In response to the thread title, i think Petit Fours may be my least favourite frank black album.
I just can't get into the whole dance pop thing. Plus, the whole retro 80's thing has been done to death in the last couple of years. I'm glad there are people who like it here, but i hope Grand Duchy will be a Frank Black side project rather than his main focus.

I have to agree. My favourite ones are the ones that sound less like retro 80s and more like Frank Black songs (Come On Over To My House, Fort Wayne, Black Suit)

I dont want to sound aggressive or anything like that, but appart from fort wayne I really dont like at all Petit Fours.
Better think it's NOT a Frank Black album, wich it isnt anyway.
I think it sounds like Garbage (the band). But Garbage sounded like Simple Minds. When I was 14, in the damned 80s, I used to say: I like better a Talking Head than a Simple Mind. I'm a fan of the eighties too! But not those 80s.

For those who might be interested, here's my stab at the lyrics of Donnes Moi:

Le soleil du matin brille bien dans ma chambre
Les rideaux dansent pour mon plaisir
J'ai non pas besoin d'une télévision*
Beaucoup de bonbons de sucre possession
Un pot de thé, joie hé!

Donne-moi ce que
Ce que je veux
C'est tout c'que je sais
Et pour ce désirer
Donne-moi ce que
Ce que je veux
C'est tout c'que je sais

Venez à la fête de thé
C'est très excitant pour jouer
J'ai le glaçage sur le droit
Je ris à la réflexion de moi

Donne-moi ce que
Ce que je veux
C'est tout c'que je sais
Et pour ce désirer
Donne-moi ce que
Ce que je veux
C'est tout c'que je sais

Donne-moi ce que
Ce que je veux
C'est tout c'que je sais
Et pour ce désirer
Donne-moi ce que
Ce que je veux
C'est tout c'que je sais

(Donne-moi ce que je veux)
(C'est tout c'que je sais)

* That’s what I hear, but I think it should be “Je n'ai pas besoin d'une télévision”

BTW, my French isn't all that great, so definitely feel free to offer corrections!

Cheerz,

It just has all of the FB/BF amazingness that I originally fell in love with - pop graces, distorted blasts of townsend-esque guitar heroics ( I like distortion when he bar chords), and haunting female cooing about the human heart, vulnerability, sweetly triumphant enjoyment of life in all its vageries.... I can't wait for the rest of it.

what is a vageries?
