Lakeside Lair: As many Catholic families, we had the record of the movie soundtrack and because we were French, we also hadthe “real” Singing Nun album in French. While I liked the movie soundtrack, the record we played the most was the French one. (via Cosmos)

The Singing Nun was Soeur Sourire (Sister Smile), a Belgian nun who became an unlikely chart-topping folk star in 1963 after recording, "Dominique" to help raise money for her Dominican order. She later left the order to run a school for autistic children, and tragically committed suicide in a pact with her long-time companion when the Belgian government came after her for taxes on the record's royalties - all of which had been donated to the convent.
