An ace #song of #French group Kalika was "L‘été est mort". It reflects the ambiguous(?) feelings of a girl terminating a summer relationship. The #hyperpop style was wonderfully visualised in it's #music #video, in which at the end she realizes that he found a substitution yet.

#French #singer #Zaho de Sagazan gained huge popularity and is already giving sold-out concerts. Many adult listeners are attracted by her frank, intime and disarming #lyrics as much as by her intense interpretation of these emotional experiences.
Besides existing translations of the title "Tristesse" to English and Spanish, I have added a more detailed translation to German.

Kingtommi entered the #Danish #hiphop scene mearly two years ago with his energetic yet sensual style. Most of his #lyrics are very intruding and touching. That is why I proudly provide further translations to you! The almost jazzy and quite diverse piece "Bedre End Dem" in English and German:

One of the key tracks of the Nuovo Punk Italiano is "Summersad 2", although a bit commercial already.
It is a celebration of - and a mourning about - life in the punx nowadays.
Motto: Per cambiare Italia!

The Welsh all-female band Adwaith has gained excellent critics beyond Wales. Their indie rock songs have a fresh sound
enriched by the very intruding touchy sound of the Welsh language.
Adwaith is also a very professional live band as demonstrated with this contemplating, very delicately interpreted song Fel i Fod, performed at Green Man Festival.
Enjoy the diversity of European music!
