Maybe some day I'll do a deep @Rushmoras like dive into this groups albums.

 

They seemed kind of too intense/hard core for me as a teenager.  But maybe I've grown into a taste for them.  This song was pretty good

Too bad that Spotify (on Internet) for me shows greyed out all popular rap artists for some reason (as if lost licenses), I may be inclined to listen to some of the artists I know in passing (though, on app, they are all accessible, but I'm using the app for local artists discog [yah, I'm strange that way]).

After quite a deliberation in my mind was thinking to start Judas Priest, went a whole different route and chose Patricia Kaas.

I hate that song, and have from the moment it came out.  I don't really care for RHCP songs in general, but that's the only one I absolutely cannot listen to.

Been listening to Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter. I've never been a fan of hers, but I'm liking a lot of this album. It's shocking how much more interesting, fun, and creative this is than Taylor's new release.

Not sure it's fair to compare them like this. Two different people; two different albums. But they're pretty much the two most powerful women in music right now, so it's kind of unavoidable.

So, Sugababes - Too Lost in You was actually a remake of Patricia Kaas Quand j'ai peour de tout (from her fourth album "Dans ma chair" (1997)). The more you learn when you delve in to international sphere discog...

Damn, that was a good medley. "You Don't Own Me" mixed in with that worked really well. I liked the darker take on "Genie in a Bottle", too. She sounded great. 

Also, her backup dancers are amazing. Wow.

Sixth Patricia Kaas album "Piano Bar" (2002). It's a jazz/blues type slow song album, also entirely in English. Kinda eh in comparison to previous of her works. This song kinda reminds of Lana Delrey vibes (or vice versae considering that Lana came waaaaaaaay later)...

Seventh Patricia Kaas album "Sexe fort" (2003). Almost perfect. EDIT, also noticed that my Spotify library of her songs is now at exact 69 tracks. That's in line with this albums' title lol 🤣
