French girl singers rule4
This CD is worth buying purely for the amazing Jacqueline Taieb's "Sept Heures du Matin" alone. In this she sings (in french) about going to school, wishing that Paul McCartney would help her with her english homework, brushing her teeth, and deciding which sweater she's going to wear today. All of this to a magnificent "I'm Not Your Stepping Stone" style backing, and with a line of "my Generation" thrown in for good measure.
Unfortunately the other tracks aren't quite as good, but some of them are still pretty fine e.g. Liz Brady, Elizabeth, Clothilde.
Very entertaining stuff. It's a bit of an acquired taste, but one worth trying to acquire. PS If you get the bug for french pop music look up the "Femmes de Paris" and "Pop a Paris" compilations that were released in France (naturally). These, and many other joys can be found at french amazon - www.amazon.fr. Great fun ordering, especially if, like me your French isn't great.

PS The Jacqueline Taeib track was also recorded in english and titled 7AM. That's how I know what it's about. Surely someone should re-release this!
