Edith Piaf - Exclusive (2024 Remastered) '2024

Tracks list

Edith Piaf is almost universally regarded as France's greatest popular singer.
Still revered as an icon decades after her death, "the Sparrow" served as a
touchstone for virtually every chansonnier, male or female, who followed her.
Her greatest strength wasn't so much her technique, or the purity of her voice,
but the raw, passionate power of her singing. (Given her extraordinarily petite
size, audiences marveled all the more at the force of her vocals.) Her style
epitomized that of the classic French chanson: highly emotional, even
melodramatic, with a wide, rapid vibrato that wrung every last drop of sentiment
from a lyric. She preferred melancholy, mournful material, singing about
heartache, tragedy, poverty, and the harsh reality of life on the streets; much
of it was based to some degree on her real-life experiences, written
specifically for her by an ever-shifting cast of songwriters. Her life was the
stuff of legend, starting with her dramatic rise from uneducated Paris street
urchin to star of international renown. Along the way, she lost her only child
at age three, fell victim to substance abuse problems, survived three car
accidents, and took a seemingly endless parade of lovers, one of whom perished
in a plane crash on his way to visit her. Early in her career, she chose men who
could help and instruct her; later in life, with her own status secure, she
helped many of her lovers in their ambitions to become songwriters or singers,
then dropped them once her mentorship had served its purpose. By the time cancer
claimed her life at age 47, Piaf had recorded a lengthy string of genre-defining
classics — "Mon Légionnaire," "La Vie en Rose," "L'Hymne à
l'Amour," "Milord," and "Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien" among them — that many
of her fans felt captured the essence of the French soul.
