T'en va pas
"T'en va pas" (Eng. "Don't Go Away") is a 1986 song recorded by the French artist Elsa Lunghini. Released as a single on 12 October 1986, this song, her debut single, was the soundtrack of the 1986 movie La Femme de ma vie. It was a smash hit in France.
Background
In the movie, Elsa portrayed Jane Birkin's daughter and played the piano in a short scene. Finally, a whole song has been composed by Romano Musumarra who decided to release it as a single. Musumarra has already worked and helped producing hits for 80's famous French artists Jeanne Mas ("En Rouge et Noir") and Princess Stephanie of Monaco ("Ouragan").
"T'en va pas" was a huge hit in France, and managed to export itself across Europe with an English recording : "Papa, Please Don't Go". This is also well known in Japan because it was used for Jeans TV commercial. Also in Japan, Tite Kubo used the song as the image song for the character Orihime Inoue from Bleach. It also has been used as the image song for the character Yumisuka Satsuki from Tsukihime. In 2008 the song has been used in television commercials for Impulse brand deodorant in Argentina. The song was available in French-language and in English-language on the best of Elsa, l'essentiel 1986-1993.
T'en va pas (Esther Ofarim song)
"T'en va pas" (English: Don't Go) was the Swiss entrant to the Eurovision Song Contest 1963. It was sung in French by Esther Ofarim.
The song performed tenth on the night (following Yugoslavia's Vice Vukov with "Brodovi" and preceding France's Alain Barrière with "Elle était si jolie"). At the close of the voting, the song had received 40 points, placing 2nd in a field of 16.
Controversially, after Norway had announced the votes, Katie Boyle (the presenter) said that she could not hear them and would return to them. However, everyone else did hear them. When Katie went back to Norway again the votes had been changed, thus changing the outcome of the contest and giving the victory to Norway's neighbours Denmark at Switzerland's expense.
It was succeeded as Swiss representative at the 1964 contest by Anita Traversi singing "I miei pensieri".
