Wikipedia article
"'Les Mmes de la cloche'" is a song which became the first studio recording made by dith Piaf. It was written by Vincent Scotto (music) and Andr Decaye (lyrics).
History
dith Piaf recorded the song "Les Mmes de la cloche" on 18 December 1935 at Polydor's Studio 2. The song was released as her first commercial record (a 78 RPM single) in 1936. The other side of the record was "L'tranger". (Actually, Piaf re-recorded both songs later, "L'tranger" on 13 January 1936 and "Les Mmes de la cloche" on 24 March 1936, and some pressings of the single used the new versions.)
The 78 RPM record with the song became a big success.
