The French pop band Holden are keeping the art of chanson alive and well on this track from the various artists' compilation New French Chanson: 8 for Matisse. Holden, which have quite the following in their home country, blend French song tradition with Brazilian and electronic music influences. On this cut, the band pair Serge Gainsbourg-style cool with a mellow, bossa nova lilt.
