After
Douban
résumé
Brand new album of 10 cover versions, emanating from Iggy's increasing fascination with all things French. The album features songs originally by Serge Gainsbourg, Georges Brassens, Edith Piaf, Yves Montand and Joe Dassin sitting with those of Lennon/McCartney, Frank Sinatra, Yoko Ono, Cole Porter and Harry Nilsson. We see James Osterberg as 'The Singer', rather than the performer, turning attention to songs which have inspired him over the years.
