This band (Tee Set) had one Beatle-esque hit. It used to be on Youtube but was removed due to copyright infringement. Peter Tetteroo (lead singer) died just a few short years ago at the age of 55. He pulled off a good McCartney on this song. I hope some of you remember it. This is one of the bands who suffered in Hamburg just right after the Beatles. History shows those long torturous hours paid off in later years for some bands.
Tee Set
MA BELLE AMIE
Ma belle amie You were a child of the sun And the sky and the deep blue sea Ma belle amie Apres tous les beaux jours Je te dis merci merci You were the answer of all my questions Before we're through I want to tell you that I adore you And always do That you amaze me by leaving me now And start a-new Ma belle amie I'm in love with you
CHORUS Let the bells ring Let the birds sing Let's all give my substitute a big cheer Let the bells ring Let the birds sing For the man after him waits here For the man after him waits here
Ma belle amie You were a child of the sun And the sky and the deep blue sea Ma belle amie There was a time that you thought That your only friend was me You were the answer of all my questions Before we're through I want to tell you that I adore you And always do That you amaze me by leaving me now And start a-new Ma belle amie I'm in love with you

I've not heard the song, but there are definite lyrical nods to "Michelle".

I actually found a video of the band, this was some 17 years after the single came out, still you can hear the Mac-like vocals in part of the song.

Oh yeah, I see what you mean about the Macca vocal. Terrible Eighties outfits though!

Tee Set is from my native country (and almost but nearby town) and I was there around when this song came out. Never saw any Maccca or Beatles connection anyway. Interesting you guys abroad (from my point of view) see/hear these connections. Though, Peter for me always sounded a little like Steve Winwood in his Spencer Davis days.
