I love music, reading, going out with friends and i loveee animals- I have two cats Maria and Carlota.

My name is Ana (as you can see by my nickname ), I'm 18 years old and I'm a student ( 1 year away from colledge lol).

Hey I think this is a good idea.

My name is Marie, I am 18 years old, I live in the UK. I am currently studying French, chemistry and maths. From September I will be going to university in London to do biomedical sciences. I love music it is my passion, whether it be just listening, singing, or playing an instrument (I play the recorder well and I am learning the piano). I also enjoy tennis and swimming.

Hello english speakers!!
Well, I've noticed that this part of the forum is not very dinamic... and I think that there is also some lack of organisation (with all the due respect for all the moderators and adminis of this forum to whom I thank for the great, great job ).
So, I thought that the part "Discuss" needed a special "Welcome zone" to all the english speakers that come for the first time and don't speak french very well or don't really know how to speak french.
It will be a good start if all the members in this situation made a small introduction like:

1.Name
2.Country
3.Age
4.The way you learn about "Le Roi Soleil"/ Emmanuel Moire
5.Hobbies
6. ...

I feel like I should make something clear... This is not a way to create a barrier between french speakers and english speakers. I just think that we should create this little space because some people register and they love the artist, they want to express the way they feel, but they have a huge barrier: the language. I've been there myself, so I know what I'm talking about.

Finnally,

Welcome!!!

PS. As we are not many (yet! ) the people that have already introduce themselves elsewhere can make their presentation here, again, so that this topic can be a reference.

Whitedesire's message is the oldest, so it comes in first place. She had the idea first. So, my topic as the only purpose of help people to guide themselves trough their presentation.

Kiss

So, I'll start... again! lol
Hello !!
My name is Ana, I'm from Portugal and I'm 18 years old.
I discovered "Le Roi Soleil" while I was confortably installed on my couch, zapping... I stopped on mcm and there they were: Emmanuel Moire and Anne-Laure Girlbal, singuing that wonderful music...
I should inform you that at that time I didn't listen to french music (for many reasons, mainly because in Portugal they don't play french music on the radios and because, altough I've learned french for three years at school, I had forgotten most of the things I learned) so, there i was, listening to that awesome music, sang in a unknown language and guess what... I loved it! Even with all those obstacles, that music and mainly, that interpretation were absolutely amazing!

My hobbies are dancing, reading, listen to music, watching tv and writing. Oh, I almost forgot... and participating in LRS's forums !

Now that i look back to what I've written, I've noticed that it's a lot and enough... lol


Ana

Hey there!!
Great idea Ana! The "Discuss" part was a little bit quiet!
So I'll make my contribution!
My name is Filipa, I'm 18 and I'm portuguese too! Just like you, I've discovered Emmanuel one day, sitting in my couch watching MCM. I already knew one or two french songs, but I was also null in french language! My 3 years of french in school were completely gone !
The first music that I eard from LRS was "Etre a la hauteur", after that song I was their fan! Now I even speak french again (I little bad still, but it will get better!) thanks to this forum

My hobbies are sports (I played rugby for an year but now I'm for more quiet sports ) , singing, reading, listen to music and I also play accordion since I was 6!

Big kisses!
Filipa

I am Eleanor from London

Found Le Roi Soleil by accident one day when I was surfing the internet for information on Cathialane from Le Petit Prince.

And saw the show in December and totally fell in love with it.

Bought the cd in Paris so I knew the songs but not the way they were perfomed.

Last week in Paris I bought the single of 'La vie passe' with cd-rom - so gorgeous - can't wait for the dvd of the show to be released if that clip is anything to go by!!!!!!!!!!

Adore Merwan and Christophe (and of course Manu!)

Lord, it's been eons since i wa son here, i AM SO SORRY for that, but it's just been chaos with work and the master's degree, but WOW, this place is ROCKING now, and there are so many more portuguese fans around these parts, i think i was the only one when i signed up, it's nice to see the LRS love spreading around the globe.

My nephew is now in love with the cd, he's going to be 2 years old in a few days and initially he didn't like it, but now it's like HELLO, where's that nice thingie my auntie taped for me!!

Hope everybody is doing great, just wanted to say HELLO!!!

Love, ana

thanks yasmine!!! ) i'm trying to catch up with the news and the threads. i wish i hadn't been away for so long, i stopped by now and then but always in a hurry, but i'm kinda fed up with being in such a hectic schedule, i miss my stuff, like being around these parts!!

Welcome back nihil! I hope you have a lot of fun around here, and you're completly rigth, this place is getting better every day!
It's great to see that the share of Emmanuel's portuguese fan's is rising!

Big kisses

Hi Filipa,

I'm trying to get back on track, but it's hard with work and the master's. I just ordered the collector's edition of the complete version of the show, the beautiful red boxset with 2 cds and 1 dvd, i'm really eagerly waiting for it to arrive right now!! i waited and waited for it to come out because i figured it'd come ina great packaging and i prefer complete musicals to just a few selected songs.

Does anybody know if there's going to be a collector's edition of the dvd of the show?? hope so!

yeah, i wasn't expecting to see so many portuguese people around here, when i signed up last year i don't think there were any more around. it was great!!!

love and light to everybody around heer!!

Yes nihil, I think that there will be a collector's edition of the dvd!
We just have to wait until 9 of November!!

Big kisses
