Details: Amazon.ca Vanessa Paradis was 16 when, with this first album, she made a remarkable entry into the big leagues. Buoyed by the huge success of "Joe le taxi", which went so far as to prance to second place in the English charts, she continued her fruitful collaboration with lyricist Etienne Roda-Gil (Julien Clerc) and composer Franck Langolff (Renaud ), which fit the measure of his childish charm and his deliciously tangy voice eight new songs. She thus sings "Manolo Manolete", on bullfighting and the death of the matador in the arena, "M & J", the touching ballad celebrating the loves of Marilyn Monroe and John Kennedy, "Maxou", dedicated to James Dean, or even "Scarab", in reference to the ex-Beatles John Lennon. And captivates us with the dancing rhythms of "Coupe coupe" and "Mosquito". The intriguing "Joe le taxi", with a mambo tempo, is of course part of the trip. In the end, an album of a beautiful outfit whose diversified climates do not spoil the coherence. --Sylvie Devilette Product Description 1987 debut album for baby voiced French singer. Includes the hit 'Joe Le Taxi'.
