Patricia Kaas has their fans waiting more than five years on this album! A wait that was worth it! The whole album is the perfect soundtrack for a journey to the Paris of the 30s and 40s of the last century. While listening to One is reminded in a small secluded smokey bar in St Germain. In some songs you can feel the great times of the cabarets. For all the nostalgia, the CD is anything but old-fashioned. Patricia Kaas makes the leap of French chanson music in a time modern aesthetic image to transform. "Kabaret" is completely different from the rather supercooled album "Pianao Bar". They breathed every song in the necessary emotions, so sometimes you have in mind, as Mrs Kass has recorded the album. Especially worth hearing are the deutschsprchigen songs "Happiness knows only minutes", and "Where are the Clowns". Other highlight of the album is "Le jour se leve", "Kabaret", and the Pearl "Et s`il fallait le faire". Conclusion: Fans of French chansons will be thrilled by the album. An ideal plant to be whisked away on cold winter evenings in the melancholic French chanson world!
