As I’ve mentioned in this article today, Simple Plan have recorded also a French version of Jet Lag that is featuring one of its co-writers – the Canadian singer Coeur De Pirate (real name: Beatrice Martin). Thanks to Aurélie I found out that the NRJ radio station has actually already posted this version many months ago on their website.
However later Simple Plan decided to use Marie-Mai for the official release (Jet Lag has been already recorded and sung live many times with different female singers – check out more about each version here).
You can listen to the version with Coeur De Pirate below:
I can see why they chose the Marie-Mai version. This version seems a bit flat, compared to the official version.
I love Coeur de Pirate, she has an amazing voice…. “Comme des Enfants” is just a wonderful song… Both french versions are great,,,, Nonetheless I prefer the radio edit, with more french singing….
