Mireille Mathieu La Mer

While I am not a fan of French music in general, there are some gems in there. And not like just like Ute Lemper or something, she's a nice German woman who sings in French occasionally, for the variety of it. 

Mireille Matheiu's got a great voice, and this is a very nice song. We're all familiar with the English version, so you'll all recognize the melody.
