5 out of 5 stars Fantastic Album...A Great Surprise!!.......2005-04-16

Okay, I actually bought this album from Amazon at the suggestion of a blogger and I have to say this album is a fantastic surprise! It's just shocking...I was a bit skeptical about someone singing soul music in French, but this was a nice surprise. I've yet to put it down. It's such a great album!

5 out of 5 stars Parlez-Vous Francaise?...........2005-04-01

...if not don't worry because not speaking french doesn't make this any less of a wonderful experience. Corneille's spirit comes through on every song. The music creates a vibe that is undeniable and will have you humming along within seconds of the opening bar. So my advice is ignore the possible language barrier and follow the groove. (if you really wanna know what he is singin' about buy a french/eng. dictionary because the lyrics are great)

5 out of 5 stars Simply amazing!.......2005-03-07

On a study abroad trip to france, I picked this cd up and (since then) have not put it down. Corneille has the voice of silk and his lyrics are a mix of complexity and beauty; you find yourself feeling Corneille's emotion and sadness on "seul au monde" and feeling like you want to go out and test your own pick up lines on "avec classe". Corneille has all the soul of american counterparts like Case, Glenn Lewis, and other r&B crooners, except fo the fact that his lyrics are original and are, of course, in french. But the jewel of this album has to be "comme un fils"...Its simply beautiful and was THE song that got the most play on French radio last year. Believe me, unlike other cd's, every song on this cd is great and you will find yourself skipping nothing. You simply HAVE to get this CD!

5 out of 5 stars The Best rnb album since Born to do it.......2005-02-23

Corneille is simply put, the best thing to happen to French hip hop since MC Solaar 15 years ago. His lyrics are fresh and smart, smooth and powerful as he sings about love and innoccence, as well as the Rwandan genocide which took away his family and childhood friends. The result is a fantastic album of various musical origins, just like the singer: African, Canadian and French. He can go from picking up a girl on the street (Avec Classe) to sing about Rwanda( Parce qu'on vient de loin) Racism (Toi), celebrity (reves de star). The album's best being Ensemble a fantastic song. Corneille is mature above his age, and the result is a heartbreaking, smooth and sometimes jubilant rnb album that proves that somewhere there is hope for French Hip hop and soul music, if kids issued of immigration embrace their routes and integrate them in contemporary music!! Vive Corneille

5 out of 5 stars fantastic album.......2005-02-16

Every song on the album is brilliant. I have to concur with one of the reviewer, when he sings about live every day as if its your last, you sit up and listen. His music really grabs you. A must buy.
