M & Vanessa Paradis: La Seine

 Love this clip of M. M and Ms Paradis on a Facebook live.

Two talented artists in a relaxed and informal setting looking like they're genuinely having a lot of fun.

The song was originally from the soundtrack of the 2011 movie A monster in Paris. The soundtrack was, of course, originally created by M and Vanessa Paradis, La Seine being the stand-out track which was released as a single.

There's a lot to be said for artists being able to create their own broadcasts on platforms like Facebook. It's less formal and intrusive, and lets them perform in a comfortable and accessible environment even during the current Coronavirus restrictions. 

It may lack the budget of television or even the art and craft of some of the high-quality online session performances that have emerged in recent years, but it gives access to artists in a new way and allows them direct involvement in the creative process.

Hopefully we'll see much more of this kind of thing!
