god my husband won't shut the hell up

Listening box:

Autour De Lucie – reminds me of the Cranes or Slowdive …
Benabar – a hip, modern version Jacques Brel while not as angry… Y’a Une Fille Qui Habite Chez Moi is specifically a great song.
Edith Piaf - you know, La Vie En Rose
Isabelle Boulay a nice Québec girl who sings sad, sad love songs.
Marc Lavoine - the Rod Stewart of France…
Vanessa Paradis - who I’m only just getting used to listening to

I’m in love with French music, specifically Thomas Fersen I barely understand his songs but I know he’s an excellent song writer and I know nothing of France but I sure do know that he is a great underground sensation and he’s coming to Montreal and Quebec in late January (for whatever reason is beyond me) but we can’t go… bleh.

I can’t understand why he’s not popular in English speaking countries… you should love him too.
