"Cafe on the Left Bank" is a song by English-American rock band Wings from London Town (1978).
Background
[edit]"Cafe on the Left Bank" was partially inspired by a hitchhiking trip Paul McCartney took with John Lennon in 1961, during which they went to a cafe located on the Left Bank, Lennon was turning twenty-one, and McCartney was almost twenty, while Lennon and McCartney were served, they noticed armpit hit on their server, who was a woman, at which one of the two (not specified by McCartney who) yelled out "Oh my God, look at that; she's got hair under her arms!", which, according to McCartney: "The French would do that, but no British – or, as we would later learn, American – girl would be seen dead with hair under her arms. You had to be a real beatnik."[1]
