So, JC over at The Vinyl Villain is making a bit of a playlist for his mate Comrade Colin from And Before The First Kiss, who is shortly heading over to Paris for a weekend. What a nice fella! Why does this concern me, you ask? Well, JC is looking for French-themed tracks to chuck on an iPod for Colin to take with him on his trip and I happened to have a few to add to what is becoming a jolly handsome looking list.
So here are the tracks I’ve managed to dig up – quite a few of them can be found on the soundtrack to the movie French Kiss. They’re all quite bewitching and when I was listening to them earlier today I found myself wishing that I too was winging my way to Paris.
Les Yeux Ouverts (Dream A Little Dream Of Me) – The Beautiful South

Ah, I have loved (and laughed about) La Mer since I first heard it during the opening sequence of Steve Martin’s movie L.A. Story. It’s worth renting it to see just the first 2 minutes, although it’s a personal favorite.
As for Kevin Kline, although I think he’s terrific, I’ll stick with Trenet on this one!
