This is one of the first French songs, I remember. I think the very first one I listened to without understanding the words but also the meaning of the song, was La vie en rose . Did I understand this one? Not at first, but ai loved the song, because you could dance to it. As I got older, I would always listen to it every now and then, when I visited Memory Lane. And as I got older I understood the meaning of the song.

I'll still listen to it next year and the year after that. But are there other French songs, I should give a try?

After reading Daisy Jones & The Six I remembered the movie Almost famous which is also about a fictitious band in the 1970s and how a band is struggling to get gigs, be famous and have a great record out.

It's directed by Cameron Crowe and it's based on some of his experiences, when he was a kid/younger. It is definerely a movie to watch.

“[…] loving somebody isn’t perfection and good times and laughing and making love. Love is forgiveness and patience and faith and every once in a while, it’s a gut punch.[...]“

- Daisy Jones & The Six, p. 214

I'm reading Daisy Jones & The Six and I am loving it. It's an easy read and I'm flying through the pages. I'm reading it on my phone though, so I'm breaking my own rule about reading actual books or listening to the audiobook. Not that there's anything wrong with reading on a screen. I just like the feeling of having a book in my hands and turning the pages.

It's a book by Taylor Jenkins Reid. It's about a fictional rockband in the 70s and it's written in dialogues like an interview you'd read in a magazine.

I'm not done with book just yet, I'm at the point where Daisy and Billy are writing a song together, editing it back and forth.

Exciting. I have a feeling there's going to be a massive crash and burn moment.
