Fred Astaire or Jack Hulbert?
it should be noted that Fred Astaire was a great admirer of Jack Hulbert

Berthe Sylva -- On N'a Pas Tous Les Jours Vingt Ans (1934)
(It's Not Every Day That You're Twenty)

[video=youtube;BsKTLQdMl24]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BsKTLQdMl24[/video]

On n'a pas tous les jours vingt ans,
Ça nous arrive une fois seulement,
C'est jour le plus beau de la vie.
Alors on peut faire des folies.
L'occasion il faut la saisir
Payons-nous un petit peu de plaisir,
Nous n'en ferons pas toujours autant,
On n'a pas tous les jours vingt ans !


Translation
It's not every day that you're twenty,
It only comes just once,
This is the most beautiful day of life.
When one can splurge a little
A once in a lifetime chance
We do pay a little for our fun,
We do not always do as much,
It's not every day that you're twenty!
