Song of the Day #3: Peter Sarstedt - Where Do You Go To My Lovely

A friend of mine is working on a short film that is based on this song. Lately, him and I have been working on a ukulele and accordion cover of it for the soundtrack to his film. There's something bizarrely beautiful and melancholy in this song. Some serious longing. The reverb drenched accordion adds this surreal feeling to the song, almost comedic. I think Wes Anderson nailed its mood in Hotel Chevalier. So please enjoy this track that has been forgotten over the years.
