which witch?
today i was listening to alex beaupains new project - music inspired from some found photos called 'le gens dans l'enveloppe' on which was a song i instantly recognised as vanessa paradis sang it on tv (see below) when she was very young! it's a song from a childrens musical, well known in france called 'emilie jolie'. anyways, after a bit of reading up i discovered that FH was also on the soundtrack. a nice song too - very fitting with her other late 70s work. enjoy x2!

if you listen - saturday
i was given the midnight blues 68-72 cd for christmas and on its first listen i was bit underwhelmed. but repeated listens have proved what a great collection it really is. english language songs - mostly familiar songs but a few of them were brand new to me. i''m going to post just a few of them over the next few days to give you a taster of the album - but i defo recommend getting it for your collection.

bye bye stone
it's clear from the single cover that the stone we knew and loved was disappearing into a more mumsy, less rolling stone (thanks eric) - but she's still sounding good on this song from 71. this is possibly her last song worth listening too (feel free to correct me if you disagree!)

don't call me jocelyne
you are probably already familiar with the a-side, written by gainsbourg, but the b-side )not written by s.g.) is worth checking out too as it still has a wonderful 70s serge sound to it
