What would you want to ask Chan in an interview? Et si vous deviez faire une interview de Chan?

I am not going to interview Chan anytime soon (and as i'm not a journalist, it should never happen at all ) but if you were to interview Chan, what would you ask her?

I would have to think about that but i know that at some point, i would like to ask her "what do you think about your voice? Are you aware that it is special? Do you like it?"

--------------------------------------

Je ne risque pas d'interviewer Chan prochainement (surtout que je ne suis pas journaliste!) mais si vous pouviez le faire, que souhaiteriez-vous lui demander?

Il faudrait que j'y réflechisse un peu mais à un moment donné, je lui demanderai ce qu'elle pense de sa voix, si elle la trouve spéciale, si elle l'apprécie.

Les trois premières questions qui me viennent à l'esprit:

1. De quoi a-t-elle parlé avec Bob Dylan lorsqu'elle l'a rencontré? J'avoue que si je devais la rencontrer elle, je serai dans tous mes états, je ne sais pas si j'arriverai à décrocher un mot...même si elle est, selon l'une de mes connaissances qui lui a parlé à deux reprises, très sympa et accessible.

2. Avec qui elle rêverait de faire un duo hormis Dylan?

3. Pour quelle raison ne chante-t-elle jamais Speak For Me en live (qui est une des chansons de son répertoire que je préfère)?

Voilà, ce ne sont pas forcément les questions les plus pertinentes du monde, mais les réponses m'auraient intéressées!

Tough question. I have to think about this. I'd probably ask her if I could record some sessions for her. As a musician (guitar, bass, keyboards, drums) and engineer of sorts (I have my own home studio), I'd probably ask/beg her to let me record some songs with her. That would be the ultimate thing. Beyond that probably alot of philosophical/personal questions about what makes her tick. I could think of a hundred questions about her songs and albums and such but that might bore her. She seems to have some aspirations towards acting and I would ask her about that as well. I'd ask her for some stories about her tours, but I imagine they arent as colorful as some of the stories of the musicians she covers like Iggy Pop and Nico, but who knows.

I feel that we missed an opportunity: we should have sent our questions to some journalists...

Here is our opportunity! Spotify is going to interview Chan and we can send us our questions! http://www.spotify.com/au/blog/archives/2012/06/19/send-us-your-questions-for-cat-power/?no-pcache=1

Jeez, i feel a lot of pressure: which question do i really, really want to ask and could have a chance to be picked by Chan ?

Don't forget to submit your questions, they will probably do their interview very soon now.

C'est fait!

On est pas beaucoup à avoir participé...Du coup, y'a p'têtre + de chances pour que nos questions soient choisies!
