Summary: French Songs Series - Les Chansons françaises Welcome to this intermediate FRENCH ETC. Podcast called ‘Les Chansons françaises – French songs’, where you can learn every day French every day and learn new vocabulary and grammar in the companion worksheet that you can get on the Web site. Today, we’re listening to Daniel Balavoine 1978’s song called ‘Le chanteur’ – ‘The singer’. Balavoine introduces himself as a young high-school boy who dreams of becoming a singer, a decadent star, and even a god – why not? He’s going crazy imagining his whole career, from childish hopes to the end of it. This song was a huge hit, and if you can stand the music arrangements coming straight from the 70s and the high pitch of Balavoine’s voice, you’ll be entertained by this classic from 30 years ago. And of course, it gives us another great opportunity to learn a lot of everyday French, because that’s what we’re all about. The companion worksheet has the song and it’s whole translation. It also has an extra list of vocabulary about songs, and th different uses of the words ‘bien’ and ‘tout’. Thanks for listening to FRENCH ETC.
