I'm finally getting down to recording my first song in French ... and it is not one of mines !
For the last few days I have been working on an acoustic version of NE ME QUITTE PAS from JACQUES BREL which will be played for the first time at the opening of the DIOR store in the new ION ORCHARD shopping mall this Friday.
How did I get to work on this ?
I found out las week end (courtesy of FaceBook) that DJ Inquisitive was looking for some French music to put together a DJ set for the event and contacted him. In addition to sending him some tracks covering the last 40 years in French music (from Edith Piaf to Yelle through Francoise Hardy, the Rita Mitsouko and Noir Desir), I have also suggested to send him an exclusive cover of Jacques Brel's song. Which I now need to finish (and which I will off course post after the opening).
