I don't know that you'll be able to find it on iTMS, but MC Solaar is an excellent choice.

If you don't mind recording an audio stream, there's a nice track on MC Solaar's site. Very upbeat.

Also:
Serge Gainsbourg Françoise Hardy Stereolab (sometimes in French) Superbus (very mainstream pop, sounds like Green Day with girls) If you want to get cute: Yves Montand Edith Piaf "What a computer is to me is it's the most remarkable tool that we've ever come up with, and it's the equivalent of a bicycle for our minds." - Steve Jobs Last edited by sunrain : 2005-07-18 at 23:54. |

Georges Brassens evokes a very Parisien air - http://georgesbrassens.artistes.universalmusic.fr/

Another French artist available in iTMS would be Calogero. I especially like "Face a la mer" from his album "3" - that was also a huge hit in France last summer.

Eglantine Gouzy has sort of trip hop drum beats and atmospherics with gorgeous breathy vocals and stuff. She's really good.

If it's a bit of French Nu-Metal you're after, KYO are pretty good... Dunno if it's on iTMS....checks.....yes it is...

yeah...but my daughter likes the beatles and they were at abbey road (doing the required silly walk across it)
forgot Basement Jaxx doing where's your head at during a london museum visit that had lots of statues without heads...don't think they are english, but couldn't pass that up as for why current french pop as oppossed to older stuff like i used for england?? well, i don't understand french singing, so the words mean nada to me, unlike the songs in english, and so i figure, old, current no difference to me...might as well go current.... g crazy is not a rare human condition everything is food if you chew hard enough |

Daft Punk are french and great upbeat music, but you wouldn't really tell by the music(i.e. no french lyrics).
