When it comes to the music of France one can write it has a certain joie de vivre, a quelque chose de spécial, a certain je ne sais quoi. Pronouncing it is a whole different matter. In Lesson 87 of the 101 Series we listen to music from France and make every possible human effort to enunciate the titles of the tunes. We take a chronological journey and start at the origins of French popular music. Our pronunciation does get better towards the end. Worthy of the Croix de Guerre.
