Title: Lovely
Product review: Madeleine Peyroux's voice is just perfect. It's the kind of voice you just desperately want to listen to--she could be singing the dictionary and I'd be enthralled. But of course, she's working from a brilliant and interesting combination of songs here so it really is a wonderful CD."Dance Me To the End of Love," "Between the Bars," and "You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go" are my absolute favorites. In each, Peyroux brings the song to her--you temporarily forget that anyone else has ever sung it. "Lonesome" is particularly good; just a subtle change in her voice and it all comes together amazingly. A lot of the time I wonder what some wonderful song would sound like in a female singer's voice. Now I ponder more specifically: what would it sound like if Peyroux sang it?Her French is wonderful and so CLEAR which is a blessing for those of us with high school French, who nevertheless want to understand the words.A necessary CD. If only to put you to bed with sweet dreams every night. ;)
