Always loved the French recordings of this French song. Liked those much more than the U.S hit, with an English-language translation altering the lyric's theme (was that old American pop recording a Bobby Darin hit?).

This from the Wikipedia:
""Beyond the Sea" is the English-language version of the French song "La Mer" by Charles Trenet, popularized by Bobby Darin in 1959.
While the French original was an ode to the sea, Jack Lawrence, who composed the English lyrics, turned it into a love song."
 
'' But I've got the power, and I've got the will I'm not a charity case I'll take those long nights, impossible odds Keeping my eye to the keyhole If it takes all that to be just what I am well, I'm gonna be a blue collar man''
