Chanson is several types of song with French lyrics from the Middle Ages to the present. Chanson is defined simply as "a French song", e.g. it uses French lyrics. But it is not truly a "national music of" just because they use French in France when writing or performing songs! (If so, what about Canada which also uses French?)

Musical styles in France include: gregorian - classical - Opera - folk - chanson - nouvelle chanson - cancan - musette - cabaret - popular - yéyé - pop - jazz - rock - hip hop - house - electronic - celtic
