Review by David Lavery

Alright, let’s dive into Pierre Letourneau’s album Faut Pas S’en Faire Avec Ça. It’s a Canadian pop gem with that classic chanson vibe—think heartfelt lyrics and melodies that stick to your brain like syrup on pancakes. Released under Les Disques Campus, it’s got Germain Gauthier all over the place: arranging, orchestrating, producing… dude was basically the wizard behind this whole project. Now, I gotta say, the track “Mon Frère” really hit me in the feels. The piano intro is simple but so smooth you can’t help but lean in. Then Pierre’s voice comes in, kinda warm and raw at the same time, talking about brotherhood and life struggles. You don’t even need to speak French fluently to get the emotion—he sings like he means every word. And those strings? Man, Germain knew exactly where to sprinkle ‘em for maximum impact. It’s one of those songs that makes you wanna call up your sibling just to check in, ya know? Then there’s the title track, “Faut Pas S’en Faire Avec Ça.” This one’s more upbeat, almost playful, but still carries some weight. The rhythm feels like something you’d hum while walking down the street on a sunny day, except then you catch these little nuggets of wisdom in the lyrics. Like yeah, sure, it’s catchy as hell, but it also reminds you not to sweat the small stuff. Honestly, I found myself replaying it because it’s such an earworm—you’ll be singing "faut pas s'en faire" under your breath without realizing it. What strikes me most about this album is how personal it feels. It doesn’t try too hard to impress; instead, it lets the music do the talking. There’s no flashy production tricks or over-the-top arrangements—just solid storytelling wrapped in lush sounds. Feels like sitting by a campfire with friends who actually have something meaningful to share. Oh, fun fact (or maybe not-so-fun): listening to this made me realize how much modern music lacks orchestration like this. We’re too busy chasing beats and drops, forgetting how beautiful real instruments sound together. Kinda sad when you think about it. Anyway, if you’re into music that’s got soul and doesn’t scream for attention, give Faut Pas S’en Faire Avec Ça a spin. Just don’t blame me if you start randomly tearing up during “Mon Frère.” Weird how music can do that sometimes, huh?
