This year started with lots of rain, so it would be appropriate to open the season with Il pleut sur la route, a 1935 tango composed by Henry Himmel and Robert Champfleury and made famous by Tino Rossi. I fist heard it when I was a child and had no clue what language it was sung in. Somebody said it was an "Argentine tango", so I thought it could be in "Argentinian language".
90 years later, Il pleut sur la route is an undisputed classic and is as Argentine as it gets. Just ask Chicos de Pampa (チコス・デ・パンパ).
