Also, he mentions that he isn’t allowed to sing about certain things without making them dirty, but Brassens sang about those all the time without having to sexualize them (he just did so sometimes).<br /><br />Also, I would have translated “cons” as “asses” to convey the double meaning. “The love that leads to Rome” may also come from the saying “All roads lead to Rome,” meaning that all roads lead to the same place in the long run (reflecting the time when all roads really did lead to the city of Rome).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4068332053655053423.post-12985384672898141462021-07-04T13:56:14.189+01:002021-07-04T13:56:14.189+01:00Great interpretation.
