When Monty Sunshine (Chris Barber Band) recorded this title for an LP (just 
clarinet and rhythm) they used the original French title. Shortly after the 
track was issued on a single with the same name. Two months later the tune 
was re-recorded, this time with Chris Barber on trombone. On the single 
record the title now was "Lonesome". Later the track from the LP was issued 
in the USA on a single with a piano dubbed in. And now again the title was 
changed: "I remember when".
So I suppose the retitlings were cooked up by someone at the record 
companies as the French title was too difficult for the English market.
