La Seu d'Urgell
La Seu d'Urgell (Catalan: [ɫə ˈsɛw ðurˈʒeʎ], locally: [la ˈsɛw ðuɾˈdʒeʎ]; Spanish: Seo de Urgel, formerly in Catalan: Urgell) is a town located in the Catalan Pyrenees in Spain. La Seu d'Urgell is also the capital of the comarca Alt Urgell, head of the judicial district of la Seu d'Urgell and the seat of Bishop of Urgell, one of the Andorra co-princes. It is in the district of Alt Pirineu i Aran (High Pyrenees and Aran), and is the town with the most inhabitants, having 17.4% of the district population. La Seu d'Urgell and Puigcerdà together have 30% of the population of the area.
It is located at the confluence of the Segre and the Valira rivers. The city is in the local region of Urgellet, a Pyrenean region formed by 16 municipalities of Alt Urgell. Urgellet and Andorra were the originary County of Urgell with capital in la Seu d'Urgell before the county expansion to the south.
Alt Urgell is the gateway to the state of Andorra and the proximity to this important population center and economic activity is largely one of the reasons for the current drive of the city of la Seu d'Urgell within Alt Pirineu i Aran.

by: Gainsbourg SergeLa femme des uns sous le corps des autres,
A des soupirs de voluptés,
On s'en fout quand c'est pas la notre,
Mais celles des autres
D'abord on se dit vous et puis on se dit tout,
On s'envoit un verre, on s'envoit en l'air,
Et tout la haut la haut, tout la haut la haut,
On regarde en bas et qu'est ce qu'on y voit ?
La femme des uns sous le corps des autres,
Et on commence à s'inquieter,
On se dit que si, c'était la notre, la qui se vautre,
On lui ferait passer le goût de recommencer,
Et pour changer d'air, on l'enverrait faire,
Un tour la haut, la haut, tout la haut la haut,
Et pour s'consoler, alors on irait, on irait voir
La femme des autres, et quand elle é-carterait les bras
On se dirait elle est comme la notre, la femme des autres,
On irait chasser dans les beaux quartiers
Et dans l'ascenseur on ferait le joli coeur,
Et tout la haut la haut, tout la haut la haut,
Venu d'Amerique, y'aurait de la musique.
Car pour les pin up, il faut des pick up,
Faut pour les soulever, pour les envoyer,
La haut la haut, tout la haut la haut,
Des disques longues durées, haute fidelité,
Haute fidelité, Haute fidelité, Haute fidelité.
