BAD BOY - Yseult
youtube
Quelqu'un frappe à ma porte Someone knocks at my door Je sens mon pouls qui s'accélère I feel my pulse accelerate Le temps s'arrête Time stops J'ouvre la porte, c'était l'amour I open the door, it was love Oui c'était lui que j'attendais Yes, it was him whom I was waiting for Lui, le feu qui me consume Him, the fire that consumes me Ce même homme qui m'allume The same man that lights me up Qui me rend chienne, qui me rend bête Who renders me a b*tch, who renders me stupid  Et qui m'éteint quand ça lui chante And who shuts off the light whenever he feels like it*
J'suis tombée amoureuse d'un bad boy I fell in love with a bad boy Me posez pas de questions Don’t ask me any questions Que ça vous plaise ou non Whether you agree or not** On s'aime We love each other Le temps d'unе chanson The time of a song J'suis tombée amoureuse d'un bad boy I fell in love with a bad boy Mе posez pas de questions Don’t ask me any questions Au fond de lui je sais qu'il m'aime Deep in his heart I know that he loves me Qu'il m'aime He loves me
C'est l'heure où le soleil rentre dans son nid It’s the hour where the sun returns in its nest Le ciel a changé de visage The sun changes appearance Tes mains se chargent de colère Your hands charge with anger Où est l'homme que j'attendais ? Where is the man I was expecting? Hier encore on faisait l'amour Just yesterday we were making love Aujourd'hui, je suis poussière Today, I am dust Même pas une larme pour ta reine Not even a tear for your queen En guise de pardon In guise of pardon
J'suis tombée amoureuse d'un bad boy I fell in love with a bad boy Me posez pas de questions Don’t ask me any questions Me croyez pas, je m'en fous Don’t believe me, I don’t care Il m'aime He loves me Le temps d'une chanson The time of a song J'suis tombée amoureuse d'un bad boy I fell in love with a bad boy Me posez pas de questions Don’t ask me any questions Qui de nous deux baissera les bras ? Which of us two will lower their arms? Qui de nous deux partira Which of us will leave Le temps d'une chanson ? The time of a song?
Notes:
* Literally, “And who shuts off the light whenever it sings to him”
** Literally, “Whether it pleases you or not”

📓 websites for french learning
Completely in French:
TV5 MONDE Apprendre le français - has a lot of good listening exercises
Le Point du FLE - redirects to a lot of good French content and comprehension exercises
RFI Savoirs - there are a few collections here that look interesting
Links I found on Quebec’s website:
Banque de dépannage linguistique (BDL)
Banque d’exercices de français (bank of French exercises)
For English speakers:
Lawless French - covers a large variety of basic subjects
Français interactif (from University of Texas at Austin) - includes a textbook
Tex’s French Grammar - grammar lessons and exercises with fun characters

🎧 french podcasts that i listen to
Podcasts for French learning listed from which ones I listen to the most to least:
Passerelles : a French podcast for intermediate learners (Apple/Google/Spotify) - I really like how laidback this podcast is and it feels more like a real podcast rather than something for language learning. It is completely in French however, so I wouldn’t recommend this for people just starting out with French. 
Duolingo French Podcast (Apple/Google/Spotify) - To be honest, I haven’t listened to the latest season yet (“The Rebel Thief”) but I like the little bits of culture I can learn from the episodes of earlier seasons.
innerFrench (Apple/Google/Spotify) - I just overall like the content from innerFrench :) The French is spoken clearly and a little slowly for learners, so it makes me feel happy about my comprehension.
Learn French by Podcast (Apple/Google/Spotify) - A lot of good content, but it feels difficult for me to choose an episode because there are so, so many!
Coffee Break French (Apple/Google/Spotify) - Another nice podcast that I listened to mainly when I was beginning to learn French, so I only really listened to the first season. From what I remember, I really like how they explained in detail.
French podcast companies in general that I have listened to a few episodes from and the titles of some of their podcasts (not listed in any particular order and these aren’t directed towards French learners):
Louie Media - Émotions, Le Book Club, Travail (en cours), Injustices
ARTE Radio - L’Insomniaque, Profils, Bookmakers, Un podcast à soi
Journal en français facile (RFI)
Feel free to let me know your podcast recommendations!

Discothèque - Janie
youtube
Pose ta cigarette, Put down your cigarette, Emmène-moi faire une ou deux pirouettes, Take me for one or two pirouettes Sur la piste de danse rien ne nous arrête, On the dance floor nothing stops us, C’est le slow qui commence en tête-à-tête. It’s the slow dance which starts the one-on-one.
On parle un peu trop un peu vite, We talk a little too much, a little fast, On part en impro, tu m’invites We improvise to leave, are you inviting me À boire tes paroles idylliques, To hang on every one of your idyllic words, Je pars en coma éthylique. I leave in a drunken coma.
Le soir, en discothèque, The evening, in discotheque, Il me fait tourner la tête, It makes my head spin, Le soir en discothèque, The evening in discotheque, Il me fait tourner sans cesse, It makes me spin endlessly, Le soir en discothèque ! The evening in discotheque! Ouh, Oh, Ohoh
On parle d’amour entre deux drinks, We talk about love between two drinks, Lequel de nous se noiera en public ? Which of us will get caught up in public? Lequel de nous finira pathétique ? Which of us will end up pathetic? En héros fantastique ? Or as fantastic heroes?
Changeras-tu de costume au lever du jour, Will you change your suit at dawn, Serais-je comme de coutume, encore faite pour, Will I be, as tradition, still made for Les trop courtes histoires d’amour ? Too-short love stories? J’avais pris un ticket pour un tour. I had taken a ticket for a tour.
Pour un soir, en discothèque, For an evening, in discotheque, Il me fait tourner la tête, It makes my head spin, Le soir en discothèque, The evening in discotheque, Il me fait tourner sans cesse, It makes me spin endlessly, Le soir en discothèque ! The evening in discotheque! Ouh, Oh, Ohoh
Et quand arrive le slow, And when the slow dance starts, Que je sens ta main dans mon dos, When I feel your hand on my back, Le DJ joue les mots bleus, The DJ plays the blue words, Les mots que l’on dit avec les yeux, Words that we say with our eyes,
Le soir, en discothèque, The evening, in discotheque, Il me fait tourner la tête, It makes my head spin, Le soir en discothèque, The evening in discotheque, Il me fait tourner sans cesse, It makes me spin endlessly, Le soir en discothèque ! The evening in discotheque! Ouh, Oh, Ohoh

Un, deux One, two Un, deux, trois, quatre One, two, three, four
Salut, je suis un espadon Hi, I am a swordfish J’ai perdu mon téléphone I lost my telephone Par le champ de tournesol By the sunflower field Il devient un champignon It becomes a mushroom
On sait que les champignons One knows that mushrooms C’est inutile, c’est pas bon They’re useless, they’re no good Si tu as envie d’appeler If you want to call Le mieux* de tous espadons The best* of all the swordfish
Oh ohh…
Salut, je suis un espadon Hi, I am a swordfish J’ai perdu mon téléphone I lost my telephone Par le champ de tournesol By the sunflower field Il devient un champignon It becomes a mushroom
Je m'inquiète pour tout le monde I worry for everyone Chaque garçon et chaque espadon Each boy and each swordfish Qui ne peut pas savourer Who can’t enjoy La joie parcours de téléphone The joyful experience of the telephone
Faites attention - je crois que le chanteur n’est pas francophone. Alors, les expressions pourraient étrangement formuler. Aussi, je devine un peu des paroles selon mon ouïe parce que je n’ai pas trouvé les paroles officielles. 
* « mieux » is usually used to describe an action, so the lyrics could mean “to call better than how all the other swordfish call.” In the case of “calling the best swordfish of all the swordfish,” it would be better to use « meilleur ». See more about mieux vs meilleur here.
N’hesitez pas me corriger si je comprends de manière incorrecte ! Don’t hesitate to correct me if I am misunderstanding this song!
