GtrPlyr Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 wow! Jacques Dutronc is damn damn good. i just ordered his first 2 albums, hearing this on youtube won me over:I love the diversity of Dutronc's music: garage rock, psych, pop... You can't go wrong with those first 2 records NP: Ride - Nowhere: 20th Anniversary Edition Link to post Share on other sites
Synthesizer Patel Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 I've never looked into translations. I like being completely unaware of what the songs are about. My dips into foreign language are limited to this French stuff, some Brazilian music, and Gruff Rhys' Welsh songs, but I like the idea of words sometimes being pure sound with no meaning. oh, yeah i agree i'm not really interested in that either. it's just that i instantly recognized the melody of flowers in the rain and the bee gees massachusetts, and le martien i assume means the martian so thought it was weird he'd written a new song around the exact same melody. I love the diversity of Dutronc's music: garage rock, psych, pop... You can't go wrong with those first 2 records from what i've heard they definately sound like they're going to be good. i would have liked to pick up the next 2, but they are a little bit too expensive. the others were only £5 each including postage.

Shakespeare In The Alley Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Post thoughts on those Dutronc albums when you get them. I youtubed him and played a few tracks and really liked them. Link to post Share on other sites
Artifice Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Much better than I expected. Just my first listen, but so far I like it quite a bit. Link to post Share on other sites
