Edith Piaf's life was a passionate mixture of love, tragedy, mysticism, and art; her soaring voice often masked the pain caused by those who would take advantage of her. On this unusual collection we hear many of her greatest songs from 1950-1962 -- including La Vie en Rose and No Regrets -- all performed in English, allowing the English-speaking listener to be drawn into a deeper level of the artist's work. It also includes two previously-unreleased out takes in French that were found by chance in a Paris flea market. A great introduction to her work for new fans, and a must for collectors.
