French Chansons with Subtitles
There was a time when French artists wrote and performed songs that touched the hearts of music lovers all over the word. Those days are gone - and so are most of those singers.
Fortunately, videos of their performances are still around. I've collected some of them here, making sure they're all subtitled, so you can follow the lyrics even if you don't master the French language. Enjoy!
Edith Piaf: Hymne à l'Amour
Jacques Brel: Seul (Alone)
Jacques Brel: Ne me quitte pas (If you go away)
Jacques Brel: Amsterdam
Charles Aznavour: la Mamma
Charles Aznavour: La Boheme
Charles Trenet: La Mer (The Sea)
Juliette Greco: Feuilles Mortes (Autumn Leaves)
Serge Gainsbourg and Brigitte Bardot: Bonnie and Clyde
Barbara: Le Bel Age
Mireille Mathieu: A quoi tu pense-dis
Noir Désir: Le Vent Nous Portera

Les chansons de Jacques Brel sont souvent sous titré par les hollandes… et c'est vraiment con!
Même les noms des personnages ce changent.
Eh bon :)

Happy to see that a foreigner is interested in French music! Too bad that there is nothing from the last 30 years. But for sure, the 50 and 60 were the golden age of chanson.
