In 1987, fourteen-year old Vanessa Paradis recorded the unintentional international pop hit Joe Le Taxi. The singer/actress/model confided in recent years that the song that launched her stardom was never meant to be a pop song, but was just "a very simple rhumba". The song about a Parisian taxi driver was written for her by Franck Langolff and Etienne Roda-Gil. Joe Le Taxi soared to number one on the singles chart in France, and spent eleven weeks there. The song hit number one in over a dozen other countries. In 1988, a Portuguese-language version recorded by Brazilian child star Angelica topped the Brazilian pop charts. Vou De Taxi became an instant Brazilian classic and increased the popularity of that popular Brazilian singer, actress and TV personality. see video for Vou De Taxi - HERE

I used to drive a taxi and it was a nice experience. Well, I was bouncing around jobs that year, and driving a taxi seemed fun to me. I was able to do it for at least six months, before I got bored of it. To be honest, it was one of the simplest jobs that I had that year, but it was also really tiring. I had to go and drive my taxi for hours before I make a profit. Leave a Reply. |
