French-English Songs to Listen to
apart from a pair of isolated songs from a while ago ( at the end of the tilt ), I think I started to be aware of this blend of speech with Mika ’ mho hit “ Staring at the Sun ” in 2015. If ever there were a polyglot, it ’ south Lebanese-born british singer Mika. He speaks english, french, spanish and italian fluently and some Mandarin and Arabic thrown in for estimable measure. Mika is huge in France and acts as a coach and mentor on the french interpretation of The Voice. Bizarrely while in Italy recently I happened to flick on the television receiver to see him presenting an agonizingly awful game testify in the nude ! ( Yes truly ! )
The next song I ’ ve choose has a personal connection and a associate back to Mika. At only 16 years old, Louisa Rose was a player in The Voice, on Team Mika, while at school with my son, The Teen. here she sings with french singer Brice Conrad in a Franco-English pas de deux “ Hands are Shaking ”. following up, another The Voice player Franco-Israeli Amir, who besides went on to represent France in the Eurovision Song Contest. I don ’ thymine like much of his music but I do like this one, “ J ’ ai cherché ”. ( As a reasonably irrelevant digression, this class another 16 year old kid from The Teen ’ s school was in the semi-finals for Eurovision, it seems to be producing some pretty good singers ! ) And however another contestant in the semi-finals for Eurovision, Franco-Australian Malo ’ with “ I believed ”. “ Chou Wasabi ” by Julien Doré ft. Micky Green. And would you know it, Julien Doré is the achiever of Nouvelle Star, the french equivalent of The X Factor…. “ Streets and Stories ” by french popular couple Part-time Friends French-American duet Freedom Fry with “ Shaky Ground ” “ Dreamin ” by Frenchie Damien Lauretta ( an X Factor participant ! ) “ Open Season ( Un Autre Saison ) ” by australian singer Josef Salvat, a francophone who, having lived in Paris as a adolescent, constantly wanted to sing in French. Et voilà ! ( This is not his only one in french ). “ Nation ” by french singer Tibz belgian singer Angèle with “ La Loi de Murphy ” canadian artist Peter Katz ( with Rémi Chassé ) “ Brother ”
“ Loving Game ” by Canadian singer Peter Peter “ Sur lanthanum Lune ” by belgian singer Milow “ C ’ est lanthanum Vie ” by malian singer Inna Modja french group Diva Faune “ Shine on my Way ”
Some Older French-English Songs
And ultimately those early French-English songs. This is credibly the inaugural one I was aware of “ Help Myself ” by Gaëtan Roussel from 2009. And besides from 2009, Lily Allen ’ s french version of “ 22 ” with Ours. What do you think of these French-English songs, do you like any of them ?
