Chansonnier (singer)
A ''chansonnier'' (female: ''chansonnière'') was a poet songwriter, a solitary singer, who sang his or her own songs (''chansons'') with a guitar, prominent in francophone countries during the 1960s and 1970s. Unlike popular singers, ''chansonniers'' need no artifice to sing their soul poetry. They performed in "''Les Boites à Chansons''" which flourished during those years. The themes of their songs varied but included nature, love, simplicity and a social interest to improve their world. Canada In Canada, the ''chansonnier'' tradition played a prominent role in the development of Quebec's social and political awareness during the Quiet Revolution, (''la Révolution tranquille'') that led to the affirmation of Quebecers' national identity. One prominent ''chansonnier'', Robert Charlebois, transformed the province's musical culture when he moved from traditional ''chansonnier'' pop to a more rock-oriented sound with his fourth album, ''Lindberg'', in 1968.Bob Mersereau, ''The His ...

A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility.

The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of ...
