Coeur de Pirate

Coeur de Pirate, par Comme des Enfants

(Still from the video clip> Click on the link below to watch)

So one of life's advantages when living in Paris is French television, and plenty of it. Much of it is rubbish, but I am a big fan of all the music channels. Living alone it can be nice not only to have the sound babbling away in the background, but also the image. This little ditty has me completely obsessed, and also OUTRAGED that it is not available for purchase in the Australian's itunes store.

What is the point, I ask, of having an international, digital store such as itunes if I, an inhabitant of Paris who happens to have an "Australian" itunes account can't purchase French music comme je voulais?? Are they planning a special release party for the Australian market??? Is it embargoed until Comme des Enfants tour?? Or maybe the next SO Frenchy, SO Chic CD has bought the exclusive Australian rights to it?? It is, in my little Franco-Australian opinion, RIDICULOUS!
