Liasons and the endings almost seem like they make sense to me.
i find it a bit more difficult now that i do know other languages.

in french class, im always making the mistake of reading/pronouncing everything the way i used to do with spanish.

Sometimes I'm trying to pronounce English words as in French Spanish and French pronunciation are different, in French you must think how many last letters of word you should cut
French pronunciation is rather hard

yup. that's why i racked my brains so much over "J'ai pas vingt ans"

why would you bother writing it down, if nearly half of the word isn't pronounced?!

Bah, answer is easy: It's just French and its charm

And to add something to topic. Recently I like also:
"We were good together.
Mon Chouchou.
Don't say never, ever."
And I like that "Chouchou", it make me smile always

That was the best song she ever did in terms of her beautiful singing. While it may not be as enjoyable a song as many others, her voice was perfect when she sang these words:

ÇA PASSE PAS PAR UN MASQUE
AVEC LES MOTS D’HIER
ÇA PASSE PAR UN REGARD
CACHÉ SOUS LES PAUPIÈRES

ABSOLUTELY MAGICAL.

I agree, however I would say its this part too because I luv the guitar along with her voice..:

"Le marchand de sable
Est parti, sans dire bonne nuit
Tant pis j’ai le sommeil bohémien"


HOWEVER...

I prefer her voice in the live concert un mixed.. and there, the first line gets me because its higher than usual in her songs..

"Les paupières souvent c’est lourd"



I luv her unmixed voice in this... so perfect in this song...

HOWEVER...

Par Les Paupieres Acoustic has the best instrumentation... LUV the base and drums in this.. especially the build up from 2:48 - 3:09 goes so well with her singing...



HOWEVER...

My favorite Lilly line has to be "l luv Sneakers!"
