Wow!


I haven't realized that there were so many French Disco performers.

_______________________________________________

On my side, I dug way way down my pile and found this one:

Identify this!

I don't think it has been posted yet.

Are there any connoisseurs in here that could give it a title?

My clue is: 1977

Hurry up before the girl voice's fade away (she sounds so weak)...

Bingo!

Let's say you had an advantage over the rest of the world but still, this was a tough one.

KDavid13, you know your stuff!

Some nice tracks indeed! Can someone ID some tracks for me?
-the 2nd track in the mix? (right
before Martin Circus: "J'en perds mes baskets"...)

-the track between Dalida: "L'Americana" & Alain Chamfort: "Manureva". It sounds like the title could be "Basket Star".

-the track right after Alain Chamfort: "Manureva"?

Thanks in advance

One more time!

Made in early 80's, this Frenglish song is made by a French speaking team (but anyone can unmask the "imposteur" just by their strong accent).

A bit of pronunciation exercises would have been a must before recording this song.



Let's see if anyone can guess the title/group...

BTW, NO it is not a local song.

That's funny: we were discussing this with a group of friends a few days ago.
I never realized one aspect of my favorite songs, something I usually take for granted: understanding the lyrics!! All the music I like & listen to is in languages I understand: English, French, Spanish, or Italian. I studied German for 3 years but didn't really learn much of it, so my experience with German tracks pretty much ends with "Din Daa Daa", "Der Komissar" & "99 Luftballons"... I tend to normally not bother, or be less patient with songs in other languages, simply because they mean nothing to me, literally!
Which says alot about the instrumental (or melodic) power of Anglo-American music, bought, listened to, and hummed to all over the world, by masses of people, among which many don't understand a word of it!!!
