Here's a preview of the text for the writing challenge, when you're ready click the start button above:

- Who is your favourite singer? - When I was fifteen years old, I loved listening to Michel Berger. I found his songs incredible! My favourite song was "La groupie du pianiste" because Berger was a great piano player. Today, I prefer Ben Mazué because I love the lyrics of his songs! And you, who is your favourite artist? - I have always been a fan of Garou. I know all of his songs by heart and I also went to see him in concert!

Clever stuff happening!
