Excelent voice of this french woman
Even thoug the songs are in french language those capture completely the senses....I think it is the perfect combination of woman singing voice and french language.....great

Piaf at her best
Saw the movie La Vien Rose.... fell in love with Edith all over again. I am transported to Paris at the first song.

Edith Piaf
I was inspired to order this CD after seeing the movie La Vie en Rose about the colorful life of Edith Piaf.
My aim was to hear the real singer rather than the actress in the film.
This CD contained many examples of Ms Piaf's music. The sound quality was excellent and the music enjoyable.
Much of it was familiar, popular songs heard on the radio growing up. The singing is in French and there is no translation in the CD jacket, however this is a small defect.

Edith Piaf: Eternelle
The singing was too brassy, too strident. Not the Edith Piaf I remember on a 33l/3 record I bought in the l960s.

EXQUISITE
I had always known Edith Piaf was a famous French singer, but I had never actually heard her sing. When Marion Cotillard won the Academy Award this year for "La Vie En Rose" I placed the movie on my Wish List and received it as a gift. After watching it I was amazed at and enthralled with Miss Piaf's life and her pure and unique voice. I also purchased two of her cd's, but this one is the best of the two. The quality of the cd is excellent and her voice seems more mature and strong. I treasure this cd and every time I listen to it I think of Edith's life and all of the hardship and obstacles she faced, and the triumph in becoming the most famous and beloved singer in France.
