Customer Reviews

Not what it sounds like.
I bought this CD expecting some classic sounding French music. Well ... it sort of fullfills that descrption. The songs and melodies are definitely French classics. However, the performances are very bland, it sounds like most was done on ... keyboards. Gone are the authentic instruments like accordions and mandolins and in are ... synth strings. The reviewer that said that this sounds like elevator music nailed it right on the head. I love the music, but I hate the way it's done.
I am going to keep looking for something that has authentic content AND instrumentation.

Comme-ci, comme ca...
Although the instrumentals are nice, this CD wasn't quite what I thought it would be. For some reason I thought the songs would be sung, but instead it's all instrumental. If that's what you prefer, then you probably would enjoy this CD... I was just looking for something that included the lyrics; I wanted a collection of classic French songs sung by the original artists. This is definitely not it... guess I didn't do my homework. C'est la vie!

C'est Magnifique
This is a wonderful CD! I love it. All of the pieces are instrumental and are extremely relaxing, mellow, and romantic. I have the Ultra Lounge "A Bachelor in Paris" CD which contains many of the same songs. The difference is while the Ultra Lounge version is definately more upbeat and kitchy (loungy), this CD gives you more of the feeling that you are sitting in a streetside cafe in Paris. The CD crosses all age barriers...I love it, my friends love it and my parents love it too. So, if you long for the Parisian way of life...get this CD, make yourself a latte, turn off the lights, light some candles and enjoy.
