    Ok, slightly off-topic thread...but never the less France related.

    What Frenchy music does everyone (anyone?) listen too?

    My personal faves: Serge Gainsbourg, Air, MC Solaar, Daft Punk, Indochine, Les Nubianes, and the singer from Ivy (who is amazingly hot) Dominique Durand.

    Not on the list: Johnny Halliday, the kid who sang that dumb dance song "Dur d'etre bebe"

    Re: La Musique

    Good choices, maybe you might try - M - (not a personal fave but I think it's quality French pop) ; Le Peuple De l'Herbe also sounds interesting. Alexis HK has good lyrics from what I've heard.


    God bless you.

    Jordy, guess what ? He's currently starring in a Real TV program and well, the guy has apparently learnt to shag since..."Dur dur de débander"...Hem...


    OK, I repost this, I'll phone them about having a little commission for that.

    Well Obispo maybe ... I don't know Calogero that well. Did he do that Zidane song or something ? Florent Pagny and Roch Voisine, don't like them.

    +1 for Indochine ... L'aventurier, class ! ... the comeback album was pretty good too (what's the name of the album can't remember) especially the first half.

    Anything by Dutronc is tops also. "Guerre et Pets" classic. even the 60s $hit is good.

    Early Renaud is also the shiznit.

    Re: La Musique

    Gainsbarre's "love on the beat" ... always fun to listen to at a dinner party.

    Charlelie Couture +1

    Alain Bashung +1 (that "pizza" cd is pure gold)

    Re: La Musique

    Don't listen to much music, nowadays,
    'cept for the classics...I have bunch of
    Gainsbourg, Leo Ferre, etc on this computer

    And here's an oldie- "hear-candy" because:

    _primo, I'm a movie-buff (this is from "Les choses
    de la vie", 1970)
    _ segundo,when I was a kid, she was still hot ;)

    http://francoise.dorleac.free.fr/romychansondhelenecomplete.html

    that's Romy Schneider, if you didn't know
    (with Michel Piccoli in this song)

    Re: La Musique

    Okay, this has been bugging me for some time. Maybe somebody here can answer this. Who sang the song, back in the 80s (I think), that went "J'aime regarder les filles qui marchent sur la plage"?

    Originaly, it's a Jacques Dutronc song, though,
    1967.

    don't think so ... pretty sure it's an original song ... but if you say it is, it must be.
