French is a Romance language, which means it has roots in Latin, the language used by the ancient Romans. Spanish, Italian and Portuguese are also Romance languages. Besides France, the Francophone (French-speaking) areas of the world include 25 other countries in Europe, Africa, the Caribbean and even parts of Canada and the United States.

Most of the songs on this collection come from France and the province of Quebec in Canada. French music has been influenced by popular sounds from around the world including jazz, reggae and African rhythms. We hope you enjoy this musical rendezvous of fun French songs. Bon voyage!
