"So Camille Javal picked a wicked name, became a famous model, actress and vocalist. This set is great and features all the songs she's done, which happen to be great pop songs. Alot of people dismiss her talents, which is a pity. These songs are quite funny and sexy in different ways. Her greatest song is definitely "Harley Davidson" but her version with Serge Gainsbourg (the earlier one, rather than the Jane Birkin version) of "Je t'aime, moi non plus" is more appealing because there is no english accent but this version is a little off key....still great. All of B.B.'s songs are great!! If one is interested in 60's french pop music....this one's for you!"
VIVE LA BRIGITTE!

"Short of taking a trip to Paris, this box set of songs by Brigitte Bardot is the next best thing. I don't speak much French and understand even less. . . but with Brigitte's voice tripping its way through these songs, language is no barrier.
Brigitte was and is and always will remain "Paris and France and the 1960's" -- she is the eternal reminder of a truly happy and romantic and lighthearted time. All I can say is I love this musical collection of a truly 'unique' French and international personality. -- P.S. And she loves animals and animal protection. Thanks Brigitte for everything!"

"This is such a fantastic, well-rounded collection of BB's recordings, I don't see how anyone can give it anything but 5 stars. Includes a very nice booklet with even nicer photos!!!"
Le charme et l'émotion

"Cette triple compilation de Bardot recense presque toutes les chansons qu'elle a chantees y compris des inedits (qui, comme "La belle et le blues" sont loin d'etre des fonds de tiroir). Bien sur on a tous les grands classiques pour lesquels elle est est reconnue mais au-dela il y a des perles que l'on ne trouve pas ailleurs comme le tres beau "La chasse" -la face 2 de son dernier 45 tours de 1982 et peut-etre sa chanson la plus aboutie, la plus emouvante. On y trouve aussi ces tres jolies chansons melancoliques que sont "Je reviendrai toujours vers toi", "Une histoire de plage", "Un jour comme un autre", "A la fin de l'ete" ou "Depuis que tu m'as quittee" ainsi que quelques duos comme le sympathique "Tiens, c'est toi" avec Jean-Max Riviere (celui a ecrit les paroles d'a peu pres les deux tiers des chansons de BB). Enfin la compilation se termine sur quelques versions en langue etrangere dont le joli "Sei arrivato amor mio" (dont la version francaise n'est bizarrement pas sur cette compilation). Le livret de 30 pages est tres complet, avec beaucoup de photos, et il donne toutes les indications sur la discographie de BB."
