  • Comment removed

  • Beautiful version of this classic love song! Sing it Miss Summers!!

  • manuela romeo, did a great version in french,milva's version in italian, is my favorite, but edith piaf's is legendary

  • She's just beautiful.

  • A reasonable update - but Edith Piaf, no. Its impossible to redo this by anybody. But Donna's version is the best of the others.

  • J aime biens cette version disco, je pense que c'est un bel hommage a notre Edith Piaf national .

  • También para mi es una sorpresa descubrir esta rica melodía interpretada por la gran Donna, sin embargo siento que los arreglos no están al nivel de la reina del Disco.

  • That surprised me because I just carry my adolescence I loved from that time no? but the surprise is that SING DONNA LA VIE EN ROSE and cued me your permission to copy my favorites in my channel my name Roberto Marroquin for friends BOB

  • its not the same if its not the french..and i say that as an english speaker

  • ps

    werent there a whole wadge of 'unreleased ' dance mixes of this

    or were Record Collector mag lying lol

  • listen 2 this

    with headphones on

    turned up to 11

    fuuuuuuuuuuux sake thems a 'rare' setta pipes on her!

  • 3 yes's Absolutely brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Kaboom!  My head just exploded.

  • This is really smooth and beautiful as only Donna Summer can do it. Makes you want to get up and dance. Donna's great.

  • Donna Summer is awesome.She has a way of putting a new twist on a song that makes it even more beautiful. I love this rendition so much I listen to it over and over.

  • I love this song is amaizing

  • She's sooooooooo Divine !!!! Singing this Song....my goddnesssssssssssss!!!! Thanks Summer4all  !!! You have the best taste ever :)

  • Great version by DOnna, no doubt, but as an earlier post said, Grace Jones' version is the epitome.

  • seksi o ja, direkt tja.........

  • Donna does a great version of this song but Grace Jones owns it. I remember back in the 70s when I heard Grace's version and I was thinking 'What is this Song and whose singing it?" Well I saw Grace live in 1981 at the Paradise Garage in NY with my cous and her hubby back then and this was her intro. What a show and this lame guy from CT was in awe.

  • very nice, donna!!  i have always loved you!

  • Donna has a new single coming out this August, caled "To Paris With Love". We love you Donna! We can't wait to hear it.

  • Flawless!

  • is this song on any of Donna's albums ?

  • @NadrianATRS this song is only on a tribute album to Edith Piaf. Never included on any Donna's Albuns:-)

  • rocioju

    rado rocio jurado

    rocio jurado

  • Grace Jones does a much, much better job then Donna Summer. And of course no one can touch Edith Piaf's version!!

  • It reminds me of the first time I saw Donna live. What a set of pipes on this lady, no lip syncing here for sure. She sang other style besides dance songs, which were above reproach, I can remember it like it was yesterday......

  • Donna, tienes una voz extrarordinaria y eras muy guapa. Pero esta versión no es buena. Grace es mucho mas fiel a la original y te supera ampliamente.

  • i like better thalia's version of la vie en rose!!!!

  • I like Donna . But I prefer Grace's version.

  • i lkie tha original version....but this Donna Summer version is great......

  • OOh yes thats also well very great singing ,thats fine ,there are different style , and that is good so ,beautifull woman with charme and great voice ,clearly ........., for me thats more woman not to much difficult bi or something ,of course Grace is also good ,but this is real fine WOMAN

  • Her voice is amazing and she sings it better than most. Her producers never provided her with a proper arrangement for the majority of her songs. Even on Don't Cry for me Argentina they didn't think to use a full orchestra with strings.

  • ne comparez pas Donna et Grace chacune a sa facon de chanter!!!!

  • mais ....la Vie en Rose en anglais???

  • Et pourquoi pas!!!!! ???? :-D

  • @EdmundTheMagnificent Even Piaf performed the English translation...though for me Louis Armstrong's English versiosn is actually the most believable

  • Donna such a class act~thanks for the memories!

  • I Love Donna Summer.

  • ecoutez quand elle chante la vie en rose en live a paris c'est un joyeau !!!!je sais de quoi je parle j'y etais...

  • I love Donna Summer so much,but like everyone else I prefer the version with Grace Jones,I love that pic of Donna at this video,LOL!

  • grace jones arrangement was better but donnas voice far outshines jones.

  • uhm not that great at all

  • <3 spicier in french<3

  • WOW! This is a rare treat. Never heard this/ her version. This is obviously a tribute version, created for US MOR radio. While it is not ground-breaking or challenging in any way it still shows Donna's unique and impressive vocals.

    Best version is still the original. 2nd best is Grace Jones.

    But this is a nice enough effort.

    Even Donna's worst songs are miles better than all that RnB Pop crap you have in the charts these days.

  • No...the second best is Dietrich's version. Grace Jones' version was okay.

  • Wow...well...this was just awful.

    I have nothing against Donna Summers herself, nor her voice or her talent. I do agree that she's a tremendous singer, but...I'm rather opposed to the pop corruption of such a beautiful and traditional French song.

    I have no doubt that I'd enjoy this song without the pop drums and the peppy backup singers...but as it is, I honestly can't say I enjoy this.

    Sorry to all who favour this version, but I can't bring myself to promote it. Just awful.

  • I love Donna Summer but this is terrible compared to the Grace Jones version.

  • IT's hard to find, but there is an even faster (dance) version of this by D. Summer

  • Thanks for sharing this pure gem!

  • i try to find this version a long time ago..

    the best version of La vie en Rose ever..

    its actual and conteporany swing and voice.. i like this.. thanks for share this jewel !

  • Thanks for sharing this jewel!

  • i always forget what a tremendous singer she is

    shes much better than Patti Gladys and all them

  • Donna is a diva however...this song just doesnt represent her. I dont mean to be rude however the bpm's are too slow. Edith Piaf rocks my world anytime!

  • It is definitively a different version ... maybe good for dancing even when it seems a christmas song ... maybe because the little bells that ocassionaly sounds ... and yeap ... I prefere Grace Jones version :)

  • Donna's voice is incredible. I'd love to hear her sing modern jazz. As much as she will always be queen to dance music, she's got the voice for everything! I bet she'd sound beautiful in an upbeat jazz CD. But, then again, she's Donna Summer. She's great at anything. What ever happened to "Ordinary Girl?"

  • There is only one DONNA SUMMER!!! Oh my God, she is an incredible entertainer. Her voice outshines any other. Not only is it powerful, it's unique in such a beautiful way.From her old right to her latest "Crayons" cd. We love you Donna!!!!!

  • Thank you for your great comment!!! I love this version and I will Love this Lady until the day I go:-D)))

    She was my first Love in Music and will be my last:-D)))

    Little paulo cristo:-D)))

  • Donna is a great singer but this version is horrible. Much better the original (of course) o the Grace Jones rendition.

  • Yep, Donna is great but the original is much better.

  • There's no one like Donna. Thank-you for posting. She cans sing circles around the abundant mediocrities that pass for singers these days.

  • I believe that you are right!!!:-))) But this is just my HUMBLE Opinion:-)))

  • GERAT!

    The EMPRESS rules.

  • SHE RULES!!!:-))) SHE can sing anything.... She is Perfect!!!this is Just my Humble Opinion.......I adore HER!!!

  • I'd never heard Donna's version before. She sings it with her usual amazing power and grace: this beautiful anthem for love....oooh la la....

  • me too I'm so glad that Donna Did this version of this amazing brilliant song:-)

  • MAGNIFICENT.....

  • Thank you so much. Glad to know that there's more people out there that Appreciate this Great Voice:-)))

  • Thank you for your great comment:-) Yes she can sing anything. Her new album "Crayons" proves that. I adore this Woman her Great Voice and Music:-)))

  • Wonderful interpretation of a classic song. Donna Summer can sing absolutely anything.
