Entre Gris Clair Et Gris Fonce - Jean-Jacques Goldman

Advantages: Top quality pop-rock
Disadvantages: Only to those without an open mind

...is a tale of teenage impetuosity that every parent (and teenager!) will surely identify with; “Elle disait qui vivra verra, et moi je vivrai, vous verrez!” (She’d say that she who lives, sees, and *I* am going to live, you’ll see!). My favourite line of the whole album also appears here – I love it more for the shared delivery than the actual lyric: “Attend! Tais-toi! Mais pour qui tu te prends?” (Wait there! Shut up! And just who do you think you are?) “Fermer les Yeux” is the traditional passionate closing piece with Goldman at the piano, which this time tells of the obsessive relationship between star and stalker – the isolation and the desperation. This is where Jean-Jacques is in his element; the staunchest Francophobe could not fail to appreciate the depth of feeling... Read review

Advantages: The whole album is very good
Disadvantages: Lyrics in french !!!

...I invite you to discover what is to me the best album of the year 2000 from a french singer : “Marcher dans le sable” by Gérald De Palmas. If you like many other french singers like Jean-Jacques Goldman, you will recognize his style. Goldman brings his help to De Palmas for this third album, after a doubt period for this singer, in a song (the first single extracted from this album) : “J’en rêve encore”. You’ll find a bewitching music during the whole album which contains 12 tracks and about 45 minutes of music. Maxime Le Forestier, an other famous french singer (famous in France, perhaps in UK, I don’t know !!!), also brings his contribution in a track : “Tomber”. This album was nominated for the last “Victoires de la Musique”, the equivalent of your MTV Music... Read review
