Considering that Carla Bruni is an Italian tire-manufacturing heiress, a former Paris supermodel, and France's President Nicolas Sarcozy's wife, it's a safe bet that she didn't cut this fine debut album for the money. The feeling of her having nothing to prove imbues these songs with a catlike comfort that goes right from the ears into one's aching muscles and joints, past any language barrier (all the songs are in French) or prejudice against supermodel musical talent. Bruni's singing voice is warm, sultry, and languid with just a touch of a rasp, as if she's just woken from a wonderful nap, and rumor has it she wrote, sang, and played acoustic guitar for all the tracks while barefoot. Louis Bertignac (Telephone) produced this album and plays electric lead guitar, both evoking mellow '70s Eric Clapton (a former lover of Bruni's) and that era's folk-rock, particularly on "Tout le Monde" and the liltingly sweet "La Ciel Dans Une Chambre." Other songs, such as the title track, bounce along with a more traditional cafe oomph, but not enough to disturb the pervading air of delicious jet set languor, which comes refreshingly sans ennui or extraneous production gloss.
