Rien de rien
The love that I have for this woman is profound. Four years ago, our French teachers took us to the cinema and we watched the film 'La Vie en Rose' with Marion Cotillard who happened to be magnifique as Mademoiselle Piaf. Anyway, the music, the film, the fashion, Edith Piaf herself. Ah! It was all too sublime. It really made me love the language even more and I'd love to take up French again and return to the magical city of Paris.
I've listed some of my favourite Edith Piaf songs. She was an amazing artist. The French's answer to Billie Holiday. Beautiful, troubled, talented and incredibly captivating.
Voici...
- La Vie en Rose
- Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien
- Padam Padam
- L'homme à la moto
- Milord
- Sous le ciel de Paris
Bisous! xxx
