What about you ?

(mon premier topic anglophone, ça se fête ! )

[Sides]

I like the rap crew Assassin and also MCSolaar, but there are alot of good french band and acts out there, like air, phoenix, daft punk, and lots more. If the music is good i don't care where it is from.

[Kusa-San]

Yep Daft Punk is a really good band. It's the only electro band that i like . I love Discovery with song like One More Time :

[Narona]

I am very picky when it comes to french music, but I totally LOVE some groups/artists

I love Téléphone. It might be old and all, but there music is so good.

Here my favorite from them

Cendrillon by Téléphone

I also listen to Indochine. I don't like all their albums and songs, but some are really, really good.

Anne et Moi by Indochine (on a FF-X amv)

I also like some songs from Noir Désir.

Un Homme Pressé by Noir Désir (excellent song to listen to while going to school to pass the exams)

And some others song

Like Lambe An Dro by Madmatah

Gonna post more later XD

[Hellychan]

Hehe we do have great artists in France

MC Solaar must be one of the rare rap artist I like especially because of his elaborate lyrics ^^

Well I like all kind of music as well, as long as the rythm and melody are good better is when the voice is beautiful

Some French artists I like are:

Pascal Obispo:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3wH2E5itZSg
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dJDmXx9xFI

David Guetta:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=beGjncfEPt8
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQFjavLR52Q
His mixes just make me want to dance

Calogero:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YO1LqqP9w3I
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tmVvBTzkw7A
I just love the lyrics there

Kusa: the two titles you put from Goldman are my favorites from him

Narona: Cendrillon is a must

Same here. There is great music all around the world

Some French artists I like are:

Pascal Obispo:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dJDmXx9xFI

You reminded me that I like Florent Pagny. Because, if i'm not mistaken, Pascal Obispo wrote some songs for him, like this one:

Savoir Aimé by Florent Pagny

Narona: Cendrillon is a must

Seriously, that's one of the best song ever XD. Vive Louis Bertignac!

Since I am here, let's not forget some other good ol' french artists


Foule Sentimentale by Alain Souchon

Le Lion Est Mort ce Soir by Henri Salvador

And one of the most lively romantic song ever. It makes me happy just by listening to it.

Les Champs Elysées by Joe Dassin

Yep, definitely, we have great artists (more among the past generations though...)

[Kusa-San]

Narona : Yep, Cendrillon is a must have as Helly said. A really great song even if it's sad.

I like Noir Désir and Madmatah too

Pagny is good too and yes Obispo wrote this one for him. I'm not very fan of Souchon even if Foule Sentimentale is good.

Oooooh Le Lion Est Mort ce Soir, just *_________________*

And yes yes, Les Champs Elysées a great classical *_*


Helly : Yes, i like Obispo too. My fav from him is Lucie ! Guetta is good for dancing but that's all for me. And i'm not a fan of Calogero :/

For Goldman, i know it that's why i put them (it's a joke, i'm suprised myself )

Anyway thanks you two, i'm in paradise now *_*

Daniel Balavoine :

[Hellychan]

Narona: yeah it seems like the artists like to work together, well the result is great so no complain

Kusa: Yes, Lucie is just beautiful ^^ For some reason, as soon as I read Daniel Balavoine, I thought of SOS xD
Here's another one from him that has marked me forever:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZxnQToDF0U
Of course like for every artist, I don't like all of their work, just a few hits striked me. (The only exception would be L'Arc~en~Ciel, but that's another story...)
I have to admit, the 80's were the best

Helly : Ooh don't cry *hug Helly* Oh yes, Sauvez l'Amour from Balavoine is a great classic too, i love this song *_* And Emile et Image, just *_*

Same_Shark : Yep M is a great french artist ! He works with Vanessa Paradis for her Album But i don't really like his song.

And i like Mylene too ^^

Hmm funny, i could imaging that at least one person had posted the name alizee by now ^^, seeing how many pervs are on this board. But personally i would go for Vanessa Paradis ^_^, well she was fit when i was child and still is, imo. And of course Joe le taxi and Be My Baby were very catchy tunes.

Same here, i like Vanessa better than Alizé. Vanessa has a charm that many women don't have (due to his tooth among other). And i really like her style.

A really beautiful woman i think ^^

[Sides]

Well i was watching the celtic connection the other day on bbc, and there was a french band called Lo Còr de la Plana and they sang in occitan. It was kind of really entertaining.
They have a mysapce page on http://www.myspace.com/locordelaplana

And here their performance on celtic connection. (I'm not sure if the BBC blocks foreign IP, due to copyright reasons, so it may not work for some.)
celtic connection 2009 (BBC)

[Kusa-San]

Oh i don't know this group ! Thanks for the link It's quite refreshing

[sa547]

The list has someone missing: Edith Piaf... No, I Regret Nothing.

Any Larusso? Nearly 8 years ago we were dancing to her music at disco parties, like it was drifting a Peugeot across a wet parking lot at midnight, shifting gears and playing up the clutch.

[Kusa-San]

Well Larusso is not really a great star in France. She has had her succes period but that's all. Anyway i don't really know Larusso so...
