Reviews Customer Reviews for 75 Chansons chanteuse extraordinaire Rating: While the first cd is technically poor (much noise and static), the chanteuse is riveting. Maybe you can pretend that you are listening to her on a radio of that time. The second disk is technically much better with a few exceptions, and of course the chantuese... I am writing this before I have listened to the third disk.
Customer Reviews for 75 Chansons Cd Little Sparrow still rendering us helpless with her voice Rating: Well...rendering me helpless ,at least.
I am listening to this 3-CD set as I type this,and I am marveling at the depth of emotion in her voice.She was a little waif of a woman,but her voice could have guided ships through the fog.Unbelievably powerful,fraught with emotion in every note.
I am trying to learn French,and immersing myself in her music has helped.
Of all of her torch songs,my favorite is "Adieu,Mon Couer." Without understanding most of the words,(until I translated them)I still feel the emotion she is feeling.
She was and will always be a treasure.
May I suggest that you buy/rent "La Vie en Rose," the movie made about Piaf last year? It will kill you,but in a good way.
