french connection

hi All,

hello, did you miss us? :P we have been away a long time, but we promise, this time we will update regularly :) today i bring to you a very talented french artist.

the first time i heard this artist, i was standing at work when the office was half empty, it was dinner time. my boss, Dave, handed me his ipod and said listen to this song. and suddenly the piano played loud enough to drown me into a surreal sound of calmness, and smiles :) i was tapping my foot, smiling and everyone did stare at me. :P

so here, i present Cœur de pirate, stage name for Béatrice Martin. she is one of those talented young ones that we are oh-so-very-jealous of.

the first song i heard, that made me smile away to glory, even though i have/had no idea what she was singing about was Comme des enfants. originally a pianist, her use of the piano in this song is just right, not too much, and not too little. her voice is soothing and you want to exploring her music. Dave also found me a remix of the same song, i think ill let you listen to that and let you form your opinion. personally i loved it, must listen remix.

another must listen track is Francis. her voice and the piano are like a couple in love, and that makes listening to her that much more enjoyable. and knowing me, i always prefer the live versions. this is where you can see her getting up close and personal with her music, her fingers dancing on the keyboard and she is adorable :)

Pour un infidèle features another beautiful voice of Julien Doré, the mix of his and her voice is perfect. its a fun song and the video is made in b/w, with a feel of the Beatles-madness of the crowd. must watch/listen.

here is the link to her website - http://www.coeurdepirate.com/
