Typical French Music
Typical French Music is sentimental and heavy on the lyrics. The typical French music is easily identified often by the extensive use of accordion, harp, flute and fiddle, but also by its intense mood which seem to project itself into the listener. ListWoo gives you the top ten best songs ever written in French music.
Typical French Music has a very special tone. It is often very sentimental and the lyrics are much more important than the melody. Typical French Music is often performed with the use of typical French instruments like the accordion or the fiddle, but even today's rap - and the new types of French music influenced by Arab and African sound - stay true to the sentimental or disaffected use of the lyrics. France is the only European country where national music is still predominant to foreign music, and the French continuously insist on singing in the French language at the Eurovision Song Contest despite obviously loosing votes to all the countries which people do not understand the French lyrics. ListWoo has collected the top ten songs in French music ever composed and offers you the opportunity to cast your vote on the very best one.
