Non, je ne regrette rien - Edith Piaf

What is an original Dutch copy of 'Non, je ne regrette rien' ('No regrets') by Edith Piaf from 1961 worth? I don't know, but I was very surprised when I saw this 50 year old single in the bargain bin. The track was composed by Charles Dumont, with lyrics by Michel Vaucaire. It was written in 1956, and Edith Piaf's 1960 recording is the best known version.

The song was a Europe-wide success, even in non-Francophone countries. In the Netherlands, the single was a number 1 hit while it stayed in the (monthly) chart for 10 months.

My collection: 7" single no. 4526
Found: Any old time, Amsterdam, January 30, 2010
Cost: 0,1 euro
Tracks: 'Non, je ne regrette rien', 'Les mots d'amour' / 'Jerusalem'
