Eh you old foggies

Superbus
Amel Bent
Kenza Farah
Keny Arkana
and of course the wonderful and weird Christophe Willem

French music did not stop with Edith Piaf, American music did stop after Motown died.

[Catel]

Goldman :cool:

I somehow fail to imagine how anyone can recommend Keny Arkana and simultaneously cite any of those other names, but to each his own...

you should also scroll back a few pages and you'll see that there's quite a generational diversity of music

I once heard that there were actually people buying some Lara Fabian and NTM records at the same time at Virgin and FNAC...

But being eclectic is a quality after all. ;)

This was my first ever experience with French music. One of my friends couldn't get enough of Alizee:

I'm also told there is a bubble song by her. :eek:

[sizal9]

Busy P and Mr. Oizo.

[timotheus]

Ahhhh Alizee....

Actually her Moi Lolita is very very catchy, so is her remake of an old France Gall tune...

Alizee - two thumbs up! :p

[Nanbawan]

Alizee - two thumbs up! :p

As long as it's just about thumbs... :D

[El-ahrairah]

Alizee - two thumbs up! :p

As long as we are talking about Alizee, she has a new album out. Some may look down on cheesy French bubblegum pop, but hey, French-speaking women are one of my biggest weaknesses, so I'll be adding the album to my French-hotties music collection :D.

[timotheus]

Three (3) thumbs up for Alizee :D

I think she will try now for a new "bad girl" persona; she has said that before.

What can I say, worked just great for Britney Spears :cool:

Edit: I hate the new song Mademoiselle Juliette ... meh

[Gnafron]

Young girls have read Simone de Beauvoir... :D

All of Superbus' songs are great. Seriously I haven't found one I don't like yet.

And Jennifer Ayache has to be the most beautiful girl in the world.
