In France, our speciality is sad music... without music. Only lyrics are important [et]

I simply do not consider him as a writer or a singer, as his lyrics are bullshit and he does not sing, he mutters some words, which do not have any meaning and any interest.
To sum up, he does not emphasize more lyrics, however he does not emphasize music either!
