4 out of 5 stars Celine's best si D'EUX.......2007-07-08

I will comment on each track individually:

1. ET S'IL N'EN RESTAIT QU'UNE is a very good first track out of the album. I enjoy this one a great deal. It is very modern, and yet, has a flair of POUR QUE TU M'AIMES ENCORE. It reiterates the same topic. The "I-would-do-anything-for-you"-type of song. Very well written by Françoise Dorin, an author who has illustrated herself over the past 30 years in literature, and in movies as well.

2. IMMENSITE has grown on me. I enjoy this one as well. This is an interesting song written by a young author who specializes in writing on lesbian love. This is a well-crafted song.

3. I really like the beat of A CAUSE. This is a little different for a French song by Celine. Once again, Françoise Dorin wrote it. It almost sounds like a piece taken out of a book. Very well crafted as well, with a nice dance beat.

4. JE CHERCHE l'OMBRE is another nice tune written by Lise Payette, born in Verdun, France but educated in Quebec. Interesting choice of texts since she is known to be a feminist in her own right. This song is anything but. It is well-written. It is a very sensual song, overshadowed by a lot of sincerity meant to denote intimacy in the light of love vs. the strict physicial approach.

5. MES PARADIS is a nice song. The tune itself reminds me of LES DERNIERS SERONT LES PREMIERS from D'eux. It is a nice catchy song. It feels like it's been heard before. This being said, it is a nice song on the feeling of longing for her "paradise" that she is seeking.

6. LA DIVA is a great song, which I did not know what to do with originally. I always liked Maria Callas. Her voice is so pure to me. I can see why Celine admires her. The track is nice, and could be a single, based on her show on Canadian TV. Celine mentioned that she has always felt a special connection to La Callas. Maybe a movie in the works? The idea is out. She is proving on the last minute of the song, that she may have the chops. The song is about the despair that the Callas felt throughout her life, and how music rescued her from her dark moments. Celine has had a similar path whereby music has "saved" her from the dull moments of her earlier part of life, where boredom of school set in. Written by Denise Bombardier, a Canadian author.

7. FEMME COMME CHACUNE is one of the songs I like least. The intro reminds me of another song by Celine entitled CHERCHE ENCORE, which has never really been a favorite of mine. Not quite a filler, but just easy to overlook. I don't know the author. This song sounds very French for some reason.

8. SI J'ETAIS QUELQU'UN is an OK song. I don't quite know what to do with this song. Not bad, but I am just on the fence as to liking it. It is a bit dull, and contributes to the CD getting 4 stars.

9. JE NE SUIS PAS CELLE feels like one of Christine Orban. A bit tedious to read with many details. The tune fits to the lyrics, but it is quite boring, and almost depressing. I guess that's what they went for, as it works for that purpose. This reminds me of the song TU NAGES, which is a drag in and of itself (just a personal opinion). It feels like it takes ages to finish.

10. Written by a playwright, LE TEMPS QUI COMPTE reminds me of DESTIN as well. The texture of the lyrics seem to mirror the time spent since D'EUX for some reason. Pretty good soung. More upbeat.

11. LETTRE DE GEORGE SAND A ALFRED DE MUSSET is written by George Sand, a great figure of French literature from the XIX century. It sounds like it's a page of literature that is coming to life. This song, while well crafted lyrically (taken from an actual letter from the author to her lover Alfred de Musset), which means that it almost does not feel like it should be put to a tune. It is working OK though. Not a favorite of mine.

12. ON S'EST AIME A CAUSE is one of my favorite songs on the entire album. It is beautiful, and an extension of track 3 A CAUSE (written by same author). I enjoy listening this song an awful lot. Celine's voice is at its best. It is about the reason why one would fall in love, and fast-forwarding many years, and realizing that the present time requires for love to be established DESPITE many ailments that may have crept into the relationship. It really is a nice reflection on the theory of love and relationships. To me, this song seems to go with MES PARADIS, track # 5 on this album. The progression of these three songs (3,5 and 12) seem to tell a story of their own. Well done.

13. BERCEUSE (lullaby) is an OK song. It sounds like a lullaby too, which is great. Canadian-native Janette Bertrand wrote the song. She is also a comedienne. The only hang-up I have here is that it is hard for me to differentiate this tune from the DIVA song. On that song she mentions being grateful to know the Callas, and that she is the reason why she is on stage, while this one seems to be putting the stress on her life on stage because of her son. It is a bit confusing to me. I know that this is not supposed to be a book, but because the authors are so prominent, I don't seem to be able to separate the two.

So, overall, this is a very good album. My favorite tracks are 1-3, 6 and 12. The least favorite ones are 8, 9 and 11. The others are all good. I think this is a very original concept, which will prove to be another highlight in French music. I would definitely recommend it.

5 out of 5 stars D'Ells.......2007-06-13

5 out of 5 stars Best in a long time.......2007-06-22

This is Celine's best work in a long time, IMO. Her voice is still flawless. It's nice to hear her work with new people, too. The packaging for this album is very nice too.

5 out of 5 stars Wow!.......2007-06-15

Celine really blew me away with this CD. I defiantly recommend this album! Top Five Songs: A Cause, La Diva, Femme Comme Chacune, On S'est Aimé A Cause, Le paradis, Je Cherche L'ombre. The packaging is beautiful, it folds out contains two booklets (liner notes and a glossy photo booklet). The DVD contains clips recording sessions, photo shoots and a video shoot/blooper.

4 out of 5 stars Dion does not disappoint...........2007-06-10

Ok, it's not Jean-Jacques Goldman, and it's not young Celine anymore.

D'elles portrays a collection of songs written by different women from the french and franco-canadian scene. I'll go through them one by one:

Et s'il n'en restait qu'une: 4/5
**** First single off the album, a very powerful and sentimental ballad, you can almost hear the old celine in this one.

Immensite: 4/5
**** A very nice song, second single. Great music by Veneruso, who wrote many songs in celine's last french album. The string arrangements are very nice.

A cause: 3/5
**** A fast-paced , catchy song, kind of melodramatical. Still, i think there's something missing. The arrangements are not perfect, and celine sounds nasal.

Je cherche l'ombre: 5/5
**** One of the best songs in the album, if not the best. Beautiful music, mixing the piano with kenas, violins and accordeon.. quite a la francaise. Celine's voice sounds soft and pure, and then powerful and still pure.

Les paradis: 2.5/5
***** Filler material.. sounds like "Contre Nature" but with less quality in the writing. I skip this one.

La Diva: 4/5
***** Weird song.. Celine sings along Maria Callas,kinda reminds me of "Papillon", but a little more nasal. There's a problem with some high notes, Celine seems to be stretching to get up there. Good song though, you get a few seconds Celine singing lirical.

Femme comme chacune: 2/5
***** Bad song, celine's voice sounds awful, and the song itself is bad contemporary, trashy pop. Skip it

Si j'etais quelqu'un: 3.5/5
***** Nice song.. it varies from soft to bombastic/rocky.. you'll see. Not bad, but forgettable.

Je ne suis pas celle 3.5/5
***** The beginning sounds like "Tu Nages", but not as good as that one. It looks like a Lara Fabian song... too soap-opera dramatic.

Le temps qui compte: 4/5
***** Very nice and catchy song. Also sounds like "Contre Nature", it could be a good choice for a single.

Lettre de George Sand a Alfred de Musset: 2.5/5
***** hmmm Celine whispers too much in this one. Doesn't sound too nice. It's a slow and boring song.

On s'est aime a cause: 5/5
***** Great song, it's a variation from song #3 but a lot better, more ballad-like. It got stuck in my head for some days. I would really like to see this as a single, although I don't think that will happen.

Berceuse: 4.5/5
***** Berceuse, which means "lullaby", is a very beautiful soft song, alla "Memoire d'Abraham", just the piano, the strings and Celine. The lyrics seem to be dedicated to her son, Rene-Charles Angelil.

Amazon.com

While not a soundtrack per se, this suite of songs was inspired by Claude Lelouche's And Now...Ladies and Gentlemen (2001). In the film, French singing star Patricia Kaas portrays a nightclub chanteuse suffering from a brain tumor who falls for a similarly afflicted thief (played by Jeremy Irons.) Given the plotline, it¹s not surprising that the tunes are drawn primarily from the classic chanson tradition. But strangely, Kaas interprets most of them in the maudlin English translations once favored by the Rat Pack, Rod McKuen, and Bobby Darin. Even so, and despite her consistently over-cautious phrasing, the vocals are attractively languid and husky, inflected with a dead-pan world-weariness that Marlene Dietrich would have recognized. However, it would be pleasant to hear Kaas essay this repertoire in a more intimate, warm-toned setting. As it is, her voice is periodically overwhelmed by echo plus poorly calibrated electric bass and keyboard lines. --Christina Roden

3 out of 5 stars Disappointed.......2007-05-19

When we ordered this DVD we thought we would have another Frida Boccara. Instead, we found the music was bland. Also, the songs were all sung in English except one verse of one song.

5 out of 5 stars "And now... Ladies and Gentlemen".......2007-03-14

I loved the movie, saw it several times, that's why I bought the CD and was not disappointed

5 out of 5 stars Ladies And Gentlemen.......2007-01-18

Haunting, captivating,sexy an unbelievable album. The movie "Ladies and Gentlemen" staring Jeremy Irons, patrica Kaas the singer and many other stars is one DVD you must purchase.

5 out of 5 stars Rather touching and beautiful in a "world weary" way!!!.......2007-01-11

I can't get enough of this album at the moment, for some reason! Anyone who cares to look through my reviews will see that this album is quite a strong departure from my usual tastes in music. So I have to say that this album has impressed me, even though it is decidedly not the usual sort of thing I like.

The album consists of chansons, torch songs and standards, mainly sung in English, not that French bothers me at all! (in some ways, I probably would have preferred it if more of the songs were sung in French) However, Patricia Kaas has won me over on this album with her very stylish and touching renditions of these songs. She sings with precision and style. She phrases the songs well, sings with directness and simplicity, and she doesn't resort to anything overwrought or hysterical, overall, her approach is that of a mature and intelligent adult. Does that make any sense?! Probably not. Most of the songs have a melancholy nature and expect a lot of music in minor keys!


This album sounds very good late at night and I like to listen to it whilst having a glass of wine on my own. Yes, I do feel the urge to shed a tear or two when I listen to Piano Bar.

5 out of 5 stars AH! AT LAST A REAL SINGER.......2006-02-26

in an era of falsetto and shrill voices what a pleasure to find a real voice. She sings so richly and deeply where ever you are and what ever you're doing you pause to listen.

5 out of 5 stars AN AMAZING REMASTERED ELO COLLECTION..................2006-11-25

This cd collection of Elo greatest hits is not in chronological order, but it really does'nt matter.There are some edited versions of songs but I really believe Jeff Lynn put alot of care into this remastered gem. These two cds sounds so awesome that the edits really don't take alot out of this collection. Jeff Lynn believed each Elo song should be treated like a single, each single given the time and effort and care to make each single song stand out in it's own way,weather you love or hate the song, Jeff Lynn had that philosophy. This Elo collection defines that Jeff Lynn philosophy. I listen to this collection and I am just amazed at the skill and craftmanship of Jeff Lynn and Elo. Jeff truly is one of Englands greatest single hit makers. This collection is better than the Elo box sets that have been released in the last 16 or so years. the sound quality of these cds is incredibly pristine. This music may sound like gooey 1970s bubblegum music to some, but to me it is amazingly creative structured music that is catchy with rythm and spiritual form. I have to admit when I hear some of these Elo songs I have to crack a smile. Jeff Lynn and the rest of Elo put alot of pride into each song they ever created, this collection shows that. A true must have for Elo fans and music fans in general. The remastering on this cd set is incredible. Note: Jeff Lynn in 1994-1995 engineered for the three remaining Beatles at the time with "Free as a bird" and "True Love", this shows you the respect even the remaining Beatles had for Jeffs amazing talent.............

5 out of 5 stars THE BEST ELO GREATEST HITS COLLECTION.......2006-05-26

This collection is well worth it. I Highly recommend "LIGHT YEARS" to any fan of the Electric Light Orchestra.The amount of songs compaired to other compilations is hard to beat.

4 out of 5 stars Catchy pop with classical touches.......2004-10-29

Electric Light Orchestra was one of the UK's most consistent and successful bands of the 1970s. They had a long string of hits throughout that decade and the first part of the next one. Their sound was characterised by plush harmonies, loads of strings and catchy tunes. These 38 tracks include the overwhelming majority of their hits from the 1970s and the early 1980s plus some great album tracks. My favourites include Livin' Thing with its captivating fiddle, the addictive Sweet Talkin' Woman, the rousing Turn To Stone and others like Wild West Hero Don't Bring Me Down, Mr Blue Sky and 10538 Overture. It may sound like lightweight pop, but it is a skilfully honed, intelligent and cleverly produced style with classical flourishes that always remained accessible. If you like catchy pop with a touch of the orchestral, this album's for you.

5 out of 5 stars A GREAT Album, but...............2004-01-08

Again this is one of ELO's best, with ALOT of their best songs on it, but if you paid the " outragious " price here that Amazon is charging you, then you've been royally ripped off.....sorry.FYE's is selling this same album for $24.00 and change.It is a good album though.

4 out of 5 stars Entrancing stuff.......2001-08-12

My,my,what a diverse taste in music I have.Part of it extends to this heavily enjoyable assortion of superb musical numbers.Particular favourites include the funky,fusion noted number Evil Woman,the jolty,unforgettable Mr.Blue Sky,the brilliant Last Train to London and the heavy bass number Confusion.Born,bred and based in Birmingham myself,it makes me proud such musical talent could emerge from my home city.Definitely one of the best bands of the '70's,and significantly make us remember the decade.I thoroughly recommend this product.

One of my favorite CDs.

If you love this you should also buy the DVD "En Concert." I have it and am absolutely delighted with it and its companion CD of the same name.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent Music.......2007-01-04

My step-daughter laughed when she found out I was listening to this music. I'm a metal head from WAY back, and only discovered Alizee' because one of my friends daughters was playing it. I enjoy the melodies and arrangements, and am looking forward to the 3rd album, coming out sometime this year.

This music is "pop" music in French - however, it is infectious and satisfying in a manner that Christina, Britney and most other American "pop" stars arent. Maybe thats just because its in French, but that does NOT detract from the tight production and just dam good singing.

5 out of 5 stars Even better than her first?.......2006-12-16

I'm not sure...I still don't care for her ballads. And some of her stuff is still kind of silly. But (again), what I like I *really* like. I'm torn to decide which album is best. That's because I'm torn over whether I like "Veni Vedi Vici" or "J'Ai Pas Vingt Ans" more. Not sure. I recommend both albums as well as her live DVD. Her music is (overall) very upbeat, catchy and melodic. I don't speak a lick of French but it doesn't take anything away from the music (for me) at all. I could care less about her 'image' or her 'packaging'. Being in America I am pretty much immune to that stuff. As far as lip-synching live, it doesn't matter. She's *very* easy on the eyes and very charismatic whether she's really singing or not.

5 out of 5 stars Oh mon dieu...Alizée..........2006-03-15

All I have to say is, I hope that more female French speaking/singing artists come out as beautiful and talented as Alizée. I just found a video from a live performance of hers, and I was literally blown away. Although I have no clue what she's singing about, the song was "J'En Ai Marre!" and it was catchy enough to get hooked on.

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful stuff, a must have for any pop/french music lover.......2006-09-08

I love this collection though I'm normally not a fan of pop music. Mylene has a great voice and the music is divine. :D My favorites are Les Mots, C'est une Belle Journée and Desenchantee.

5 out of 5 stars Can't stay away from it, my new best friend !!.......2004-02-02

I only knew 2 of mylene's songs that I heard on a european ststion when I was in medical school, I thought she was great!. But by no stretch of immagination did I think she had this massive great talent as a singer and song writer!
I admit I am still overwhelmed by the double CD set, I'm lost for words to describe the impact this album has on me.

There are 30 magnifisant songs, I can't say that one is better than the other , She will take you on a journey of ballades, pop and nearly classic on occasions.

I can't get over the beautiful ballade "pardonne-moi", where she sings her emotions out to princes of different countries, without having to shout or squeele like others do, you can feel the true emotion and the glory of her singing and writing talents, My God!!!!, it's mind blowing, also"les mots" such a beautiful ballade and one of my favourites has to be "Je te rends ton amour", the clarity and beauty of her voice and the beautiful music of Lourent Boutonant makes an unmissable piece of art!
And on a sunny day or a night out and in the car, "Sans cotrefacon" and "Pourvu qu'elle soint douce" are a great example of how far her talent goes for feel good probably danceable (for those who dance) pop music.

The sound quality and the grace and glory of her voice places her on top of my list of favourite singers, she is number one! and I'm talking about english and french singers!

If you don't have any french CD's start with this , you won't be able to get it out of your head.

5 out of 5 stars Un condensé de bonheur.......2003-09-11

Mylène..... C'est 20 ans de création fine, poétique, entrainante, intelligente, sensuelle. Et un monde où deux mots à peine prononcés par elle nous permettent d'entrer.

Ce BEST OF retrace cette carrière et devra vous donner envie de vous plonger dans l'unvers complet avec ces albums splendides (Innamoramento, Anamorphosée, Ainsi Soit Je, Cendres de Lune, L'autre), ainsi que ses 3 lives qui vous feront comprendre que c'est LA GRANDE !!!

5 out of 5 stars Myléne: Simply Irresistible.......2002-11-14

When this cd came out, I thought: Having all of her albums, will this one be worth buying??...and having indulged in finally buying it, in spite of its expensiveness, the answer is YES!!, no regrets at all....this release is worth every dollar!

Featuring most of her greatest songs on this double cd collection makes the album really a must!... Both cd's have been constantly played in my stereo, discman and car, especially cd number two, which includes three new gorgeous never-released-before songs, all consecutively released as cd singles in France, most notably "Pardonne-Moi" (the third single), a melancholic, sensuous, lush, ballad in the trend of her latest studio album, the excellent "Innamoramento"...."Les Mots" (the first single), a duo with Seal, sung half in french & english....and "C'est une belle journée" (the second single), a happy, tuneful, infectious pop song, sort of in the style of "L'Histoire D'Une Fee, C'est...", the song Myléne created for the "Rugrats in Paris" soundtrack, which is also included. If you have the chance of watching the videoclips of the three aforementioned singles, they're fantastic (I watched them on TV5's international signal).

Besides, this wonderful collection includes new versions for "Maman a Tort", excellent remastered (but sometimes shorter) versions of "Beyond my Control", "Je t'aime Melancolie", et al....and such rarities, not included in her studio albums, like "Effets Secondaires", which ends with "great sound effect", "A Quoi Je sers", "La Veuve Noire".....

The CD Booklet has great photos of Mylene in various moods....In all, you won't be disappointed, a great experience. Buy it!!

5 out of 5 stars I give it one hundred stars if it was posible.......2002-05-11

Hey, I was gratefully surprised whit this CDs, I think that they are the best CDs I own, and believe me, I have a lot.

Reasons?????? You only have to put together all de Albums of the Glorious Mylene and lock the times. Since the first "Maman a tort", the extension is diferent, the version in "Les Mots" are LONGEST. "pourvu quelles soint douces" is an exclusive Remix edit, "Sans Contrefacons" are also longest. "Inamoramento" are a edit one minut shortest than the original analso "L'historie de una fete cest" and ON AND ON, and all the sound are REMASTERED, and sounds better than the originals. I am so hapyy, I broght it. And you?????... you really should buy it too!!!!

5 out of 5 stars Fly Zucchero Sugar Fornaciari.......2007-03-08

Amazing Album! Just as good as the Greatest hits. Zucchero is fabulose!

5 out of 5 stars The Zucchero we all love is back!.......2006-11-22

The expected release of FLY in the US is finally here!
It has all the usual elements of Zucchero,no surprises here. The ever fascination with Louisiana and the Mississipi is present once again with the Gospel Choir and blues guitar riff in Let It Shine (Which is included as a bonus track in English as Shine)the other bonus track is the English version of Occhi (Flying Away).The rest of the tracks is sheer signature Zucchero. However , the track that caught my ear was Cuba Libre. This is no brainer, if you are a Rock'n'Roll fan you will clearly identify this song as a scrambled/reshuffled California Dreamer by The Pappas and the Mammas,flute and all. Again no surprises here, Zucchero has done this in the past. If you rememeber well, he took Clapton's Wonderful Tonight; sped the tempo up and came up with Wonderful World, he even had Clapton as guest guitarrist!
The hand of legendary producer Don Was is noticeable in the first track Bacco perbacco, very funky a la Zucchero.The rest of the album for our delight is the Zucchero we all love, soulful and heartfelt ballads of love,fidelity,Blues and Rock'n'Roll. An essential in every Zucchero fan's collection.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars C'est magnifique.......2005-12-03

This album is really outstanding. I like most of the songs on the CD, especially "Tant que c'est toi", "J'avais quelqu'un", "Croire" and "Qu'y a-t-il entre nous?"
Natasha has indeed a wonderful voice. I really recommend it.
Bonne écoute!

5 out of 5 stars Never regret.......2005-08-10

Natasha is an amazing singer. She has a powerful and sexy voice. Every song in this disc has a special and distinctive feeling that shows how Natasha's talents have been grown and developed to maturity. Buy this CD, listen and feel it. You won't regret it.

4 out of 5 stars C'est beau!.......2005-05-14

This is at least Natasha St-Pier's third album, and definitely her best effort to date. This album has a more varied style that shows off Natasha's fresh and beautiful voice in catchy arrangements. The influence of Pascal Obispo comes through, especially on guitar. My favorite tracks are Tant Que C'est Toi and Chacun Pour Soi, although they are really all pretty good and grow on you with repeating listening. Now one of Quebec's very best female singers, Natasha St-Pier and Isabelle Boulay are both in a better place than Celine Dion.

5 out of 5 stars Every title on the CD is great.......2005-03-29

This CD has good sound and is well orchestrated. In the past several years, I have found that
there are many CD's that had only two or three tracks that I like. That seems to be a complaint
by many people, and it is a reason why the music download services are so popular among
consumers. I like CD's where the whole CD is music I like. That being said, I was extremely
pleased with "L'instant d'après." Francophone music is expensive in the United States, and I felt
that my money was well spent with this CD.

I was pleased with the technical qualities of Natasha St-Pier's voice, as well as all the
arrangements and instrumentation on the whole album. "L'instant d'après" was a welcome
addition to my Francophone rock collection. I look toward adding additional titles from Natasha
St-Pier.

5 out of 5 stars A wonderful album from an artist who was new to me!.......2004-11-13

These are beautiful songs with powerful lyrics, a compelling voice and very creative musical arrangements. Natasha really offers something enduring and special. I get the feeling that people will be enjoying her recordings years and decades from now!

    Customer Reviews:

    5 out of 5 stars I love this CD.......2007-04-09

    I really LOVE the song "É Issi Aí (The Blower's Daughter)." I hadn't heard the original Damien Rice version from the movie "Closer" and listened to it after reading the reviews here. I think the Portuguese version on this record is superior. I get so much more feeling from it than Damien Rice's flat version. I really like the other songs as well. If you would like some emotion in your music, I would buy this record.

    1 out of 5 stars WHAT A DISASTER!.......2007-03-28

    I bought this CD in order of listening to something from Brazil. This is the worst thing I've ever listened in my life. And the bad thing is one information I had from friends of mine in Brazil, Both Ana and Seu Jorge have avoided to say during shows that the song "É isso ai" it's just a version (I guess composed by a musician called Damien Rice), as if they were the composers, this is the worst thing one artist could do. They said that "DURING A TV PROGRAM CALLED "ALTAS HORAS", WHILE ANA WAS SINGING THIS SONG, APPEARED BELOW ON TV, THEIR NAMES, AS COMPOSERS. WHAT IS THAT, THE MOST OUTRAGEOUS THING TO DO, SIMPLY DON'T BUY IT, IT'S A DISASTER!
    IF YOU WANT REALLY GOOD MUSIC FROM BRAZIL DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME WITH THESE POOR MUSICIANS, BUY "TOM JOBIM" THE GREAT MASTER FROM BRAZIL.



    5 out of 5 stars Maravilhoso.......2006-12-05

    I think this is a great CD. While it's pretty mellow, Ana and Jorge have such a commanding presence and add a level of subtle intensity. Gotta listen to "E Isso Ai"!

    5 out of 5 stars A Great Album.......2006-11-17

    Without knowing any Brazilian or Portugese, this is still a great album. The energy the two singers have with each other and the audience is contagious, to say nothing of the high quality songs (music, instrumentation, performances, etc.) After having this CD for nearly two years now (I think), it still remains one of my favorites and most frequently played.

    5 out of 5 stars Amazing combination of voices.......2006-06-15

    This album is just unique!!! Starting with 3 songs played by the rough-but-sweet voice of Seu Jorge and than combined with the strong toning voice of Ana Carolina makes the duo just perfect!
    Dispite a portuguese version of the song The Blower's Daughter from the movie Closer, Ana Carolina and Seu Jorge meet a refine tune + a good selection of the bests hits from both artists. It gives you a soft samba with Carolina, bossa with Problema Social and soft brazilian rock & MPB for the remaining ones.
    Definitely, it's a good pick...
