"Parlez-moi d'amour" is a song written by Jean Lenoir[1] in 1924 originally intended for Mistinguett. Lucienne Boyer was the first singer to record the song in 1930, and she made it very popular in France, America, and the rest of the world. An English translation was written by Bruce Sievier (1894, Paris – 1953) and is known as "Speak to Me of Love" or "Tell Me About Love".
It was also recorded by Dalida in 1961, and it features her 1961 album, Garde-moi la dernière danse.
Caterina Valente recorded it in 1960, but she sang it with a very special timbre.
