"There are singers or groups who have their moment of glory, they have some hits during a short period of time, then they are forgotten or they survive in the nostalgia circuit performing always the same songs.True artists are able to succeed during decades disregarding the current music style. Many artists who reached fame and popularity since the 60s to the 80s are still succeeding today, they all have had their up'n'downs, they know that now they are not highly dependant on their chart entries, they have already gained their own unique places in Pop music world, and they are always there. That is the case of Sylvie Vartan. This Anthology contains some French versions of American songs as well as Italian songs and French originals written for her. Sylvie Vartan has a very wide vocal range and she's able to sing wonderfully either slow ballads, rock, uptempo ballads or dance music. Some of these songs were great commercial hits for her, some others were recorded as albums tracks. With an enduring successful recording career, Sylvie Vartan appears to be one of the most interesting artists in today's French music scene, in this Anthology you can listen to some of the many beautiful songs she has recorded. Enjoy it."
