This is the Youtube playlist for my book, French Women’s Confidence Secrets. The idea is that readers can listen to these songs while reading the book. I tried to include both older and more recent hits, all sung by female vocalists. If anyone can think of any further French chansons, by female vocalists, that should be included, please let me know in the comments. I have run out of ideas. If you would like to listen to the playlist, please click on the picture at the bottom of the page.

What a great idea it must have taken you a while to compile this list. What a woman – writing a book plus the play list. I’m impressed!
I started thinking this is only going to take a couple of minutes, and then I got lost in the music of my past…amazing how music brings back memories.
Wonderful idea to accompany the book! I just ordered the Kindle book on Amazon and can’t wait to read it–and listen!
Thank you, Lee. You are a friend in a million.
I feel calm and confident just listening to the music and watching the book trailer. I can’t wait to read the book!
You are calm and confident already, Molly,(we won’t mention the incident with the curtain rail in the hotel room) that is why I appreciate you buying the book so much.
Gaan ook nou kuier by die Afrikaanse dame in die suide van Frankryk!
Klink na ‘n plan! en baie welkom ook. Ek het my verkyk vanoggend aan die foto’s op jou blog, veral die foto van die wilde perde. My Pa is in Keetmanshoop gebore en ons het gereeld in Suid-Wes gekuier toe ek jonger (baie jonger) was.
A lekker,nou het ek nog ‘n interessante vriendin op ‘n ander plek in die wêreld.
Dankie vir al die komplimente,ek waardeer dit!
Groot plesier, en jy is my venster na ‘n wereld wat ek somtyds vreeslik mis.
Ja mens se wortels bly jou wortels!
Is waar.
I love the idea of having a playlist to your book! Brilliant. I’m not sure I’ve seen it before, myself!
Let’s hope it is not “illegal” in some way or another.
