"If you're looking for stereotypical, cabaret style music then this CD is for you. With its accordion accompaniment on every song, it will bring to mind beret wearing, broad striped shirted French men and women. Although it says there are various artists, there is really only 1. One woman sings all 13 songs. I can't even tell you her name because it isn't on the cover. I had hoped there would be written words supplied but they weren't. I like having the words even to English songs because I can't always understand everything. So, since I'm still learning French, it would have been very helpful. One song I do really like is titled "J'attendrai". I hope this will help any future listeners when making a decision. Au revoir."
