Retro Saturday: Liane Foly

What is it about France that they produce such great female singers? A few years ago I discovered Liane Foly who has such a rich, warm, jazzy voice. If I was able to sing, I would want to sing like her. I hadn't listened to her for a while but tonight just decided that I wanted to check her music out again. Here is "La Vie Ne M'apprend Rien":

"On A Tous Le Droit" is also one of my favourite songs of hers:

I would also urge you to check out her version of Daniel Balavoine's "Vivre ou Survivre"; sadly I couldn't find anything on YouTube, but if you have a look around the web you should be able to find it somewhere. (!)
