Suite Sud-Armoricaine is a bawdy Breton song in Breton, popularized by Alan Stivell in the 1970s. It is the only song in Breton ever to make the number one chart spot on French radio Europe 1.[1] The lyrics are from the Pardon Speied (the Pardon of the village of Spézet) date from 1950s and they are in the public domain because the author is unknown.[2] The song is originally a traditional Breton musical air.
