[TOMT][Music] a french song I heard on the radio

Open

I heard an older french song on the radio about a week ago. I could have sworn I sound hounded it but I guess I didnt as it's not in my history.

It sounded older. Maybe 60's or 70's based on the production. But you never know, could be more recent. It was fairly fast paced. Unfortunately I don't know any of the words as I don't speak French. However the word Garcon was used a lot. May have even been in the title. The vocal delivery for some parts of the song could be described as talk singing, and other parts had a lot of note variations. A very all over the place kind of song.

Google hasn't been much help as all I get is kids music and dreamy pop songs

I know this is a long shot but I'm hoping someone here can point me in the right direction.

Yeah I came across this one. It's not it. Too dreamy and slow

No specific song comes immediately to mind, but the talk singing sounds puts me in mind of Jacque Dutronc so maybe check out some of his songs.

Female singer I'm afraid

À cause des garçons ? It's actually a female duo.

Very catchy but I'm afraid that's not it either. This has more of an 80's sound and the song I'm looking for has more like a 60's/70's sound.

That's a lot closer but not the one I'm after. I would say it's not quite so pop.

Sans contrefaçon - Mylène Farmer ?

It is from the 2000s but could it be Koxie - Garçon ?

Negative. This actually sounds a lot like skinamarink, which is like way early 1900s I think?
