On 7 January 1964, Françoise Hardy was interviewed by ITN’s John Edwards in a London hotel room. Two years after being propelled to fame with her 1962 debut single Tous Les Garcons Et Les Filles (All The Girls And Boys), the French singer-songwriter and fashion icon discussed the popularity of different English artists in France. Cliff Richard, whom she liked very much, was very popular, but while the French were aware of the Beatlemania phenomenon gripping the UK, the Beatles’ music was not as well-known in France. They were, however, breaking through: She Loves You was a popular track, and their upcoming gig at the Paris Olympia (which Hardy said she would be attending) was sure to raise their profile.
