Rockollection

"Recollection" was considered for the title but finally the song was called "Rockollection" (portmanteau of rock and recollection).^{[citation needed]}

The song is a nostalgic first-person recollection of what is presented as a typical 1960s French adolescence. While the story is sung in French, several English-language hits of the 1960s are used to illustrate the memories. An English^[1] and Spanish^[2] version were made by Voulzy, adapting the lyrics. Since its original release date, he has re-released the song several times in different renditions.

The single was an international success, reaching the Top 10 in several countries in 1977/1978.^[3]
