Bénodet (Breton: Benoded) is a commune in the Finistère département in Brittany in northwestern France.
The name Benoded means in Breton, "mouth of the Odet". It is about 16 kilometres south of Quimper.
The town is home to a casino, a thalassotherapy, cinema, a marina, hotels and a few beaches. As with many coastal towns in Brittany, there are many second homes in the town, the population increasing sixfold over the summertime. Bénodet is also home to menhirs and a church named after Brigid of Kildare, a 5th-century Irish saint; which was built at the end of the 11th century and classed as a historic monument in 1916. The town is home to the Tri Martolod brewery.
Inhabitants of Bénodet are called Bénodetois.
Most events in the town take place in the summertime, due to the town's bustling summer season. In May, the Odet yacht club runs the Obelix Trophy, a sailing race with about 100 boats taking part over 4 days. Every year the commune runs a series of music concerts every Friday evening, with French pop rock group Superbus playing there in 2005. Every Monday there is a market in the town centre.
Two lips need two more to kiss them
Two lips need two more to miss 'em
Baby, I need you like you need me
The sun and sky need one another
That's the way we need each other
Baby, I need you like you need me
Let's not try to fool our hearts, dear
Let's make up tonight
It only hurts to be apart, dear
'Cause it isn't right
Your lips need my lips to kiss them
My lips need your lips to miss them
Baby, I need you like you need me
Two hearts make a team of love, dear
When they both beat just as one, dear
Baby, I need you like you need me
Two hands need two more to cling to
A lover needs one more to sing to
Baby, I need you like you need me
Let's not try to fool our hearts, dear
Let's make up tonight
It only hurts to be apart, dear
'Cause it isn't right
People need someone to hold them
Love 'em lots and sometimes scold them
Baby, I need you like you need me
