjoy their sweet sounds in the forms of favorite “Rose” songs from the last hundred years.

First of all, there was the death of her daughter, Marcelle in 1935 and then the death of her partner Marcel Cerdan in a plane crash in 1949. Her life is unfortunately marked by many personal tragedies. She became in Paris “La mome piaf” (mome is French slang for child) because she was small and fragile. Louis Leplée, owner of a musical café on the Champs Elysées, spotted her and introduced her to the world of cabarets. After running away from her family at the age of 15, she ends up singing in the street. This French female singer was born in Paris on December 15, 1915. Édith Piaf is probably the most famous post-war singer in France and in the world. There were also many covers of this song in France with the French version of Yves Montand, the version of the Jamaican singer Grace Jones or the instrumental version of Michel Legrand. The music has been a huge success in the United States with the English adaption of Louis Armstrong.
