Hi, this is "Balalaïka", an unpretentious ditty that relates the fictional story of Gaston, an unmarried middle-age guy who found a fiancée on the Web and crossed the ocean from St-Pierre to La Rochelle to meet her. But she could be otherwise than the woman he expected... I don't put the french lyrics, not because they used some typical expressions from St-Pierre et Miquelon, but because the summary is sufficient. If you want to shorten the tune, skip to about 2:30 and listen to the solo of celtic fiddle. I love it, it gives me the desire to dance. The style is _BLUGRSF.STY where I have kept the basse (RT427), the banjo (RT426), the guitar (RT431), the violon (RT428) I added the RD Nashville Even8 and the soloist Celtic Fiddle (RT2549). The best Pascal

Pascal,
This is a terrific listen. I don't need to know a translation. I can enjoy the music as is...
Very well put together. Well sung. Terrific instrumentation/arrangement... Good mix.
Nice!

Hello, Pascal
Your vocal is so so nice and I like very much the style and the way you sing.
French lyrics and your song are blending so well.
Very pleasant.
I really enjoyed this!
Best Regards

Very good use of RealTracks substitution to make this style your own. Did you create a custom style with the StyleMaker?

Pascal,
Outstanding composition! I like everything about this! You can really sing!! And the combination of your vocal style and the tempo of the song really keep things lively! You're right... it makes me want to dance too!
On a different note, I've watched the various language icons on the PGMusic web site for quite some time, but its becoming more evident what a global community we have here! At this point in time we have active songs on the user showcase from every continent except antarctica! How cool is that?

This is wonderful! Very rhythmical. Your voice and the sound of French words well match the song. Nice choice of the instruments. I enjoyed it very much.

Happy you liked it Dani. Ya, there is no Balalaïka played in this tune, just two short parts of mandolin (RT1876 that I forgot to mention ) played when the name of Balalaïka is pronounced. Balalaïka is the username on Internet for the woman, second character of the song (real name but fictional: Ielena)  Cheers Pascal

Salut Pascal,
Encore une nouvelle tranche de vie que tu nous fais partager ici. Elle pourrait prêter à rire mais en dit long sur le sentiment de solitude que peuvent rencontrer certaines personnes qui pensent trouver grâce à Internet la solution à leur isolement......
I think the musical style is quite appropriate to the story you are telling. The RT 2549 with the celtic fiddle is a great success. I like too the backing vocal behind your voice.
Encore une fois, tu as fait du bon boulot.
Salutations musicales. Christian
