French

A few days ago I bought Berlitz's kit for learning French.

I love French, so I decided to learn it by myself, and o far it's going great! :) I'm on chapter 4 (scéne 4) - 23 to go!

Actually, I wanted to write about the reason I was so motivated to learn it (beside tha fact that I love it and that I'm constantly bored)

A few years ago I went on vacation in France, and while I was there, chewing on my first ever cheeseburger, MCM channel was playing on huge plasmas. One song caught my senses: Même Si, by Lucie Silvas and Grégory Lemarchal. It was half English, half French. And maybe that's the reason I liked it so much.

When I came back home I downloaded it immediately and in loops. It's been a few years since then, but I heard the song...not often, but quite a few times a year.

Two months ago, I don't know how, I found out that Grégory died. He was only 23. He died of Cystic Fibrosis on April, 2007.

I was incredibly sad, and decided to explore his songs a bit further. Anyway, I sorta fell in love in his voice...And got a bit curious about French as well, so I took it.

Does anyone know about Grégory? Heard of him?
