I have read some of the other reviews and I am appalled. Someone is fixated on the fact she used to be a model. Another one compares her to Britney Spears or Lindsay Lohan... Obviously, these people do not speak French. Because if they did they would realize that Bruni's lyrics (mostly written by her) are fantastic. And this is what really matters here, not her looks. These poetic songs are also very well interpreted: Bruni's soft voice matches the lyrics, she makes them come to life. It is songwriting at its best. If you speak or understand French, you won't be disappointed.
