French pop music is notoriously horrible. Which is why one of the biggest singers over here right now is actually Belgian. Stromae is not just big in France, he's huge across Europe, and chances are you haven't heard of him. We hadn't either, but are now a bit obsessed. The first video below for your viewing pleasure is for a song called Papaoutai which means "Daddy, where are you?". You can check out the translated lyrics here, but the video basically speaks for itself. It is absolutely beautiful. The next song and video I might like even better - it's called Tous Les Mêmes or "They are all the Same" (translated lyrics here). It's also fantastic, especially for all those dancers out there who find this kind of art electrifying (like me, obviously :)
