One of my favourite French artists is Calogero. I already recommended his recent single Je Joue De La Musique, and even made album track 1987 Wildcard without it being a single.

Both songs are taken from Calogero’s most recent album Liberté Chérie, which sold over 175.000 units in France alone so far, and has just been re-released in a Deluxe Edition. It features seven additional tracks: an Extended Version of first single Je Joue De La Musique, a new version of second single On Ne Sait Par Coeur (now featuring Clara Luciani), a piano version of third single Fondamental, three songs recorded live in the famous Abbey Road Studios in London, and – best of them all – one brand new track…

La Vraie Vie was co-written by Colagero’s wife Marie Bastide and finds itself somewhere halfway pop, rock and French ‘chanson’. The track criticizes our modern day hyper connected society and calls upon more personal contact. An irresistible song!
