Even though Jazz is not my favorite genre, I really enjoyed my listen, smooth backing tracks and Charlotte is a good singer who interprets your song perfectly.
Well done [Linked Image - Only viewable when logged in]

Personnellement, j'aime beaucoup le style et l'intro. Très Nougaro et une belle voix.
c'est chouette le jazz à Saint germain des prés.

Love the instrumentation and arrangement in this song, also the solos. Charlotte's vocals are definitely superior to SynthV.

Like B.D., jazz is a bit out of my comfort zone, but I always appreciate the artistry despite it not being my cup of tea. This is well produced, crisp and clear in all aspects, topped by a stellar vocal. Really, really well done!! Bravo!

Very enjoyable track! I liked how You doubled the rhythm on the 2nd verse…excellent solo phrasing.I also liked how you “protected” the melody notes by carefully choosing your lyric. I was a little disappointed in the ending—I would have let it fade out with some more piano doodling. But thoroughly enjoy your work!

Nice clean piece. The voice is what I refer to as a Disney heroine voice...crystaline.

Very cool swingin' tune. Tight band. Interesting and very relaxed sounding solos throughout. Those vocals melt me though. Don't understand a syllable, but don't have to. I know what I like. smile

Chris,

This is a wonderful jazz chanson.
The vocalist, Charlotte is amazing.
I really like her singing style.
The song sounds as if it was written by Claude Nugaro and Michel Legrand.
It's Saint-Germain-des-Prées style jazz.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Shigeki Adachi
