I know that the record biz is struggling, that people won't buy cd's no more (if you want to read a funny story about how major labels did it to themselves, I suggest Dan Kennedy's book Rock On), but gawd, how can a talentspotter leave Audrey Maelis (real name Audrey Ismael) unsigned? Her song Baby Doll is sooo sexy, it tickles your ears the way a skimpy babydoll tickles a woman's skin. Or something. Audrey prefers us in the nude, by the way. She into the Sellaband thing too.
By the way, Baby Doll was recorded earlier by Iva Fruhlingova.
Audrey Maelis - Baby Doll
Audrey Maelis - La Paresse
Sounds quite like the same named song from Iva Fruhlingova, Czech singer singing mainly in French.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenIt seems I have to defend myself regularly lately for being the only loser who is still spending most of his money on cd's.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenBut...
Could someone please give this girl a recorddeal. I want to buy her record.

Hi...
BeantwoordenVerwijderenHey, I noticed you are a very knowledgeable person and decided to write you asking some suggestions on songs and music you know and you'd recommend me...
Actually, I have started listening to French songs recently.
Most of them are "trip hop", but I bought some collections such as Paris Lounge, and I "found out" some singers, like Benj. Biolay, Emilie Simon, Camille, Keren Ann, etc...
As I noticed your blog was full of musical details I was hoping to get some advice in order to learn more about these musicians, their musical style and so forth...
Unfortunately most of them are not known "here" in Brazil, Which makes it a little bit difficult to learn more about them...
I'm also listening to Rezillos and other bands like Joy Division, but I'd like to read a comment of yours in order to learn more about these "alternative" artists you've been showing in your blog, the songs, the themes they are used to handle...
I don't know, just sent you this message because (It seems that I'm lost, is it obvious to you?) I would like to see if I could find somebody (an experienced person) to share his/her opinions about this musical background. (And it seems that you have it!)
Greetings
Cris
