Excuse me Edith Piaf but I think you have become a stereotype for Francophones. Something different, please!
I just spent an hour listening to some French songs on the Internet. I need some different stuff to listen to while working on my irregular verbs... that is, different from my Christmas collection from last year. It can't be anything I want to dance to because then I wouldn't be focusing on my task at hand while listening. (I don't dance in public anymore, there is no place around here to dance if you are over 30.)

Carla Bruni, Singer |
I like the soft crooning of a lot of the recently successful ladies. Today I chose a Canadian singer, Cœur de pirate aka Béatrice Martin. The album, just out, is also named
Cœur de pirate. Oh yeah, Carla Bruni has a new album out as well that should be easy listening,
Comme si de rien n'était. Being a Kindle fan, I ordered them up on Amazon.com. But I found my music on a site, Squido, under genre Pop. http://www.squidoo.com/french-songs-and-french-videos
It's a good thing I know there will be Christmas money in my stocking tonight.
