Reviews Customer Reviews for Vanessa Paradis      Newcomer      Rating:      I was intrigued by Vanessa Paradis and heard "Be My Baby" and loved it. So I got this cd as my first one. However, it's got SO MUCH Lenny Kravitz, even his picture on the inside of the cd case, that I think he must have the biggest head on the face of the earth. That's just my honest impression. Here's a French girl, a very young one at that time, singing African American sounding lyrics and the music is very funky, retro, 60's, 70's, whatever. I would of given this four stars for Vanessa's sweet and passionate voice, but there's just too much Lenny over shadowing the whole thing. I am glad I have this cd, but I don't want Lenny Kravitz, I want Vanessa Paradis, which is why I am really looking forward to hearing her new cd. She's so much older now, and I hope it will reflect her true self and artistry. It's all in French. That's a good start. What does anyone think? Am I on track here?     Customer Reviews for Vanessa Paradis Cd      S'wonderful      Rating:      Lenny Kravitz wrote all the material, with an exeption of one song, that is a cover of The Velvet Underground (I'm Waiting For The Man), played most of the instruments and sang a few lines on one song (Lonely Rainbows). Whole album is sang in english. Be My Baby, was a big hit in Europe. It sounds like a French Motown song, Sunday Mondays and Your Love Has Got A Handle On My Mind sound like a Dusty Springfield, Petula Clark or Supremes song. This album is very much retro motown with a feel of sixties and seventies. Vanessa's singin' is great. This is one of the best pop albums from the ninties.
