Salvatore Adamo (pop, Europe, French, quote, songs)

I'm not sure if anyone is familiar with the work of Adamo, he was one of the best pop musicians, originally from Belgium, sang most of his songs in French (nine different languages all together). Apparently, he sold over 85 million records. (source: Adamo Homepage

Here's a link to listen to some of his songs:
Adamo Songs (click me)
I recommend Inch' Allah, La Nuit, and Tombe La Neige.

Don't lie, you just do it to keep us on our toes, and so you know we're really listening to the mp3s.

I've never heard before either but shall check it out now.

I'm usually not an advocate for creepy French music, but in this case, I am. So many drunken tearful nights, where I find myself foolishly singing Adamo songs, pretending like my French vocabulary goes beyond the word 'je'.

But yes if you must know, I do intentionally plot evil schemes to get vulnerable and impressionable music banterians to listen to my creepy music. And FYI, mission accomplished.
