Not going on vacation? Never seen St. Tropez, let alone France or even Europe? Then this year’s summer podcast is for you! Podcast No. 34 is one big vacation, with sea, sex, sun, sadness, teenage romance, small hotel rooms and expensive drinks. Pretend you’re a teenager like France Gall here, sitting on a boat near Nice. Your family drags you down there from Paris every year and the boys keep trying to coax you to parties and kiss you while your sweetheart is stuck in the Canary Islands with black haired Spanish beauties in their bikinis. Life is so tough!

August 3rd, 2009 | Comments Off on Podcast No. 34 – The holidays are here again!
I have finally added some new music to the radio!
We have some jazzy Serge Gainsbourg, composer Michel Legrand’s sister, Christiane Legrand singing samba, lots of happy-poppy Sheila and some oddballs and psychedelic stuff such as Bruno Leys and Jack Ary.
Remember, Radio Oh la la is 100% commercial-free!

July 23rd, 2009 | Comments Off on New music on the webradio!
First, this rare photo of famous Dutch singer Liesbeth List singing with Serge Gainsbourg (thanks Guuzbourg!). Then, we have winter as the main theme running through Podcast No. 31, although sparingly since most of you get bombarded with way too much of this normally. I decided to keep it low key, retro, snowy, with a hint of Christmas. Think of these songs like gifts, one more relaxed for the parents, one for grandma, one for the boisterous kids, etc. Just use your imagination!
Playlist
Liesbeth List – L’anamour
Michel Polnareff – La mouche
Claude Dubois – Sullivan
Ronnie Bird – SOS mesdemoiselles
Ginette Reno – Père Noël arrive ce soir
Danièle et Michèle – L’hiver
And I found a picture of me back in Brossard, Québec, when I was much smaller and apparently already colour coordinated.
