Outrageously easy on the ear
I bought this expecting very little. Bruni's throaty whisper is a little ridiculous, yes, but the gentle, upbeat music quickly infiltrates your consciousness. We now play it all the time!
Beautiful and laid back
I cannot add anything else to what has already been written about this album. It is one of my favourites to relax to. It makes no difference to me personally that all the songs are in French, it is just the sound of her voice that is so wonderful.
The guiter sounds good as well. Some of the songs are very catchy. I think track 5 is my favourite.
Just beautiful.
So glad a chance read through a friends old copy of the Observer Music Monthly led me to check out Carla Bruni. Who'd have thought it - a beautiful supermodel here found making even more beautiful music.
Of course it helps to have some romantic love for things French - but this is a thing of beauty that should entrance so many more too. Carla has a great sounding, characterful, rich voice, not only helped by the fact that she is using one of the most beautiful sounding languages in the world, but also by the fact that she is singing songs laden with hooks, texture and wonderful intimate, sparkling production.
The arrangements of the guitars - both nylon and steel string used here - behind the vocals is just as sublime - some great lead steel guitar parts. Yes, I do hear some similarities with Norah Jones' band and some of her songs too, and I loved the first Norah album. This has the same spell as that first Norah album had, before it became so huge and overplayed.
It's become my album of the summer, and goes well with things like the Divine Comedy, Bebel Gilberto and Nick Drake - those albums that are a treat to your ears and open your soul.
