Singers like Camille, Benjamin Biolay and Vincent Delerm have revived the chanson.

But something as insignificant-sounding as an entry stamp will have enormous implications for Pakistan, and President General Musharraf, in the days to come.

And second, should the present parliament reelect Musharraf, or should that vote be left to a new parliament after an upcoming general election? Chaudhry's backers certainly want the courts to get back into the action.
