Salut tout le monde!
Hi Mom! I’ve arrived, safe and sound in snowy Metz to finish work. Then play! Off to Geneva on Wednesday and then to Paris a few days later where I will remain until the second. There’s snow everywhere! Glorious. I can’t stop listening to:
- Charles Trenet - Que reste-til de nos amours
- Edith Piaf - Sous le ciel de Paris
- Camile - Baby Carni bird
- Brigitte Bardot - L’appareil a sous
- Josephine Baker - J’ai deux amours
- Maurice Chevalier - Ca sent si bon la France
- Amelie-les-crayons - Ch’veu blanc
- Jeanne Moreau - Le tourbillion
- Eartha Kitt - C’est si bon
- Edith Piaf - La vie en rose
A sampling of the mix I made on the plane. I had to. It’s just TOO appropriate. Although, going by the icy landscape, Bon Iver or Sigur Ros would be appropriate and less on the nose. Gonna go to bed, even though it is nowhere near bedtime in Los Angeles. Otherwise, I’ll sleep through all of Sunday. Goodnight. Bonne nuit. Will likely be absent from writing for a few days!
It’s time to start checking my flight status before I leave the house.
In the lounge. This is my lounge mix.
