Well i've been listening to this station for a while and its pretty good.

Its a french station but the music on there is pretty good. If you are a child of the 90's then you might be interested that they have now launched a 90s only station \o/

The main station has a good mix of 90s through to today. There isn't any of the RnB shyte that plagues many of the stations now. It streams using winamp shoutcast so the quality isn't bad either

There was a huge movement in France and was then applied to broacasting law that more french music was played. French radio stations were plagued by over playing of English music (which i didn't mind) but it did mean that French pop and rock did suffer. And in spite of their style there is some very good French music out there - we'll ignore Johnny Halliday

They do play a diverse set of music now which I quite like it's not stuff I'd buy but stuff I'd quiet happily cruise along the motorway too. I tend to use autoseek on the radio when I'm driving in France - so I don't really know what radio stations I'm listening too.

I'll have to check that site out.

There is a heck of a lot of English music played on the station although there is the odd french song. I must admit that some of it sounds alright, no idea who it was I was listening to though

What music always talks about: love/relationships/sorrow/heartbreak/old love/new love/melancholy/cooking/making love/food/garlic/making love/onions/happiness/joy/making love.

I listen to the radio quite a lot when I'm in France (usually when stuck on the N104 or BP). NRJ (say the letters in French and it'll make sense) is the station I listen to most.

Will · 27-11-2006, 16:16

NRJ is not bad - it goes through phases. Then again I'll flick channels a lot

I'm glad I've only got 5 channels on my TV - means I get bored and turn it off quickly!
