Editorial Review: Album Description: 14-track CD album - Carla Bruni has always had a certain poetry. A definite je ne sai quoi. The grace, style & beauty of this Italian-born, France-raised thirty-something is legendary; her intellect & vitality striking, even formidable. Now as the first lady of France, Carla Bruni is one of the most photographed women of the world but she doesn't want this to affect people's perception of her or her music. She wants the music to speak for itself and here it does. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Dull...I was curious to hear this CD given Bruni's notoriety over the years. Overall it's a dull outing. The production is virtually identical from song to song, with Bruni's average voice (sounds like a French Dido) mixed far forward with almost no reverb in every song. And there's nary a backing vocal or harmony track anywhere on this CD. Just the same presentation song after song. Was the producer asleep? And the writing? Well the first tune, "Ma Jeunesse", grabbed me until I realized ...

This album is in my opinion, less straight forward than her previous two. Carla experiments with more instrumentations and new sounds. There is a good variation of tunes and some of them take time to really delve into. My favorite is still her first album- simple, unpretentious. This one feels a bit hurried ... Read More Rating: - Does not disappointNice overall record. Even though I don't speak the language, Carla Bruni is just so much more in French to me. "No Promises" fell short of my expectations because most of the songs were in English. This one is good, though nothing compares to the sexiness of "Quelu' un m'adit". Rating: - Good stuffThis album doesn't live up to Carla's previous ones, and though I certainly preferred Quelqu'un M'a Dit, this is a pretty good listen. Her voice is deep and sultry, as always, and at least three of the songs will stay in your head and keep you humming after you're finished listening. A pretty good buy. Rating: - EnjoyableI did not know what to expect from Carla Bruni. I ordered all three of her CD's and found them enjoyable. Since I don't understand French, her English CD was rather revealing.
