France Joli ([ˈfʁɑnʒɔˈli] born February 2, 1963) is a Canadian singer, best known for the disco classics "Come to Me" and "Gonna Get Over You".
Teen stardom
Born France Joly in Montreal, Quebec, Joli grew up in Dorion. Her father was a hardware merchant and her mother was a teacher.
As early as age four, Joli was performing for relatives lip-syncing to Barbra Streisand records while handling a skipping rope like a microphone; she had appeared on television by age six. At age 11, Joli left the public school system (her mother tutored her) to concentrate on her performing career appearing regularly in television commercials and talent shows. A mutual acquaintance suggested Joli meet up with musician Tony Green who Joli approached backstage after he'd given a concert, Joli inviting Green to be her record producer. Green didn't take the 13-year-old Joli seriously: he'd recall: "To get rid of her I [told] her to keep in touch." According to one source Joli eventually visited Green's home to sing for him; it's also reported that Green first heard Joli sing from the audience of an "end of school year show" in which she performed in the fall of 1978. Both accounts concur that Green first heard Joli singing along with a Streisand record. Green had written the song "Come to Me" for Joli by the next day.
When the producer Green originally commissioned to record Joli indicated a desire to develop Joli as a Francophone singer, Green himself took over production duties for Joli. The tracks Joli cut with Green were picked up by Prelude and released on April 17, 1979 as the album France Joli: the track "Come to Me" received a boost when Joli performed it as a last-minute replacement for Donna Summer at a concert held on Fire Island on July 7, 1979 before an estimated audience of five thousand.
"Come to Me" began a three-week reign atop the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play on 22 September 1979 and the France Joli album rose to #26. On the Billboard Hot 100 "Come to Me" peaked at #15 November 17, 1979, the same week that Donna Summer peaked at #2 with "Dim All the Lights".
Joli made her network television debut on 26 October 1979 broadcast of The Midnight Special and she co-hosted the 7 December episode. Her other TV credits included episodes of the talk shows of Mike Douglas, Merv Griffin and Dinah Shore and also a Bob Hope special.
1980 saw the release of Joli's second album Tonight with the ballad "This Time (I'm Giving All I've Got)" released as a single bubbling under for two weeks pk #103: this attempt to curry favor in the mainstream market was unsuccessful with Joli receiving support only in the dance club market where the tracks "The Heart to Break the Heart" and "Feel Like Dancing" achieved a joint position of #3: Tonight was ranked on the Billboard album chart at #175.
In 1981 Joli's third album Now – produced by Ray Reid and William Anderson from Crown Heights Affair rather than Tony Green1 – failed to generate even a low chart placing, success apparent only in another dance club smash with the track "Gonna Get Over You", which went to number two for two weeks on the American dance charts.[1] However Joli, as evidenced by her opening for the Commodores during their American tour of 1981, was still viewed as having star potential: she departed the dance music-oriented Prelude label for mainstream music giant Epic.
1The track: "Your Good Lovin'" was arranged and produced by Prelude regulars Eric Matthew and Darryl Payne.
2"Gonna Get Over You" reached #43 on the French Pop charts [1]
Revolution 618 TV episode 35 "Living As Sons" Hosted by Josh and Melissa Jamison. Directed and Produced by Bryan Kreutz. Associate Producer Jen Collins-Smith. Original Airdate November 8,2010 on the Christian Television Network. Pastor Josh Jamison states "The Lord is my Daddy"! "I'm not a sinner I’m saved by grace, I was once a sinner, I know where I came from and I don't think of myself more highly than I ought to think. I am complete in him who is the head of all principality and power. That is the transformation that took place in my life that I can see that and know that and walk in son ship and I have less of a desire to grow in faith so that I can get my needs met but more of a desire to be useful for the father. To be a son who is mature and be able to do the lords business." Josh Jamison references Romans Chapter 8:14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are the sons of God.
Ted Ulle, senior search analyst at New York-based social media agency Converseon, recently sat down with WebmasterWorld video content producer Vanessa Zamora to share some of his latest observations about search engine optimization (SEO) and social media. During their interview, conducted at November's popular PubCon search and social media conference in Las Vegas, Ulle shared his thoughts on how the crowds of PubCon attendees have been getting better each year in large part because of an increased desire to soak up new search and social media information. Ulle also told Zamora why he feels that the strength of session panels at the PubCon event has also grown through the years, providing an overwhelming amount of top content to attendees. Ulle spoke to Zamora about the importance of tracking SEO performance by using good reporting and analytics tools, and why discipline, measurement of return on investment (ROI) and planning are each necessary components when businesses begin using social media for ...
