Projet Piano (12): France


Guestpost, this time by Jean-Luc, who contributes a lot of songs to this blog (thanks again, J-L)

The album Dancing Disco, released in 1977, was France (real name Isabelle) Gall's second collaboration with great composer Michel Berger. Believe it or not, it was also only her second album, since in the sixties and early seventies, she only released 45 rpms!!. The album is a concept album that tells the story of Maggie, who has got a boring job in a night club/disco (the Dancing Disco). One of the best songs on that album is the short, but sweet Quand on est enfant, with Berger on piano. See an English translation of the song here.

France Gall - Quand on est enfant
