"Just about a week ago, a friend of mine introduced me to this CD.

Not on purpose, mind you-he just popped it in the CD player in the car. I was amazed from my first listening experience how comfortable and gently beautiful the lyrics AND instrumentation blend together. My favorits at this early stage (although I admit I'm completely addicted to this CD) are Je t'aime...Les Vidanges Du Diable....Le Noceur... & Samedi Soir. My knowledge of the french language (at best) is very elementary...but I'm learning. And Francis Cabrel makes it very easy to want to learn more."

"I simply love it. A co-worker at a store I worked at in Boston used to bring it in to play, and gave me a copy for Christmas, probably back in 1994 or so. The songs, and oh...that voice! I don't know French, and maybe that's part of the reason I can play it over and over, because I don't understand the lyrics, so I never do get tired of them! However, there are times when I wish I knew what he was singing about, but the literal English translations that I can find simply have no feeling to them, let alone make much sense. I also have a few other CDs of his, and am dying to get the latest DVD! If anyone can help with they lyrics - and the meaning the songs convey, please let me know! Until then, ignorance is still bliss..."
