10/10: La Musique


The ten best French albums of the decade were round up by ten (twelve, actually) FS-contributors, -regulars and -friends. You might have checked out the websites of the artists. Here are songs from the ten (twelve, actually) Number One choices. Here's to another ten years of great French music!

NOTE: All Files Are Down!

Lina - Redevenir Modeste (2003) (Sky's top ten)

Coralie Clément - Salle des pas perdus (2002) (Guuzbourg's top ten)

Arno - Lola, etc. (2002) (Maks' top ten)

Calogero - Pomme C (2007) (Mordi's top ten)

Encre - En ciel ouvert (2002) (Jan-Willem's top ten)

  1. I can't find the Arabesque-album by Jane Birkin in the lists. Is there a good reason? ;-)

  2. Why is it that if you make a list of no matter what, the first response is always: why isn't this person/that thing not on it?

  3. Guuzbourg, all the 10/10 lists are a fantastic help to those of us starved of French music in North America. I know of some of the people in the lists and will explore the others... great work.
