needing a little more [Posted on 2008-06-03]
While I agree with the rest of the reviewers that this artist has a gifted singing voice, the lyrics of her song leaves much to be desired. Her articulations are not very clear or convincing, especially in the French songs. All these said, if you are looking for something truly satisfying, opt for an orginal Holiday instead of this imitation.

This is heaven to me... [Posted on 2008-06-26]
Contemplative, moody, pensive, deep - Madeleine Peyroux! Range, timbre, in love with love, earthy - Plugged into something greater than herself. This album sends me! The vocals, the musicianship, the sound craft and engineering: "Careless Love" is a must have for anyone who appreciates music. Every cut is a well-crafted gem, the best forty-minutes you'll ever spend on a lazy summer (or rainy) day. "Dance me"..., "You're gonna make me lonesome when you go", "J'a deux amours", "Weary Blues", "This is heaven to me", absolute gems! Madeleine Peyroux is a national treasure. Reminiscent of Billie Holiday upon first impression, her vocal styling really is unique and speaks to her no doubt many influences and experiences in their own right. Can't wait to pick up the rest of her songbook. Recommend it, I would!!!

A Superb Singer on her Best CD [Posted on 2008-09-15]
I first heard Peyroux' "Don't Wait Too Long" on NPR and immediately bought the Careless Love CD. What a treasure! At first she did remind me of Holiday, but the more I listened, the more I heard her own sound and style. This is one I can play over and over and never tire of (especially Between the Bars - incredible!). I have probably given this CD to a dozen friends, who in turn have become big fans. While I have also enjoyed her other CDs, this one remains my favorite and, I think, her best.

Serendipitous find! [Posted on 2008-10-15]
I first heard Madeleine Peyroux's seductive, swingy voice in a grocery store of all places, singing Leonard Cohen's "Dance Me to the End of Love." I ran to the computer as soon as I got home to find out who would have the great good taste and chops to perform that song without making me long for the original. Great voice, fine album, wonderful selection of songs.

Incredible! A little Billie Holiday, a bit of Edith Piaf, and a whole lot of enjoyment. A pleasure to listen to.
