Some French songs to improve your listening to the language
If you want to improve your understanding, there are a lot of good French singers whose the songs are easy to understand. Here are the names of some very famous and very popular singers in France who sing quite slowly:

  • Jean-Jacques Goldman (he has a slight accent).

  • Michel Berger (beautiful songs and very easy to understand).

  • Daniel Balavoine (militant singer and easy to understand).

  • Jacques Brel, Georges Brassens and Léo Ferré, so-called "les 3 poètes de la chanson française" (the 3 poets of French music).

  • Claude François (dancing songs with very easy to understand lyrics, but above all very heady, so ideal for getting used to the language 😄).

Their songs are old but are very pleasant to listen to and the video clips and lyrics are easy to find on the Internet.

For example, here are some songs that should not be too difficult to understand:

  • Quand la musique est bonne (Jean-Jacques Goldman).



  • Au bout de mes rêves (Jean-Jacques Goldman).



  • Aimer est plus fort que d'être aimé (Daniel Balavoine).



  • Sauver l’amour (Daniel Balavoine).



  • La vie ne m’apprend rien (Daniel Balavoine).



  • Chanter pour ceux qui sont loin de chez eux (Michel Berger).



Here are some other examples of more or less recent songs:

  • Julie Zenatti - Les amis (very very easy to understand).



  • Manau - La tribu de Dana (this is a rap easy to understand but the singer speaks fast).
  • The song tells the story of a Celtic people who rebuilt themselves after a battle.


If you have difficulty understanding some songs or want other examples of songs that are easy to understand and in the style of music you prefer, you can talk about that on the discussion forums.

I just discovered Claude Francois. Very nice songs. I like Cette année-là and also the remake Ces soirées-là by Yannick 😄

Hey, I have already heard of Manau. But I didn't know the story of this song.
Thank you man!

There are other good songs from Manau. You should try to listen to them. 😉
