5.0 out of 5 stars it was a real challenge and then...Carla got it so right again !, 19 Jul 2008
By Philippe Le Peutrec (LONDON) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
just bought this record. was seduced by Carla with her sensual and volutuous voice on "quelqu'un..." and i must say i loved "no promises". i I am french so i have some linguistic advantage on this album. ok, tough world, stabbing everywhere, every day. personally had enough of this doom and gloom, so it was nice to get home , put a few candles, pour a glass of wine and put on this album. this was serenity personified , you forget where you are and enjoy this moment. Carla, many thanks for such a jewel. every song is right , just so right ... and if you are not french, who cares, just enjoy the voice , the rhythm and the tranquility... and please chill out !!! you will listening to this album for many years to come... as Carla says... les grands amours !

4.0 out of 5 stars She's the real thing, 24 Sep 2008
By IWFIcon - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
2007's No Promises, made before Carla Bruni became Mrs Sarkozy, was a surprisingly good album considering it's concept. A French-Italian super model setting music to 11 classic poems, including works by the likes of WB Yeats, Emily Dickinson, WH Auden and Dorothy Parker...who wouldn't want to avoid that like the plague?

But here we are, 12 months down the line and Bruni has done it again. Only the one song is in English this time, You Belong To Me, and this proves to be a wise move. The bubbly Je Suis Une Enfant is one highlight, the breathy and sophisticated sound of Le Temps Perdu is another. But in reality there's not really much on the album that you wouldn't want to listen to again and again.

But there is no way that Comme si de rien n'etait can be seen in any other context that being by the wife of the French president, if only to consider the sheer horror of Cherie Blair trying the same after her attempt at a Beatles song in the far east that time. Few will probably care about any political context if we're being honest, unless they are a broadsheet music critic with an agenda, and tackling the album from this perspective does it a disservice. On it's own merits, away from the context of Bruni's very public private life, you can accept it for what it is - another surprisingly good album that will delight and charm you in equal measures.

4.0 out of 5 stars First Lady, First Class, 19 Sep 2008
By Colin Jervis "cjervis" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Has hardly been off my player since I bought it.

A journalist commenting on her recent UK television appearance with Jools Holland said a beautiful woman in a Chanel trouser suit could recite a telephone directory in French and still sound good. But these lyrics are not from a directory. Sometimes childlike, sometimes mature, they are delivered in a breathy voice that at times can sound diffident, but that only adds to its charm.

I speak reasonable French so can understand most of the lyrics, though I did have to look up "Tu es ma came" (something like "you are my drug") but I think even non-francophones would enjoy this collection's ambience, intimate delivery and pared down accompaniment.

5.0 out of 5 stars ohhh wow I am in love now!
I am in love with a voice and though I sadly don't understand the words the emotion touches my heart. Carla could be singing about cleaning out the cooker but I doubt it. Read more
