highly recommended
14-track CD album - Carla Bruni has always had a certain poetry. A definite je ne sai quoi. The grace, style & beauty of this Italian-born, France-raised thirty-something is legendary; her intellect & vitality striking, even formidable. Now as the first lady of France, Carla Bruni is one of the most photographed women of the world but she doesn't want this to affect people's perception of her or her music. She wants the music to speak for itself and here it does.
Good stuff
This album doesn't live up to Carla's previous ones, and though I certainly preferred Quelqu'un M'a Dit, this is a pretty good listen. Her voice is deep and sultry, as always, and at least three of the songs will stay in your head and keep you humming after you're finished listening. A pretty good buy.

Does not disappoint
Nice overall record. Even though I don't speak the language, Carla Bruni is just so much more in French to me. "No Promises" fell short of my expectations because most of the songs were in English. This one is good, though nothing compares to the sexiness of "Quelu' un m'adit".
Enjoyable
I did not know what to expect from Carla Bruni. I ordered all three of her CD's and found them enjoyable. Since I don't understand French, her English CD was rather revealing.
good come-back
carla bruni said in a recent interview that she hopes people will love her music; but if they don't listen to her because she's the first lady of France, she will also understand.
This album is in my opinion, less straight forward than her previous two. Carla experiments with more instrumentations and new sounds. There is a good variation of tunes and some of them take time to really delve into. My favorite is still her first album- simple, unpretentious. This one feels a bit hurried and unpolished.
