I still sometimes wonder if Les Mots (it's a Mylene song) could crack the U.S. It has Mylene singing in French and Seal singing in English. There is some precedence for American acceptance of songs that mix English with another language. Adding to the possibilities is the French portions of Les Mots are relatively easy to comprehend (several words are phonetic cousins to their English counterparts) once someone points them out. And the flow of the song is slow enough that the words (linguisitic pun intended) are easy to follow.
For those who haven't heard it:

GREG ! It's been so long
And Fralizee, I've often thought about that same thing. How can they call themselves "World Champions". By the way, we mustn't forget that we have a very large portion of our population that not only wouldn't listen to foreign music, they HATE the French.

It's possible.
Back to topic: Many many calls might get the songs on the air. One can only hope. |

Haven't I Muvrini performed concerts in US? I think I read that somewhere. They are from Corsica and they sing in their native language. Though they fall into the ethnic category that seems more acceptable than "french pop" perhaps. That duet with Sting might have helped also.
