Weedon Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 I heard a nice little tune on the radio the other day, I think it was Franz Ferdinand and Ulysses, I did a search and came up with this, sung by Ride-On http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=1yI75QDF_8kDunno what it's about, doesn't sound like it is some bloke fighting off Siren's!

Weedon Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 [quote user="Frenchie"]Peter, that s such a lovely song you ve posted .Has the tempest started where you are ?Beethoven's tempest sonata[/quote]No....no temptress's here, at my age I wouldn't know which tempting bits to go for. Bit of wind though, no...not me..outside. Nothing like the 87 hurricane in the SE of England though, so all is well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weedon Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Frenchie asks whether I know of France Gall in the UK?Sadly, my education is a bit lacking about French singers....Apart from Mireille Matthieu (sp)...Charles Aznavoice...Sacha Distel...Jacques Cousteau (Somewhere under the sea)...Maurice the horse rider...Edith Piaf and Gilbert who has a similar sound and style to Paulo Conte.

Weedon Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 [quote user="Âme"]Eh? It says that song came 4th, but then how could you be expected to remember, it's soooo long ago. [Www]http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=S_Iu0wzotvMFrance won the year that I was born, but shared the glory. Those outfits! Lulu must have been responsible for the idea that girls with red hair should never wear pink. [+o(][/quote]Just a few observations on that clip. Who made that poor kid wear those short trousers in 1956? I remember Gigliola Cinquetti (who?) in 1964 and that Spanish girl must have taken some time to learn the words in 1968.I must get out a bit more I think.
