La Chienne Belle
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
La Chienne Belle , which is French for "The Beautfiul Dog", was a record released in 2002 by Algerian guitarist and songwriter Souad Massi. The album's creation was inspired by the death of Massi's pet Yorkshire terrier Amari. Apparently, Massi was inside one day working on a song and heard tires screeching on the road in front of her house and heard a loud thump. Massi rushed outside quickly to find her canine companion in a pool of blood with broken ligaments in the middle of the street. Witnesses say the driver of the car, which, ironically enough, was a dog catcher, stopped then sped away.
The driver of the runaway dog catcher motor was never identified.
On Massi's album, there are 21 songs, 6 of which were broadcast on radio stations in Algeria, Egypt, France, Morocco, and Niger. The most popular single is Je Veux L'Amour de Vous (I Want the Love of You), which is 4:18 in length.
This album sold near 3 million copies around the world, primarily in southern Europe, northern and eastern Africa, and the Middle East.
Songs include:
1] Sunshine 2] Just Another Day 3] I Want the Love of You 4] My Beautiful Dog 5] Amazing Grace 6] French Is Not Another Language 7] Come Get Me 8] Struck 9] Lost Without You 10] A Reason 11] Tour de France 12] My Journey 13] Make It Rain 14] I Am A Queen 15] Family Comes First 16] Mystique 17] Crush 18] Not Yours 19] This Old Girl 20] Dancing in the Rainforest 21] Beloved Angel
