Hotel Motel...etc!

Marcher sur Planète C

Hotel Motel...etc!


Hotel Motel

"Hotel Motel Holiday Inn," a été le refrain que j'ai chanté quand j'ai regardé par la fenêtre ce matin. C'est comme ça que fonctionne mon esprit. Je vois quelquechose, ici le drapeau, et une chanson me vient en tête.

"Rapper's Delight" est toujours prête à sortir, pas seulement car elle est un de mes plus gros succès mais parce qu'elle contient tellement paroles! Dès que je démarre la chanson, je ne m'arrête plus jusqu'à la fin.

Après mes tâches quotidiennes dans le business center, j'ai regardé l'agenda de demain, qui me montre que j'ai une interview demain. Dès que j'ai vu le mot 'interview' mon DJ interne démarre: "I was walking home late one dark afternoon, reporter stopped me for an interview. I said, 'By the way baby what's your name,' she said, 'I go by the name of Louis Lane. And you can be my boyfriend, you surely can. Just let me quit my boyfriend called Superman.' I said"... et jusqu'à la fin de la chanson.

Et puis je lis que mon interview se déroulera dans mon (here we go again) Hotel Motel...etc!


The hotel's business center


"I said..."

You will hear a Nile Rodgers song today. It will make you happy.

Today's pop music—genre-crossing, gender-bending, racially mixed, visually stylish, and dominated by dance music with global appeal—is the world that Nile Rodgers created. In the 1970s and 1980s, he wrote and produced the songs that defined that era and everything that came after: "Le Freak," "Good Times," "We Are Family," "Like a Virgin," "Modern Love," "I'm Coming Out," "The Reflex," "Rapper's Delight." Aside from his own band, Chic, he worked with everyone from Diana Ross and Madonna to David Bowie and Duran Duran (not to mention Mick Jagger, Debbie Harry, Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton, Michael Jackson, Prince, Rod Stewart, Robert Plant, Depeche Mode, Paul Simon, Peter Gabriel, Grace Jones, Bryan Ferry, INXS, and the B-52's), transforming their music, selling millions of records, and redefining what a pop song could be.
