I’ve noticed that when meeting a foreign person, mentioning that you like a beloved artist from their country is one of the best way to create a good vibe.
Which revered artist/group (not necessarily musician) from your place should I learn about?
A few examples I’m thinking about (correct me if I’m wrong):
Country | Artist |
---|---|
Argentina | Carlos Gardel |
Australia | Powderfinger |
Austria | Mozart, Falco, Thomas Bernhard |
Beligum | Jacques Brel, Stromae |
Brazil | Raul Seixas, Zé Ramalho |
Cabo Verde | Cesária Évora |
Canada | Leonard Cohen, Céline Dion, Gordon Lightfoot |
Egypt | Umm Kulthum |
France | Daft Punk |
Germany | Kraftwerk, Die Ärzte, Franz Kafka |
Iceland | Björk |
Italy | Elio e le Storie Tese |
Malawai | Evison Matafale |
Mali | Salif Keita |
Scotland | The Proclaimers, Sean Connery |
Sweden | Astrid Lindgren |
USA | Dolly Parton |
Edit: Spent my Saturday morning vibing, adding the “consensual” suggestions to the table.
Interesting! I knew the French version of this song by Hugues Aufray, which happens to be the inspiration for this band’s name. Although, Aufray’s inspiration is the sea shanty Santianna referring to the Mexican General Antonio López de Santa Anna, which has many variations.
