 Rating:  - Carla Bruni overratedOh my. How did she get a recording contract? Anemic. As comical as Tiny Tim in his day. I think it is good that she married well ... Désolé, ce chanteuse n'enchante pas ! Rating:  - Beautiful Music, a must-hear.Bruni's sensual voice and the light melody of the guitar make these songs easy to listen to and quite enjoyable throughout, whether you parlez francais or not. Bruni gives the whole album a rather personal feel because her voice directs the songs, rather than having guitar, drums or bass. Each melody is beautiful, as the songs are well structured themselves, but the overall musical arrangement makes you want to whistle, hum, or even sing along. One might compare her to Avril Lavigne, and the like, but their voices don't reach to what Bruni can achieve. Lavigne and the others seem to feel it's rather necessary to have a guitar pasted on top of their voice to achieve a good sounding song, but in reality, voice is king (or queen). ... Read More: Rating: - Catchy, hopeful, sweetI encountered Carla Bruni pretty much by chance, because somebody happened to mention listening to the song "Quelqu'un M'a Dit" on the radio and he asked me to translate it since I speak French. I am so glad he asked this favor of me, because the song is now one of my favorites. It is incredibly beautiful in a mellow, hopeful, and loving way. Definitely a song I never mind having stuck in my head. After hearing that, I decided I wanted to hear more of Carla Bruni's work. While "Quelqu'un M'a Dit" is still probably my favorite song on the CD, I love the entire thing. There is some great variety. Some of the music is more upbeat. You can definitely enjoy the CD if you don't speak French (several of my friends are now addicted to her music even ... Read More: Rating: - Lovely Songs......I am grad I purchsed this album from Amazon weeks ago. Carla has s very sweet voice and those songs are lovely. It's too bad Amazon doesn't have much information about this set, it's a Korean limited edition, it has a EXTRA booklet translated in Korean, and a 10' by 13' beautiful POSTER! (not the same picture on the cover). Although I don't understand Korean, but the poster is worth it. Rating:  - pretty good...for a modelI bought this CD based on the reviews I've read. I have to say I'm slightly dissappointed. Don't get me wrong, this CD is worth a listen. Is it great or something I'd rave about? No. Carla Bruni's voice is calming and capable, but it lacks depth and character. It's missing a certain flavour that would make her music more interesting. When music is as pared down as this, you need a voice that carries more emotion or depth or at least evoke a certain mood. Take Francoiz Breut or Coralie Clement or even Vanessa Paradis for example, their voices are not powerhouses but they add a bit of flavour to the songs they sing. Carla's guitar playing is more impressive. All that said, I'd recommend this CD as a worthy listen, very suitable for a ... Read More: |
