Delaney - La Nuit on a Toujours Tout

Delaney
La Nuit on a Toujours Tout

I don’t know a whole lot about French singer Christelle Delaney other than the information found on the always fabulous Pehr label, which is where this MP3 is located. Delaney sings sultry french pop songs but there is a underlying element of sadness underneath the semi-detached lyrics. In that way, she is sort of Nico-ish but her voice seems less low and gravelly.

I read she sings in both English and French, but “La Nuit on a Toujours Tout” is in her home language. She is backed by acoustic guitar and some interesting percussion sounds, along with the requisite playful strings near the end of the song. At first I thought that the quirky and playful nature of the french tunes that I’ve heard were that way just because they happened to be in indie french films, but it seems like this is pretty much a given elsewhere too.

She is actually on a different label in France called Lithium. I believe that this is her first album, but that she is working on a new one. I was hoping to find some more tracks online, but couldn’t seem to locate them so you’ll have be content with the one song.
