Gwen Stefani’s debut: Love, Angel, Music, Baby
Take my word here, i’ve never been a No Doubt fan, and Gwen Stefani’s voice never really charmed the pop music lover that i am, but with collaborators such as Linda Perry, Nellee Hooper, Bernard Sumner and Peter Hook of New Order, i had to give up my pre-conceptions and give this album a try.… Continue reading Gwen Stefani’s debut: Love, Angel, Music, Baby

Traboulidon
Traboulidon était sûrement une des meilleures émissions jeunesse des années 80. Elle etait d’un imaginaire fantastique. On nous plongeait dans la vie de Bulle, joué par Sylvie Léonard, une jeune fille naïve, et Philo, interprété par Denis Mercier, un grand barbu lui servant de modèle. Ils voyageaient à travers des circuits informatiques et visitaient un… Continue reading Traboulidon
