You should check out some of <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/french\/have-you-heard-ma-beaute-by-maitre-gims\/\">DJ Josh&#8217;s posts<\/a> for <strong>des tubes en plus<\/strong> (even more hits). I\u2019d like to share <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/french\/songs-in-french-stephan-eicher\/\"><strong>une chanson en fran\u00e7ais<\/strong><\/a> (a song in French) that I enjoy: <strong>une chanson<\/strong> from the singer <em>MIKA<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re unfamiliar with <strong>le star<\/strong>, he\u2019s not actually French! He\u2019s a British singer born in Lebanon, but he also sings in French and is a judge on <strong>The Voice<\/strong> in France. Out of his French songs, there\u2019s one that seems to always <strong>trotte dans la t\u00eate<\/strong> (get stuck in my head).<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Elle Me Dit<\/strong><br \/>\nShe tells me<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It\u2019s a simple song, but that makes it easier to sing along! The lyrics are about <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/french\/la-famille-dabord-family-first\/\">une famille<\/a> typique<\/strong> (a typically family) and the usual, somewhat stereotypical, problems each member of the family faces. It\u2019s a fun <strong>chanson<\/strong> that always leaves a smile on my face.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00c9coutez la chanson ici :<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\"
