A gauche, Renan Luce, français, breton, chanteur-poète, récent sur nos scènes, admirateur de Brassens et de Nougaro - dont il a repris pour nous Une Petite Fille -, timide comme sa dernière chanson Aux Timides Anonymes l'affirme, accompagné de musiciens au style "barbe de la veille", surpris comme lui qu'on leur réclame des chansons - Anne et moi, fan de la première heure, scandions "La Lettre !" avec une poignée d'autres admiratrices.
On the right, Michael "Jude" Christodal, American, songwriter and talented singer, amazed us with his voice, alone on stage with two guitars and a piano (for The Asshole Song), sure enough of his popularity amongst the French public (he signed with Naive records in Paris for his latest albums) to let the audience choose the next song, several times: I do was unsurprisingly demanded, but also some others like the Break up song.
Two music vids: Ayo and June singing Joe Cocker and it's brilliant, and Amy Winehouse whose albums are just getting released in France.
I discovered a singer these days: Jude. There is this song, The asshole song, for instance: it's really beautiful. Takes my breath away each time. It's something great with English, the way the word sounds soft and mild. Take a French translation, it would feel ridiculous - and a German one would be harsh (who remembers this song we used to move our body on when we were 16?) In English, it's sweet and the song makes you cry.
