What Are You Listening To?

[Sylph]

I said that? Where? Really?

I'll give it a listen, though this first single isn't giving me much hope...

BTW, how do you and Lara Fabian and Hélène Ségara go along? Just interested.

You did. I'll try to find, ut you were surprised she was such a huge star thru the 90s and seemed to not realize why the Madonna comparisons--internationally few other women have sold even close. Sylph--I pay a lot of attention to your posts (that sounds kinda stalkerish lol) so trust me...

I love Helene, I only know some of her singles though. Pausini I only know two songs--I like them. When it comes to franco ladies for me it does tend to be Mylene/Zazie centric.

[Soapsuds]

I love Pausini's music. I have several of her CDs. I got into her cause of the telenovelas. Currently listening to "Hip to be square" by Huey Lewis and The News..it was always called the gay song at our school. If you sang it or loved it you were gay...haha....no wonder I loved it...lol

[bellcurve]

Emotions(the album) was so underrated. A bit overproduced, but a victim of an overeager Mariah and poor single choices.

[EricMontreal22]

Yeah i thought it was a good mix of uptempo tracks (produced by C+C Music Factory of course just before David Cole died of AIDS) and ballads. Love The Wind and Till The End of Time too.

[bellcurve]

Till the End of Time was beautiful. Probably my favorite of all her ballads. That was slated to be the next single, but they shelved it for the MTV Unplugged Disc.

This was #1 on the German Singles Charts two weeks ago (the first time a song entirely sung in French has reached the top spot since the late 80s):

My favourite from this year's Melodifestivalen was "Kom" by Timoteij:

And I'm still mad that this song didn't win the Finnish pre-selection (however, I've grown to like the winner, "Työlki ellää" by Kuunkuiskaajat):

When everything is lonely I can be my own best friend

I get a coffee and the paper; have my own conversations

With the sidewalk and the pigeons and my window reflection

The mask I polish in the evening, by the morning looks like [!@#$%^&*].

And I know you have a heavy heart; I can feel it when we kiss

So many men stronger than me have thrown their backs out trying to lift it

But me I’m not a gamble you can count on me to split

The love I sell you in the evening, by the morning won’t exist.

This song is BEAUTIFUL! Can I marry Conor now?

Growing quite tired of the theatrics, but loving Alejandro by Gaga right now.
