I do enjoy listening to oldies but sorry, I know very little about French music. Thanks for posting these videos. French is indeed a mellifluous language that sounds best when sung.

Someone here on wrongplanet posted a video of the current French pop singer Alizee.

Never heard of her before, but I went straight to you tube and became so addicted to watching the rest of her videos that now I am in rehab at the Betty Ford Center!

Cant understand a word that she is singing because Im not fluent in French, but I find her fascinating to look at.

Certes oui < & listening right now >

I like those 60's videos - thanks for posting TrainofLove!! Vintage French music is really nice. Just checking online and I found this le menestrel French phonograph.

And I still like Joe le taxi. Un peu sexy

I actually learn quite a lot about music and the arts from the Wrong Planet.

Henri Salvador does some pretty good songs when he isn't doing slightly racist/unfunny comedy:

Mind you, I did spend a bit of time listening to his comedy songs when I was trying to improve my French:
