Faire sauter la radio!

One peice of advice one often gives when learning a new language is to listen to music or the radio in that language.

That is not an easy feat in France. As I sit here and study my french everyday, I turn on the radio. What I hear is very little french. En fait, ce que j'ecoute est les même quatre chansons d'Americain....

It's worse than Canada pop radio. I think the only thing I've memorised is the lyrics from the latest Justin Timberlake song. Greeaaaat. Listen for yourself here: http://www.nrj.fr.

There is one benifit though. They don't sensor American hip hop. Does anyone realize how dirty that music is? My virgin ears...

F* THAT!
