Comment:
"There are moments in all of us, or shall I say some of us, that must be lived in French," wrote Djuna Barnes. And because of this necessity we find moments lived in French throughout the globe: America, England, Germany, Brazil, Kenya, Norway, Japan...This is a 2 CD collection of French moments in song - "Oui Non" being a compilation of songs sung by native French singers, be it in Parisian French, Canadian French, African French or Creole French, and "We Know" being a selection of songs sung by visitors to the French language be it in fluent Francais or in barbarized Franglais.
And style? There's plenty of it - from 60's French pop to reggae to folk to avant garde to Breton to electronica to zydeco. This is a compilation that has been 6 months in the making - and I hope that it shows!

Feedback:
Wow...as a former French student, I salute (or is it 'salut'?) you. Wow.
Merci, Sir Usurp! As a former French student you probably also noticed that I couldn't add proper accent marks on this board... quel dommage!
i like these two cds a lot, i wish i had something more profound to say but unfortunately i don't have the ubrella of knowing french to hide under. great concept though, nice work
i guess i don't have the UMbrella of english to hide under either...
TrFs bon monsouir! TrFs bon!
