Vanessa Paradis Reviews:
Vanessa in English 
2009-09-26 - So glad I ordered from Amazon. Recv'd the dvd in a timely fashion. I have listened to it several times and it is great. The only thing I am wishing for now in regard to Vanessa's music is that she would record more in English and that she would record "Waiting on an Angel".
Am I missing something here? 
2009-06-25 - I could have sworn there were other tracks on this. One was in French, which became a dance classic, and still hear time to time in movies and another was a cover of "Oh Lord Won't You Buy Me A Mercedes Benz", which Janis Joplin did famously prior. It may've been a hidden track, not sure. I had this album when it was first released here in the U.S. back in the early 1990's and thought it was on this.
Newcomer 
2008-02-06 - I was intrigued by Vanessa Paradis and heard "Be My Baby" and loved it. So I got this cd as my first one. However, it's got SO MUCH Lenny Kravitz, even his picture on the inside of the cd case, that I think he must have the biggest head on the face of the earth. That's just my honest impression. Here's a French girl, a very young one at that time, singing African American sounding lyrics and the music is very funky, retro, 60's, 70's, whatever. I would of given this four stars for Vanessa's sweet and passionate voice, but there's just too much Lenny over shadowing the whole thing. I am glad I have this cd, but I don't want Lenny Kravitz, I want Vanessa Paradis, which is why I am really looking forward to hearing her new cd. She's so much older now, and I hope it will reflect her true self and artistry. It's all in French. That's a good start. What does anyone think? Am I on track here?
S'wonderful 
2005-07-21 - Lenny Kravitz wrote all the material, with an exeption of one song, that is a cover of The Velvet Underground (I'm Waiting For The Man), played most of the instruments and sang a few lines on one song (Lonely Rainbows). Whole album is sang in english.
Be My Baby, was a big hit in Europe. It sounds like a French Motown song, Sunday Mondays and Your Love Has Got A Handle On My Mind sound like a Dusty Springfield, Petula Clark or Supremes song.
This album is very much retro motown with a feel of sixties and seventies. Vanessa's singin' is great. This is one of the best pop albums from the ninties.
I Love This CD. 
2005-05-01 - I Love This CD. Am a big fan of Vanessa and have many of her CDs, but play this one the most. Have to replace my original CD, as there is now a skip in one of the songs. Guess I play it too much and take it everywhere. This girl can sing :-) This CD has a Jazz feel to it. There is a 60's 70's feel to it as well.
