"Je te veux" (French for I want you) is a song composed
by Erik Satie to a text by Henry Pacory. A sentimental,
slow waltz, it was originally written for the singer
Paulette Darty, whose accompanist Satie had been for a
period of time.
During the 1900's, Erik Satie produced several first
rate cafe songs and music hall pieces, which include
"Je te veux" - a graceful French waltz and "Le
Piccadilly" - with a strong Scott Joplin ragtime
flavour.

This song was registered on November 1902, but some
argue it had actually been composed in 1897. Satie
composed various versions of the Je te veux waltz, this
being the piano version.
When I heard this piece, I so wanted to practice and play it! When I PRINTED the music sheet for it, the transcription's TERRIBLE!!!! So many mistakes! I've seen free transcribed music sheets of MUCH better quality! No offense Michael Magatagan, but mate, that was REALLY poorly done! When the theme repeated on bar 23, was the chord supposed to be A11 or Csus2?
Okay, I'm gonna fix it myself! Can't believe I've gotten my hopes up for such poor quality! (~_~;)
