The sounds the guy makes in this video are freaky - to me at least.

Re: My Acadian Heritage
Well, I understood the drummer when he said "Hi, my friends. How are you?" But when they started singing, it was too fast for me. It's been 35 years since I've had French, but I took 3 years of it and still remember quite a bit.

Not to be confused with "Deliverance"

Real Cajuns cringe when cajun accents and culture are portrayed in the movies ... they miss it a country mile whether it's some "B" movie rotten tomato like the one you mentioned or a great actor like Dennis Quaid in "Big Easy."

My husband picks on the French all the time for not wanting to go to war. I say, "Hey!!" and he says "You're not French, you're Acadian!"

I sang it a lot growing up. I remember when my Mom taught me a prayer in French. My grandmother came to visit and my Mom, wanting to show me off, asked me to say it. I did and my Grandmother started laughing at me and said "no, no no!!" and tried to teach me the "right" way. I was less inclined to take French lessons from my mother after that!! LOL!  But, I can sing the chorus from Dominique by memory. It sounds French to me, but I can hear my Grandmother laughing in the background!!
