Ohhh, nice choices. ♥

...And Daniel Balavoine... I like his voice. He has a really good singing voice. =] What other songs would you recommend by him? I'm asking because unlike Emmanuel Moira this guy has his music on iTunes so I can download it. =DDD

[hooves]

Oh. Also, your translation was good. ^_^

Thanks ! :)

Other Balavoine songs ? Oh boy, If I get started, I won't stop, there's so much awesome songs from him ~o~

But, for the sake of summary, here's a few of my faves :

* Pour la femme veuve qui s'eveille
* La vie ne m'apprend rien
* Vivre ou Survivre
* S.O.S. d'un terrien en détresse
* Sauver l'amour
* Petit homme mort au combat
* Le Blues est blanc
* Aimer est plus fort que d'être aimé
* Le Chanteur
* Lipstick Polychrome
* Vendeur de larmes
* Révolucion
* Je ne suis pas un héros (And please, PLEASE, Manna, listen to Balavoine's original version, not the famous version of Johnny Halliday, which is a shame towards this wonderful song !!)

And that's really a condensated list !
Really, if possible try to listen to all his songs. They deserve it.

Really, why do the best artist always have to leave us first and at a young age, leaving only the crappy ones ?! Balavoine, ZARD (Sakai), to only mention you, you and your talent will be missed. T_T

Heehee, thanks so much for the list!

I've found all of the songs on your list except S.O.S. d'un terrien en détresse, but I did find one title that looked really similar: Tous les cris les S.O.S.

The same song? :3

Anyway, thanks so much for the recommendations! ♥

If I have time before work (Got about 50 minutes, but the music's still downloading) I might be able to burn a cd of these songs... Which would be awesome. It'd give me something to listen to on the way to work. ♪

Hey, even if the use of samba is hilarious, you can't deny that song is very energetic. :p

While I'm at it, correct me if I wrong, but Captain Tsubasa was ultra-popular back then in Brazil, right ?

[acenoctali]

Ah ? So the infos I've heard about Captain Tsubasa were wrong ?
Thanks for correcting me. That was why I asked you in the first place, since you're Brazilian and thus the best placed for asking this. :)

(Saint Seiya was a huge success as well in France. But Captain Tsubasa's was just as huge, as well as Dragon Ball Z, Sailor Moon, City Hunter, and Fly - aka Dragon Quest : Dai no Daiboken -.)

I remember being a big Pornograffitti fan and then when their music got into popular animes, it made me REALLY hate Melissa because so many people were like "OMG I LOVE PORNOGRAPHYTI MELISSA IS THE BEST SONG" but couldn't even name one other song...

But now I've grown to like it because I got over that.

[acenoctali]

I do love Porno Graffiti myself, but not just for Melissa. I do love other songs by them, such as Go Steady Go ! and Mugen. :p
