SEBASTIEN TELLIER to represent France at the European Grand Prix


France has always been a completely unique and different country musicwise. People like Serge Gainsbourg could only be Icons in a country like France (i often go to the countryside in France and i can have a long conversation with the next door farmer about two things: football and the music of Gainsbourg, as he is a huge fan...). I guess Gainsbourg would have ended up in jail in Germany or as a hated outlaw person like Klaus Kinski. So now Sebastien Tellier is representing France with his song "Divine" at this years EUROPEAN GRAND PRIX. It's such a good song, it will be a nice experiment to see what a great song (for a change) can reach/or not reach at this crazy tournament. I am really jealous. Well, at least he looks as excentric as many of recent winners...

As we have the rule to only post one song of an artist's album that we like (which was KILOMETER some time ago), we give you a link to his myspace page where you can listen to the chosen song DIVINE...
