Eh, it's better than Clapton's version.
Merely singing a classic in another language doesn't make it a successful reinterpretation.
"I Shot the Sheriff" in French, WOW! Thanx RP!


I don't mind French songs at all, but totally prefer hearing the original.

With that said - it's turgid, soulless, recycled, translated, pap. Instant PSD for me.
lyrics : « I've killed the police chief, but I did'nt kill his team leader, oh no, no no. »
(J'ai tué le commissaire, mais je n'ai pas tué son brigadier, oh, no, no , no.)
As if talking about killing someone was as anecdotal as talking about the weather.....
I prefer avoiding to hear those kind of lyrics.

Decent at best. And I agree with comment below - much better than the horrific Pink Floyd WYWH cover he does.

Sacrilege
Alpha Blondy churns through everything I've heard so far way too hurriedly. Like he has no time to emote a feeling or an atmosphere...just get through it and wink. Good production, but too polished and sterile for my tastes. I'm so incredibly bored by 'reggae' as it is...and when you strip the life out of a song...you're left with a carcass.

One of the ugliest songs I ever listened to ....
Volume turned low again and.....
was disappointed, thought we might be treated to some Dread Zeppelin

Cha Cha in the Culdesac ?? 
Awesome
Pouvre, pouvre brigadier...
Maybe if I had just gotten off the sailboat dingy in Tortola and were sitting at the beach bar listening to a local kit. Maybe. More beer please.
Not a huge fan of the song, so this is tempered a bit by that. Infinitely better than the Pink Floyd cover he does, tho.
This is almost too fast. Feels like a ska song; nothing wrong with that but I'd rather have it slowed down a bit.

um...ok....Really? Low ratings? A classic covered by another great artist - in French? What's NOT to like? damn...
