Hi Deinonysus,

That's a great idea for a legend like Charles Aznavour ! Actually, learning foreign songs might be my favorite way to learn languages :D

There are probably more, but three songs pop into my mind right now:

1) Own Yourself - Nâaman (English / French): I don't know if it can be considered bilingual, since the whole song is in English and there is only the last verse in French, but I really like that song. Nâaman is French but he mostly sings in English in his songs, and that's one of the rare ones where he sings a bit in French ^^

2) Liberta - Pep's (French / English): This time only the chorus is in English, and the rest is in French.

3) Je réalise _ Sinik (feat. James Blunt) (French / English)
