Et moi, et moi, et moi
- ... that Jacques Dutronc only got the opportunity to record his debut single because of an envious, disappointed and trigger-happy record company executive?

Article new enough. Long enough. And seems to comply with applicable policies. The hook is instantly attention grabbing and compelled me to click on the link (some reviewers would advice making it blander by adding qualifiers like "supposedly" etc; I wouldn't). Two suggestion though
- Replace jealous by envious in the hook (subtle difference)
- Mentioning that Hadi Kalafate also auditioned for the song before Dutronc, would further justify the "disappointed" part of the hook.
- Note: I read the reference supporting the hook in English (as translated by Google), so partial AGF applies. Abecedare (talk) 00:01, 16 September 2013 (UTC)
