Sorry... I hadn't given up - I just got sidetracked by the roof tear-off going on here... so many things.  I'll restart this a.s.a.p.

Back again, with another one that is going to be troublesome if you aren't familiar with the world music scene.  This artist is big in France and, no kidding, the song is in French as well.  Can you name the artist and the song?

And here is one more... the song itself is not a difficult guess... the vocalists are more so.  Can you identify the female and male vocalists?

This thread is resurrected!  Welcome back, Phillip.

Those are hard...

The French one reminds me of Princess Stephanie.  I had one of her LPs back in the '80s.  That song sounds sort of '80s. 

"Dancin' in the Street"?  Not a clue.

Hey, I just found this thread!

These are both too tough for me though.  I mean other than knowing that the second song is "Dancing in the Street," aka "Dancin' in the  Street," aka "Dancing in the Streets," aka "Dancin' in the Streets."  I spent some time trying to cheat to figure out the vocalists and failed, but wound up watching Mick Jagger and David Bowie singing it down each other's throats, so that was interesting.
