Les Cornichons
I use this song by Nino Ferrer (just the CD version without video) when we begin learning about food. It's got lots of food items in it and I have them listen to the CD once and write down all the food words (or even just words) in French. I then give them the full text and we learn it together. Last year, one of my 7th grade boys went home and found a version on youtube (song is Ferrer, but youtube video is not by him) that fit perfectly with the lyrics! (it's wierd enough that my middle schoolers love it). -- Lisa M.

Le Bruit et L'Odeur
Here is another Zebda song - "Le Bruit et L'Odeur", or "The Noise and the Smell". You may have to turn up the volume on your computer to hear it well. -- Lisa M.

This is part of Jacque Chirac's infamous speech, on which Zebda based it's song "Le Bruit et L'Odeur." -- Lisa M.
