Trying to identify song, hum along link provided?

Question

1970's or 1960's song. Heard on the oldies station the other day. Pretty sure I've heard it in the past. Strictly instrumental, brief interludes of harpsichord I couldn't imitate with my voice.

Follow this link to hear me trying to hum the tune, lol: http://www.zshare.net/audio/181362908302cd05/

Answer 1

hello there,

that's "love is blue", best known in a instrumental version by Paul Mauriat.

But in fact it's a French song ""L'Amour est Bleu" sung by Vicky Leandros, and it was the Luxemburg entry in 1967for what in Europe is known as The European Song Contest.
