"J'imaginais que j'allais voyager avec des gitans et que j'allais chanter dans la rue. Un peu comme Piaf. Je connaissais toutes les chansons des chanteuses réalistes, Damia, Berthe Sylva, Fréhel. Je me rappelle aussi que je voulais me marier avec Louis Armstrong"
— Anna Karina

I imagined that I was going to travel with gypsies and that I was going to sing in the street. A bit like [Edith] Piaf. I knew all the songs of the [chanson realist] singers; Damia, Berthe Sylva, Fréhel. I also remember that I wanted to marry Louis Armstrong.
