this is the yé-yé/chanson thread, you guys

(1/3) > >>

20 jazz funk greats:
okay. so for those of you who are not familiar with the genre at all, look at this article please. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yeye

people who already listen to this stuff, let's discuss how great it is!

ps- yé-yé does not HAVE to be french, and this is not a thread where we discuss mainstream french pop like kate ryan. (who covered france gall's ella elle l'a, and a few other Things)

JD:
Les Breastfeeders are so great

KharBevNor:
Boyd Rice is pretty obsessed with doing slightly creepy chanson covers.

Spell - Seasons in the Sun

Giddle+Boyd - Bonnie and Clyde


Also, I am pretty into Chanson and also maybe I suppose ye-ye, though It's only something I really listen to on last.fm similiar artists radios. My favourites are (very obviously) Serge Gainsbourg, Jacques Brel, Léo Ferré and Jacques Dutronc plus for ladies like Brigitte Bardot and Jane Birkin obvs.. Anyone got some good places to go from here?

Re: Les Breastfeeders - Funny Funiculaire

Johnny C:
les breastfeeders are just quebecois garage rock they're not yé-yé or chanson like at all
