Beauty of Melancholy

What are we to think when a rather battered voice to droughts guitars texts croaks such as: "All should demand from the authorities, a law against loneliness, and that no one will forget"?
It is not easy to explain why this CD develops a so incredible magic.
Here sings a woman who has lived for years as a top model at the top in the world of beautiful appearance, and show their face and voice clear traces of this life. Anyone who has heard this CD, Carla Bruni immediately believes that loneliness amid the glamor of which she told in interviews with her more than an empty phrase.
Sometimes it sounds like, as if Leonard Cohen antemortem risen as chansonniere again. Here she manages a link between simple beauty and relaxed melancholy that Cohen so never could achieve, and which will be subject to a more beautiful, life-experienced, french singing woman named Carla Bruni.
PS: Anyone who spends a couple long winter evenings alone or, even better, without insert this CD, which is simply not going to help.
