Seductive sophistication - By: Dominic Swayne, 07 Aug 2008 
Each song is a gem. The voice is low, seductive & disarmingly charming. One can listen to this selection again & again...and again without tiring of it. That Carla Bruni should be France's First Lady only adds to the frisson.
Ode to Carla Bruni (in French) - By: Thomas, 26 Jul 2008 Si Carla la radieuse murmure à mon oreille
"L'amoureuse", "Ta tienne" ou "Je suis une enfant",
J'ai "illico presto" l'intime sentiment
Qu'elle et moi, quelque part, sommes un peu pareils...
mellow and relaxing - very distinctive - By: S. Sampson, 21 Jul 2008 
I bought this on holidayin France - I already had Carla's other two albums. I have to say that I much prefer this to No Promises - the words seem to fit so much better with the music. The sound is very distinctively Carla, mellow & very beautiful. If you liked her first album, you will no doubt like this too.
review - Carla bruni - By: Madonna, 19 Jul 2008 
I like the music & the songs - but Carla is not the best person to be "singing" them. Her vocal ability is not good - she tends to be flat & out of tune & it spoils the final result.
it was a real challenge and then...Carla got it so right again ! - By: Philippe Le Peutrec, 19 Jul 2008 just bought this record. was seduced by Carla with her sensual & volutuous voice on "quelqu'un..." & i must say i loved "no promises". i I am french so i have some linguistic advantage on this album. ok, tough world, stabbing everywhere, every day. personally had enough of this doom & gloom, so it was nice to get home , put a few candles, pour a glass of wine & put on this album. this was serenity personified , you forget where you are & enjoy this moment. Carla, many thanks for such a jewel. every song is right , just so right ... & if you are not french, who cares, just enjoy the voice , the rhythm & the tranquility... & please chill out !!! you will listening to this album for many years to come... as Carla says... les grands amours !
