GLAD I FOUND HIM!

"This album, my first by this artist, is a very nice mixture of music genres -- French Pop, Latin, even Country ("Trois Ans et Demi D'Amour")! I totally love, and keep playing, "Elle Voulet Tout" because of its Brazilian-type beat. It rocks with class!In "Nunca Mas", we have a duo in two lovely languages blended in one great song. (The duo sung beautifully by Patrick and Nilda Fernandez.) I played it at a dinner party and it was very well enjoyed.As for the rest of the songs, they're sung with the emotion the French are known for. What else can I say, I'm Glad I Found Him!"

How does he do it?

"There's a certain kindness & restraint to Patrick Bruel's voice that carries songs that might sound overblown with lesser singers. He knows exactly which intonation to give each song--be it melancholy, hopeful or happy.The production is spot-on, from the luscious Arabic flair of "Au Café des Délices", the Spanish touches of "Nunca Mas" or the country-pop of "Au Bout de la Marelle", which just carries me along every time--the line "here we go!" says it all. Those three, plus the song about a man finally letting go of a woman who doesn't love him enough ("Tout s'efface") make this CD worth buying--but the other songs are certainly not fillers.A definite for lovers of French music--and a great place to start for others."

Awesome! Learn French to really enjoy it!

"Listened to it over and over! REally spectacular - great for a Yoga workout too! Even better when you totally understand the French. A real fan of Patrick Bruel after this album and buying more!"
