4 out of 5 stars Sanson's "Amoureuse".......2000-11-21

I first heard this album in 1974/75 while I was a student in Quebec. This was Veronique Sanson's first album, and my first experience with her music. From the time I first heard it, I was a Sanson fan.

The album starts with "Amoureuse", a song of forbidden love that has been covered by various artists in several different translations and whose music at least may (or may not!) be recognizable by anyone who was around at that time.

Sanson has a unique gift for combining what are often rather sad lyrics with upbeat bouncy music, drawing you into the song, as in "Tout est casse, tout est mort". She also sings songs of happier times and places, such as "Mariavah" and "Bahia".

Among my favourites are "Pour qui" (Who is it for, this flame burning in my heart?) "Besoin de personne" (I needed nobody, when he came into my life".

Included are a couple of very short, almost throw-away songs such as "Pour les Michel" (no words, just humming, to a lovely melody) and "Dis-lui de revenir", which makes its point, but could perhaps have been developed into a longer song.

At only about 25 minutes total length, this album seems short by today's standards but Sanson's work is so well-done that you don't feel short-changed at all, and it's well worth the money, especially for Vero's fans.

    4 out of 5 stars Surprisingly Good!.......2004-08-04

    Veronique Sanson and Stephen Stills were an item for a while and some of Stephen's style inevitably rubbed off on Veronique. Listen to "On m'attend la bas" and you'd swear that was a Stephen Stills lick. That's Veronique playing guitar by the way.. A great album all the way around..

    5 out of 5 stars The Great Unknown.......2001-03-09

    Le Maudit, made in 1974, is an exceptional album by a young artist at the peak of her powers. Veronique Sanson was a 25 year-old Parisian, and had recently moved to the States after a whirlwind romance with Rock God Steve Stills. Her songs, mostly in French, betray her sense of disappointment with her marriage and life away from France. But they are wrapped in musicianship of the highest order. The title track is the stand-out... It means " The Cursed One " - and it's effectively an apology to the Frenchman she abandoned, Michel Berger. She concedes that " The pain has wiped out her sin. " You don't need to understand French to like this album - but it helps. Otherwise think of Joni Mitchell in her "Blue" period, or Rickie Lee Jones in the 1980s and you've some references.

        I first heard Veronique Sanson while browsing in an art gallery in Paris, she was performing "Une odeur de neige"..."The smell of snow" and I fell in love with her voice at that moment. For those of you familiar with Ward Swingle and the "Swingle singers" of the 60's, this track is going to bring back memories. Her voice is powerful and broad, with the ability to jump octaves like an operatic "coloratura". If you like female vocalists from Atrid Gilberto to Nina Simone...Veronique will not disappoint!

        Veronique's best album selon moi, is Sans Regrets. The tremour of her strong voice, the soul that she pours out in each song, and a style that anyone from a teenager to a golden ager can appreciate. Definately check out songs like "Il est Rentré", "Jusqu'à la tombée de jour", "Une odeur de neige", "Comme le feu du ciel" and "Panne de coeur". I can hear her voice even now. A real classic artist.

        Barbara is the best female creator of the french chanson in the 60s, Véronique, who admires her, in a total different way is the best one of the 70's.

        5 out of 5 stars This best of is a must!!!!!.......2002-03-09

        This is Véronique Sanson's first best of in 30 years of non stop success.

        If you haven't discovered her talent yet, this is a good opportunity to measure how unique she is as a songwriter, singer and piano player.

        You can listen to "Amoureuse", "On m'attend là-bas", "Quelques mots d'amour","Bouddha", "Ma révérence"...

        Véronique has had a huge influence on other French singers and is considered as one of the best French singer/ songwriter of our time.

        5 out of 5 stars Fom a butterfly to a star.......2004-07-01

        Probably her best CD.
        As well as this cd, I've got the one with these songs sung by Michel Berger who wrote them, and it's funny to think how 'together' but separately (as Berger died before Sanson made this cd) they've produced this collection of songs at their best.

        For once not written or composed by herself, the songs gain energy being sung by her, while they retain some of Michel Berger's gentleness. The two styles have blended very harmoniously to produce this tonic as well as dreamy, slightly intoxicating collection.

        5 out of 5 stars Outstanding! Two Thumbs up!.......2002-07-07

        One of Veronique Sanson's best album...Though it is the first time she sings songs she did not write herself, this album has a special meaning for her: most of those songs were "love messages" Michel Berger sent to her via his albums though out his life.

        Now, hearing Veronique sing those songs is very moving, since Michel Berger died 10 years ago.

        One of my favorites are "Lumiere du jour","La minute de Silence".
        Michel Berger must be very proud of her.

        5 out of 5 stars Sanson's "D'un papillon a une etoile" shines.......2000-10-26

        I admit to my biais. To begin with, in my opinion, Sanson can do no wrong. I've been a fan of Veronique Sanson (on and off - I lost track of her for a while, due to the difficulties of getting French music in English Canada and now I'm like a kid at Christmas, catching up!) for 25 years. In this, her latest CD, she sings not her own material, but the songs of Michel Berger. Berger, a singer-songwriter, composer and producer, was well-known in the French-speaking world. He produced Sanson's first two albums "Amoureuse" and "De l'autre cote de mon reve". He died of a heart attack in 1992 at the age of 44.

        A songwriter could not ask for a finer interpreter than Vero Sanson and there's not a bad cut in the entire album, which is both tribute and love song to Berger.

        Accompanied by lush strings directed by Paul Buckmaster, Neal Wilkinson on drums, Leland Sklar on guitar, and others, this is a fine introspective and retrospective collection of lovely music and intelligent lyrics ranging from material written in the early 70s to just a little before Berger's premature death.

        I just acquired this CD and have been playing it non-stop since I got it. My particular favourites at this point are "Lumiere du jour" - you can hear the raw emotion in Sanson's voice particularly on the chorus; and "Chanson pour un fan", a song of love and affection dedicated to the writer's fans.

        4 out of 5 stars A MOST FITTING TRIBUTE.......2000-10-18

        Only VERONIQUE SANSON could pay a tribute like this to her first producer who really got her career going back in 1972.MICHEL BERGER who died in 1992 was also FRANCE GALL's beloved husband.He wrote over 400 songs in 20 years.VERONIQUE has chosen well, but the most stunning aspect are the arrangments who are sometimes quite different from the originals.That's the reason i like that record, VERONIQUE's best in years.Go for it, if you like pop music done with taste

        4 out of 5 stars A strange, haunting ambiance..........2000-01-23

        I'm surprised no one has commented on this CD. The big hits were "Le Paradis blanc" and "Chanson pour une fan," very good songs, but not the best, in my opinion. That honor would go to "Diego, libre dans sa tete," with its haunting vocals and ripping guitar solo (which is perhaps what kept it off the airwaves). Other very good songs include "Les Princes des villes," "L'Amour est la," and "Pour me conprendre." I usually can't stand pop music, but this is better than anything I've heard by Celine Dion and Patricia Kaas. In fact, every song on this CD could've been a hit; there's not a bad tune here (although admittedly a bit repetitive in terms of arrangement and tone).

        I picked up this CD a few years ago at a stop over at Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris. I have listened to it a million times since then... I love her powerful voice and the wonderful rhythm. I'm ready for a new Sanson CD -- and just noticed that Amazon has other Sanson CDs!

        Being French I've known Veronique for years, I picked up this album because I was missing her voice and her energy...Well what a treat, this CD is jamed with great songs wonderful music and a whole lot of artists dueting with Veronique... Do not be afraid if you don't speak French the rythms and the music are simply of the highest possible quality...and her voice, if you listen to it once you'll understand what I mean...What an artist!!

        5 out of 5 stars Veronique's best songs in bold symphonic arrangements.......2000-09-19

        I am a great fan of Sanson's and this album is one of my favorites because it is different: in it, she managed to give a new twist to her most famous tunes. By using this wonderful orchestra from Eastern Europe, her music becomes stronger, timeless, glorious. Her powerful voice is a perfect fit to symphonic arrangements. She didn't forget to include "classic sanson" parts of solo piano (especially in "Mortelles Pensees", "Je serai la"), always beautiful and truly her own style.
