Okay, so most of us don't know French. It doesn't matter. Lætitia's voice is pure gold here even singing obscure French poetry, and Mary's fills make the song complete.
This is "Cybele's Reverie" off of Stereolab's 1996 album, Emperor Tomato Ketchup. And Jules Holland was a twit even then, but he consistently does get great music onto his show, so I'll forgive him for that :).
