  • not crazy about her interpretation of the text, and she breathes in awkward places. besides that, i love this song even more than apres un reve.

  • I don't know if you are french, but to french ears it sounds very poetic, deep, feminine, gracious and natural, even though her manner is more of the 80's than from nowadays rules of interpretation, because it is the contrary of sophistication.

  • Can tell me from which CD recording you got this? I would love to purchase it!

  • A private cd, nowhere to buy that alas.

  • This is beautiful. The places she breathes are just fine, in my opinion. Lovely!!

  • thanks for sharing, i really enjoyed listening to it. well sung, obviously!

  • omg loooove it

  • I sang this in my senior year of high school. It's a tough song, but when executed properly, it is very powerful.

  • Love this song.

  • What a powerful piece of music.

  • Oui, je suis d'accord avec vous, il y a aussi beaucoup de choses très positives chez ce chanteur !

    Et... non, désolé, rien de moi sur YouTube !

  • Je ne suis pas Hervé David ni spécialiste du chant comme vous. Mais j'aime bien ce qu'il fait car on comprend tout ce qu'il dit, ce qui n'est pas le cas de certains professionnels. Avez-vous un enregistrement de vous disponible sur Youtube?

  • Il y a aussi une sorte d'apathie dans l'interprétation, l'émotion ne passe jamais par la voix, les couleurs, on reste au niveau du texte, et, même pour Fauré, ce n'est pas suffisant.

    Désolé (surtout si vous êtes Hervé David) si ce commentaire paraît sévère.

    Je conseillerais à ce chanteur de travailler l'interprétation avec un chanteur spécialiste de la mélodie, et je lui souhaite beaucoup de succès dans l'avenir !
