Those Were The Days
Set in Paris, The Leningrad Cowboys perform their version of the known song: A solitary man leading a donkey is turned away at a restaurant door, he and the beast walk down to “La Maison du Vin” where, despite a “no donkeys” sign, they enter and the man proceeds to feed the donkey. His care and feeding of the animal impresses the women singing with the band – she and the visitor connect, but who will watch the donkey if they slip away?
