[Bigboote]

This is a French band although the lyrics are in English:

 

[Bigboote]

And here's the opposite -- an Anglophone Canadian singing (his own song) in French (my absolute favorite French-language song):

 

[ShmiCO]

Another French-Canadian song. It's my favorite contemporary song in French.

 

[Hoops66]

Edith Piaf "The Little Sparrow" with one of her best songs, here with translation, and the passion she was known for.

This song is from the soundtrack to the movie "A Simple Favor," which I think came out around 2018. Blake Lively played a shady character who loved French music from the '60s. There are two versions of this song in the movie; this is the original (oldest) version of the song:

This version is also in the movie, an updated version.

Favorite French? Easy one, the reason we have voices..

 

[AmeriConn]

Frere Jacques

[BRS24]

Love Christine and the Queens, especially the French lyric songs, and although I don't understand them, the music flows nicely.

I’m in France. I’ve heard this song in the car several times. A modern take on 60s and 70s French pop music.

 

[McFly]

Noirwestern, thanks. Wonderful performance. If we include opera, the possibilities are endless.

 

[Waquoit]

Noirwestern, thanks. Wonderful performance. If we include opera, the possibilities are endless.

You reminded of my favorite French instrumental. It combines the music they play while The Bad News Bears are screwing up with an old STP commercial. That's a lot of music contained in 2 minutes.

 

[Fairfield_1st]

I don't know any. Not sure if that says anything about me. Uncultured?
Best I can do is songs with a small amount of French lyrics.

[Cedar]

Claude Debussy is my favorite classical music composer.

 

[Cedar]

This song isn’t from France, but the studio version of the song was recorded in Quebec.

Rush — Entre Nous

 

[Cedar]

Julie Zenatti — Entre nous

Not my favorite French song, but a decent variation on the “Entre nous” song title theme.

 

[EasyEd]

Disney fan here:

I loved this band, (vastly underappreciated IMO) and their lead singer (Johnette Napolitano) has a great set of pipes!
