Album Description
14-track CD album - Carla Bruni has always had a certain poetry. A definite je ne sai quoi. The grace, style & beauty of this Italian-born, France-raised thirty-something is legendary; her intellect & vitality striking, even formidable. Now as the first lady of France, Carla Bruni is one of the most photographed women of the world but she doesn't want this to affect people's perception of her or her music. She wants the music to speak for itself and here it does.

 love it as much as her first CD August 13, 2008
Claudia Goedde (Oceanside, California USA)
6 out of 7 found this review helpful
Her music is just sweet, bluesy, dreamy and so relaxing- It makes you drift off and slow down, which is something you can't get enough of in this hectic day and age. Plus, even my wild 3 year-old boy approves of it and totally mellows out. I would recommend it and buy it for my friends:-)
Decent album December 8, 2008
A. Durnell (PA)
I am not sure I like this as well as her older albums, but it is still pretty digestable.
Soothing CD - I like her voice January 7, 2009
R. Page (Sterling, VA United States)
Love this CD. First saw her perform on the TODAY show and immediately ordered the CD. She has such a pure, beautiful voice. I like every cut on the CD.
Sultry alto, and also First Lady of France! January 21, 2009
Anthony M. Faaborg (US Air Force worldwide)
All but two of the songs on this CD are in French (one of the remaining songs is in English, and one is in Italian). If you take the time to do the translation, you will find that the French seem to have no compunction about certain subjects English-speaking audiences find a bit uncomfortable. Carla Bruni reinforces this idea, for example comparing certain female body parts to a chrysanthemum.
Even if you don't bother to do the translation, you'll hear a sultry woman's voice, singing with feeling and verve. Although the songs are all similar (including the English "You Belong To Me" and the Italian "Il Vecchio e il Bambino"), they have an easy-listening, smooth-jazz feel that makes nice background music.
This is not a "deep" set; rather, it's a set of songs by a woman who clearly has feeling for the words she's singing, and is happy to share those moods with the rest of us.
Worth getting and supporting November 7, 2009
R. Rotondi
I was surprised by the richness and textures of this CD which I got after watching a documentary on Ms. Bruni. I highly recommend it. I play it weekly. Great production values, she is a master melody-creator/artist.
