Edith Piaf!!! Padam! Padam! Padam!
Oh, how much I love this woman's voice, her attitude, her legacy. I love how she cuts off the applause at the beginning with that sharp had gesture. Silence! ('Silence!' should be read as the French word, of course) And I am SO glad Marion Cotillard got an oscar nomination. I hope she wins. She deserves it. [Edited 1/22/08 11:43am] | |

She's got a stop-what-you're-doing-and-listen voice. She makes me wish I knew French better. [Edited 1/22/08 12:31pm] | |

Judy Garland is just amazing, but we can't compare both of them. All her songs remind me of my country, she is a great story teller and she means every single word she sings, truly magic. "Girly Man Man Man..... Kill her kill her kill her" | |

It just means yer a US fag and I'm a Euro fag. We suck no matter which one we prefer. Both were tragic diva's. Judy wore more lipstick. Edith was more passionate. | |

OMG I know when I heard this I screamed, so disrespectful and so unecessary!I can only assume you don't know the TV advert I was referencing. No offence meant to the truly unique voice of Piaf. I know very little of her, to be honest, but with that voice she sounds like a damn strong woman, in the true tradition of the great sirens of music history. See, I mean no disrespect to her. Besides, she was great in 'Allo 'Allo. Sorry, sorry, not funny, Just shoot me. OUCH Damnit not literally!  This is not an exit | |
