    A YT channel i subscribe to posted a bunch of French songs to encourage you to learn more. I really enjoyed the tracks. Started exploring more. It is helping my French, but i still have a long way to go.

      That is cool I listen to french songs sometimes in background but have not used them for intensive study. I think those song which repeat words/phrases alot help me remember the word/phrases.

      I like this artist, Stromae

      I listen to this playlist of various artists sometime.

      One of the first song I heard that got me interested in the language. Jacques Brel - Amsterdam another one of his song. Jacques Brel - Ne me quitte pas

      For variety, you can try opera as well. They drag out each word which I find interesting. Example Habanera de “Carmen”: “L’amour est un oiseau rebelle”

        I did have Ne quitte pas on my playlist, but it really dragged down the vibe. I have been loving Soldat Louis, Louis Attaque, dionysos, and GIMS. I will definitely check out your playlist

          Yea ne quitte pas is sad. That playlist was just something I found online, I think it is created by an online school. It is mostly happy songs, and fairly clear in their singing.

          I saw GIMS in that playlist.

      Songs are awesome! It’s so much easier to remember new words when they are a part of a nice song.
