Young and stupid?
A bit late, but I figured I'd still put it up today:
The first track is by an extremely successful (in France) artist called Damien Saez, who's been around for a couple of years now. I don't actually like very much of his stuff, but for some reason the live version of "Jeune et Con" is, well, good. He got English musicians to come over, according to the DVD on his second album, so strictly speaking this is only half allowed here. But that's good enough for me! Anyway, the song is essentially about the youth being considered young (obviously) and "con" - which basically is, if you haven't somehow learned all of the French ones, a naughty word for stupid. It works well, and I like it, but not on the album, which is strange.
The other one is by the world-famous, CAPS-locked dEUS, also from Belgium, I figured if I mentioned them in the Ghinzu post I'd have to show you what all the fuss is about. Actually, almost certainly not about this post, because it isn't in their usual style, but for some reason I absolutely love it. Maybe it's the little fart sound he makes, or the drum beat in the background, or the howling, I can't quite put my finger on it (as it so tragically often is with these things). In English, but well worth the small download in my opinion. Don't be discouraged by this song if you don't like this song: they cover all sorts of musical styles, from Jazz to Pop right through to real wierdness - maybe for another time. Anyway, enjoy:
See yas all, now up to 36! Woo!
