CHRISTIE LAUME - QUAND ON S'EST DIT TU
she almost sounds like a girl group in this song - you'd be forgiven for thinking it was les parisiennes or similar! thanks to frans again for this one!
ok - so my christie collection isn't yet fully complete - c'mon guys help me out! i still need:
cette plage deserte sur mon petit nuage amour toujours et cie mais parle moi d'amour
CHRISTIE LAUME - CE QU'IL FAIT CHAUD
she couldn't be any more bardot if she tried on this track. you can almost visualise her singing this while rolling around in a bikini on a st tropez beach. you will love this one!
CHRISTIE LAUME - JE N'AI PAS VOLE CET AMOUR
we have frans to thank for this - another new - and fantastic song from miss laume. with more of a jazzy piano feel than we are used to - yet it still retains a funky vibe.
CHRISTIE LAUME & RICHARD ANTHONY - COMMENT TU FAIS
great news; i have a few brand new christie songs coming up over the next few days!!! - starting with this duet which featured on a richard anthony 1967 e.p. - it is their wonderful version of the nancy sinatra & lee hazlewood classic track 'sand'
PUSSY CAT - BA BA BOOF!
i woke up this morning, finally, some gorgeous sun streaming through the windows and i knew exactly what i needed to listen to - this classic track from pussy cat. marvy!
COSETTE - LE GRAND CHAPERON NOIR
massive thanks to erin for this - i'm sure we are all familiar with 2 of her other songs; idealisation and les cheveux dans les yeux, but can anyone help us complete the collection? does anyone have a copy of ballade pour un pourquoi? please help!
does everyone know about this blog except for moi?!
regular commenter and supporter of blowupdoll, darby has this lovely blog full of french filles that you all love. check it out - can you fille it?
JEANETTE - A HEART SO WARM AND SO TENDER
the very early 80's were a great period for her- so many of her songs around this time are just great. this is the english language version of her classic 'corazon de poeta'.
JEANETTE - I AM A REBEL
i love jeanette in spanish, i love jeanette in french, i now also love jeanette in english (with the exception of her 'love is blue' cover which is very disappointing). i hope you'll love jeanettes 'soy rebelde' in english too!
other vinyl i got in paris:
charlotte gainsbourg - charlotte for ever 7"
francoise hardy - j'suis d'accord e.p.
les gam's - il a le truc oui les filles e.p.
marie laforet - vol xi e.p.
adriano celentano - prisencolinensinainciusol 7" - if you don't know it - check it out here - it's amazing!
SERGE GAINSBOURG - MANON
i'd never been to his grave before - i totally forgot to bring him any gitanes too, but good to pay respect to the man who had so much influence on the many dolls we love. i am posting this song because firstly he is a genius and secondly because i think it is just beautifully sad
mordi as CHRISTINE LEBAIL - JE N'AIME PAS TES AIMS
the next few posts will feature a few pics from my recent trip to paris - showing you some of what i got up to and what vinyl i bought!
