Annie

Still active (look at this picture!), but her star shone brightest in the sixties, when Annie Philippe had a massive hit with Ticket de Quai. The song posted is Tout Finit à St.Tropez, a slow, sad song. You can almost see the tears in her eyes. Annie used to be a dj (at 17 years old!) when she was discovered as a singer, and made records that were aimed at fans of France Gall and Sylvie Vartan. Here you can find a complete sixties-discography. Her cover version of The Supremes' Baby Love (in French, ofcourse) is also very nice.

Hear here.
