I was walking along Rue Charlot in the third arrondisement of Paris when I stumbled upon a Sunday morning street market. As I turned the corner I encountered this man, surrounded by a crowd of people gathered to hear him sing Italian opera at Le Lutétia, a sidewalk cafe. He had an amazing voice and held his audience spellbound. I found a table, sat down, ordered myself a glass of French wine, while I watched in awe, as people spontaneously joined in on the familiar lyrics The crowd, presumably neighborhood friends, all gave him an overwhelming ovation, as he well deserved. I must say that this was one of my most memorable moments in Paris. Sometimes you just have to walk, walk and walk with no agenda because you'll never know what happy scenes you might encounter along the way.
I might add, parenthetically, that I have never encountered such a scene in any of my travels throughout Italy, a country I love. In fact, I rarely hear Italian opera, or any opera, being sung or played anywhere in Italy unless, of course, I’ve bought tickets to the opera. Unlike my travels to France, I only encounter pop American music while in Italy.

Alors portons un toast (à la bière, certes certes) en souvenir de ce qui fut la vie ouvrière d'un pays qui n'en finit pas de se tertiariser (qui a dit "libéraliser" ?)...

Confusion possible
Orchis simia est voisine de l'orchis guerrier (Orchis militaris) avec laquelle elle peut s'hybrider. Elle s'hybride également avec Orchis purpurea, donnant des individus dont les fleurs ont la forme de O. simia mais de couleur plus foncée, rappelant O. purpurea (Source Wikipédia).
Possible confusion
Orchis simia is close to the warrior orchis (Orchis militaris) with which it can hybridize. It also hybridizes with Orchis purpurea, giving individuals whose flowers are shaped like O. simia but darker in color, reminiscent of O. purpurea
"The night club was burning
From the torch singers song
And the sweat was floodin' her eyes
The catwalk squeaked
'Neath the bartender's feet
And the smoke was too heavy to rise"---- John Prine
