WHAT THE PARADISE is La Caravane featuring Grace Jones? OMG, I'm really FUCKIN' EXCITED listening this music over and over again. That's, absolutely, the best duet that Brigitte and Grace has ever made (and, maybe, ever do something like this). It's a masterpiece! The voices of Grace and Brigitte combine to form an absolutely stupendous combination! I LOVE duets with both, and I hope they stay together recording more tracks! ♥

Brigitte & Areski created a unique artistic tandem - though everythin ( even the music ) was built a priori from Brigitte's poetry & words .. she was - is and will be u know The Persona behind their inspiration - behind their innovation and of course the key of their work so she holds the name of all of that ! respectfully...
