Music in French?
Scytale:
There's heaps of good French metal bands:
Blut Aus Nord anyone. Heavenly are pretty good for Power Metal.
I think Morte Incandescente are French
Then theres are the LLN bands like Mütiilation, Belketre, Torgeist, Vlad Tepes etc
The original post wanted lyrics he would understand and which were in French, whole reason I didn't post them to begin with.

Agreed.
Belle Epoque are a pretty excellent group, and you can download most of their work from their site

Rufus Wainwright sings in French a fair bit, and he sings in kind of a slow, drugged-out way so it's quite easy to understand. It all depends on what you want; are you looking for very Frenchy, smokey, chanteuse-singing-over-an-accordion streetcorner music, or something more contemporary? Folk songs and classical/renaissance music can be pretty awesome too - check out 'Je ne lose dire' if that's up your alley, the version done by the King's Singers is HILARIOUS.

Hell yeah! MC Solaar is CLASSIC French rap, I happen to enjoy Passi.
I absolutely love Calogero - awesome sound.
For cheesier stuff, Vanessa Paradis, Kyo ("Chaque Seconde,")
I absolutely love "Touche Pas à Ca" - which is French (Quebecois) "Can't Touch This." It's hilarious.
Serge Gainsbourg, of course, and Edith Piaf, who originally sung "L'Hymne à L'Amour," and "La Vie en Rose."
Ah screw it, I'll post my playlist of songs in French when my iPod comes back on. Long story involving a bad day.
Mandy:
Edith Piaf=the super-bomb. Talk about a chanteuse. She is THE chanteuse. I'm pretty sure all other chanteuses have to pay a $30 monthly fee to E. P.('s ghost) just to be a part of the club.
