Sad history life but a spectacular singer, my favorite french singer all time.

[@zzzdi5770]

The rolled "r" is typical of the old parisian accent (maybe until the 1970's), just to clarify. Love your videos, you're amazing !

[@Lyosha9869]

Not really lol

[@zzzdi5770]

@@Lyosha9869 Good to know I guess. Thanks for the insight.

[@jpc7118]

In fact, the rolled "r" was oftener seen in french countryside... my grand-parents and many other old people in Corrèze were rolling their r that way, it was in the 70's to the 90's... And in Limousin, when I speak with 80+ y.o people, most of them roll their r... It's absolutely not a parisian... the "titi parisien" the most representative of Parisian style had in horror the rolled r that was making "paysan", plouc, (peasant)...

No other singer is synonymous with France like hearing Edith Piaf! What a legend! Thank you so much for reacting to her!

[@peterquinn8419]

My Mothers family are French so whenever I heard Edith playing at home I could be assured my Mother would be sitting there thinking of her own Mother, her loss of her and she would be crying. My Mother had a very tragic history with her Mother and I think she related to the tragic life of Edith yet found comfort in her voice. Im an old man now and went through my own tragedies with my Mother and her suicide at a young age and whenever I want to think back and remember her I only have to put Edith on and it all comes flooding back to me. Sometimes I still have a tear in my eye while listening but mostly I try to find the happier times and find comfort in Ediths warm voice and try so hard to have "No Regrets". We ALL have a story to tell;.

Piaf is extraordinary. The 'vibrato' that Beth speaks of is not comparable with consciously produced violin vibrato. It is the vibration of life itself. All the great voices have it - on the popular side, John Denver, Judith Durham et al - and that is why they touch us so deeply . . .

Huge fan “la môme piaf,” I study so many artists n their life story. Her story is fascinating, sad yet moments of splendor during the worst time of war, which I study. Her beauty was breathtaking and as she aged, her smile still lighted a room like a midnight sky of sparkling stars ✨

Every react video you do is so informative and your breaking down of mouth shape and tongue position is fantastic. I would love to see/hear you react to the Everly Brothers, "Unchained Melody".

[@isabellecleach]

The rolling R is not that frequent nowadays... our grandparents were using it more than us (French)... also there are mainly 2 different R in France, because there are 2 languages (Occitan from the south, langue d'Oïl from the North) in one (french)... French is a very mixed language and very evolutive. For example Quebecers speak a very old french version (they were obliged to resist the "anglo-speakers'oppression", the reflexe was to defend the french language and then they tried to not move it too much compared to the metropolitan french). french has a latin base but it's a mix with some celtic, lots of Frank, a great part of occitan, an even greater part of Oïl language etc...

[@theripper1312]

Only a French can truly analyze his voice in concrete terms (although I don't question your discernment) Edith has a slight Parisian accent when she speaks, but when she sings, her voice is a vocal instrument in its own right which she knows how to take advantage of wonderfully by modulating it. She rolls the "R's" and so it's her personal gimmick. It should be noted that when she began on stage in cabarets, she often sang without a microphone, which could explain the fact of accentuating the syllables at the end of her sentences to always be in the rhythm of the music. Whether you are from the north (Picard), the east (Alsace), the south (Provence) or from the west (Brittany), in France we recognize the location of people by their accents when they speak but not when they sing. They are equal at this level of interpretation, even in Paris ... A typical example? Her worthy successor is Mireille Mathieu and yet she is from the city of Avignon (speaking with a strong southern accent) and a way of singing very characteristic of what Piaf was doing. Another icon from the olden days, which was very popular but in a different style was Dalida (Iolanda Gigliotti 1933-1987) with Egyptian and Italian origins; had in addition a spectacle worthy of American musical choreographies. PS: When in Spain, no relation with the French language, in their country the "J" is pronounced "R" (are). Spanish has more similarity with the Italian language.

[@Angelicwings1]

The was a cool movie called La vie en Rose that did a decent job depicting her life. I mean, of course, it wasn’t perfect but I highly recommend it. I love Edith so much. She is incredible. I love it when a singer can truly bring the talent and emotion to a song. Her crazy life made her one of the best singers of all time.
