This selection perfectly complements the theme of love and adds a touch of undeniable French flair to the video. The experience is further heightened by the passionate and lyrical voiceover delivered by Frenchman Pierre Maubouché. He eloquently expresses the parallel between the all-consuming nature of love and the relentless dedication required in the pursuit of athletic glory.
