Frères Souirires (2): Jeremie Kisling


First guestpost (one of many) in the Month of Male is by Soundofmusique, about Swiss wordsmith Jéremie Kisling:

Jérémie Kisling is just someone special and I'm very proud to introduce him on this blog. Before I give you more information about his music, I need to warn you. If you are a woman, you'll fall in love automatically of his romantic and childish attitude. If you are man, try not to be jealous and learn all the good tricks this man can teach you about girls! Yes, Jérémie Kisling is the guy that girls want, and he's also boys' best friend! His debut album Monsieur Obsolète was a revelation in 2003: funny (not really in a Borat way), romantic (not really in a Julio Iglésias way), poetic (not really in any boy band way), singular (not really in a Michael Jackson way), melancolic (not really in a depressive way) and terribly melodic (so true).
It was like coming back to the playground of your childhood with a best friend (or a lover... or both). In 2005, with the second album Le Ours, he became the king of the spelling & grammatical mistakes. He was like a romantic dunce, lost in a zoo who sang beautiful fables about bears, swallow, monkey, blind dog... Last warning but not least : don't try to learn French with this album...It's full of silly (but concious) mistakes.
Here are the rtwo songs I've chosen to introduce his music. The first one is an acoustic version of a beautiful song, Les étoiles (from Le Ours), and the second one is an unreleased song, Le chat (originally taken from an untraceable swiss edition of Monsieur Obsolète).
Welcome to childhood again...
