Why do we like this?

Out of France comes this upbeat dose of pop française, otherwise known as French pop.

Voyou is a trumpet player from Nantes in the Loire Valley, Western France. He's been playing the trumpet since he was three, which helps to explain why we hear the instrument feature throughout this track.

Voyou is having a fun time of things -- opening shows, collaborating with Yelle, and working on his debut album. And if you're wondering what a "papillon" is in French, it means "butterfly."
