"Huit Jours Par Semaine" Oooh. Tiny Yong was born in Cambodia but exiled to France while a teenager. She appeared in numerous TV shows in the 60s and briefly in film, her first role being in the thriller The Game of Truth (1961). After the 60s her recording career was over and she has since disappeared form the public eye. As you can imagine there is a whole host of French Beatles covers. This is one of my favourites out of curiosity, but also Les Sinners do an affectionate creation of loveable-moptops in a version of Penny Lane. I'd love to think this was shot in Liverpool but its most likely to be in Quebec where the group were formed. The best part for me has to be from 1:40 where the lead singer pulls off a head bobbing McCartney "ooooh" better than the original.
