Anne Gabrielle returns to college, time to start posting again. Michel Delpech: Vue d'avion (1978)

As Anne Gabrielle returns to college it is time to start again posting songs. I have decided to backtrack and look at the songs I selected from the very start and choose other songs -not yet posted on the blog- by the same artists. That means I'll start with music from Un homme et une femme, Brassens, France Gall, etc.

Joe Dassin is the exception qui confirme la règle. Probably there will be more exceptions as I surf YouTube and discover songs I want to share. What about a song for today? Let me look. Here is Michel Delpech singing Vu d'ici (Vue d'avion)... that seems appropriate. Here on YouTube

Daniel Balavoine: SOS d'un terrien en détresse (Starmania - 1978)

SOS d'un terrien en détresse by Daniel Balavoine from the Rock-Opera Starmania (Michel Berger - Luc Plamondon)
