"Dites-le avec Benjamin Paulin"

I went to an intimate concert on Wednesday at the Apple store in the Carroussel du Louvre. The name of the artist? Benjamin Paulin. He's a new French singer and writer. He used to rap before, but he finally found his way: a kind of dandy-cum-rapper-and-slamer. Inspired from the young Jacques Dutronc and the talented Benjamin Biolay. Even though he doesn't have that much of a voice, he's got some real good intonations... and damn what he emits is just dazzling! His first album is really good, the kind of song you start singing in the metro, at work, under the shower... BP was even cool to sign my album at the end of the show. If I was intimidated?.... well, what do you think...

Biased Bike...

Hey everyone... long time no see. I know, I didn't deliver. I apologize for that. If I told you I was actually busy working for a movie these last few months, would you buy it? Well you should coz that's a true story. A wonderful experience by the way. Anyway, I hope you're all doing good, coz spring is on the way. Yeah, the weather guy said so on the news... Last Friday was actually a preview of that early spring. It was all sunny and quite warm, that's why I put on my sneakers, my Ipod on and my way-too-long old blue sweat pants that I just love, and I went walking on the banks of the Seine. Yeah, you read well, I went walking, not jogging... Well actually I kinda ran for like 4 minutes, because of some joggers making me feel shameful I gotta say... Anyway, I just love walking, and I walk actually pretty fast -if you don't believe me just ask my friends. During those 11 miles -true story again- I took some pictures. But don't tell my Canon, I actually shot with my IPhone4, great quality FYI. I like that house overhanging the water. It looks like a movie set really. Not the kind of house you'll expect to see near Paris. Actually you could think that was taken in the US. I just loved the irony of that warning sign with the bike...
