Do you know the song? - Collectif Animale

And for once, starting with the lyrics? After all, French chanson is a language.

Through this spontaneous game, Louis Caratini offers an initiatory journey along the joyous and steep paths of songwriting. Trenet hangs out with the Surrealists, Gainsbourg slams verses by Verlaine. Perhaps this is what defines French chanson: language.

What if we played at bending the rules of the game?
No longer ashamed of not knowing, but proud to discover for the first time. To deconstruct general culture and realize that it's always particular. Perhaps our taste is the fruit of our upbringing or our social class?

But after all, "you don't choose your family, nor do you choose the sidewalks of Manila, Paris or Algiers, to learn how to walk". So why not play the listening game?
