French pop for people who like their earworms with a side of existential side-eye.
“L’insecte” is exactly my kind of French pop: smart, stubbornly catchy, and too idiosyncratic to ever go bland. Tom Novembre is the exceptional force here—actor energy, comedian timing, and real emotion hiding in plain sight. The title track pokes straight through your defenses, “Les Nains De 1,80m” is instant cult, and the rest stays nicely quirky with chanson attitude and a pop-rock push. Nothing runs on autopilot.
1983 chanson-pop drama: intimate vocals, sharp writing, and tracks that stick for days.
Tom Novembre’s 1983 “Toile Cirée” blends chanson francaise with pop-rock edges, driven by intimate vocals and lyrics focused on love, loss, and everyday complications. The record balances quiet confession with punchier moments, showing real range across the set. Standouts include “Bavards” and “Parcours Santé,” making this one a smart, mood-rich French LP worth revisiting.
1982 French pop satire: quirky hooks, sharp jokes, and weird ideas that actually work.
Tom Novembre’s “Version Pour Doublage” (1982) is a playful, eclectic French pop LP rooted in chanson francaise but loaded with quirky humor and satirical lyrics. The songs poke at social norms and the absurdity of conformity, while keeping the melodies catchy and off-kilter. Highlights like “André,” “Le Fléau,” and “Les Casseroles” deliver eccentric hooks with a sharp, character-driven tone.
