it's getting better
i wasn't really that into karine until i got to hear her on repeat - then she really grew on me. so here is one of my faves - and if at first you're not impressed- jut repeat and turn the volume up!

france vid
i'm such a massive fan of this song - it's great to see her singing it, even if there is a bit of disappointment that it wasn't a dim dam dom spectacular style production.

dreams come true?
in my dreams this entire collection would be amazing. but it's not available in the uk. i would like a few issues if anyone can help! do i have any french visitors who'd help me out by getting me just a few issues (initials b.b. and ex fan des sixties)? i'd pay for postage too!!! anyone?!!!!
if you can - please email me (email address to the left)
bigger is better
i had to post this, partly due to fane reminding me what a lush track this (just listen out for her 'hmmmm') but also because tonight i'm going to the cinema to see 'plein soleil' as it has been re-released! how wonderful it will be to see marie and her big eyes and high cheekbones on the big screen!

question
does anyone have a good quality copy of france gall singing 'mes premieres vraies vacances'
in german?- i have a version (sent to me by abi) - but it sounds slightly too fast and fg ends up
a bit chipmunky!
boxing marianne 1
these wonderful pictures of marianne from salut les copains were scanned by
(diet) coke and sympathy - an excellent blog dedicated to 60s doll royalty marianne and anita pallenberg.

tamping, fuming, raging!
i'm fucking fuming! what the fuck is alizee doing guesting on this piece of musical shite from olly murs? he doesn't even know who she is! he's never even heard of her before! he's a retarded muppet with zero talent and a whole heap of over confidence in his ability. a smug little shit. and what the hell are alizees management thinking? this is the final nail in alizees coffin for me. you're dead to me alizee!*
