In fact, the current French songs are also very good, but I always feel that they have lost the charm of the word "chanson" due to the influence of the whole European and American pop music. Although the Hollande government explicitly requires that French songs should account for 50% of the songs played on the French radio website, it does not prevent American electronic music and hip-hop from occupying France, which makes French songs also feature.
So I still like to listen to the French songs of the last century or even the last century, such as Piaf and Mathieu of the last century. In the last century, La Marseillaise is the best chanson.
The first time I listened to Miss Piaf, La Mome's song was in "Inception", the song "Non, Je ne regrette rien" is so suitable for the film. Piaf's thick and gentle voice echoes throughout the world, making people feel like they're really in a dream. In fact, Miss Mathieu also sang this song later, but it still doesn't seem as good as Piaf sings.
Speaking of this film, as a biographical film, the director will always use various flashbacks, interludes, inversions, and even montages to describe a person's legendary life. This film is no exception, and even more so, it makes people feel dazzled and unconscious. Qing, I don't even know where is where, what part of Piaf's life is trying to describe. Even so, I still admire Cotillard's acting skills. I didn't expect her to look (or put on makeup) so much like Piaf, especially the long scene where Piaf learned that his lover was killed in an air crash.
In the film, the young Piaf sings his first French chanson, La Marseillaise. That. In fact, this is not the first time I listened to Marseillaise. When I watched Casa Blanca when I was a child, there was a scene where people sang Marseillaise. At that time, I didn't understand why French people were so excited about this song. When I grew up, I understood: you The family was occupied, so when the national anthem was sung, there should be a lot of indignation. But the Marseillaise is really good, not only the lyrics are good, but also the music is smooth and beautiful. You watch every time the French football team sings the national anthem, the last section, Aux armes citoyens! Formez vos bataillons! Marchons, marchons! Qu`un sang impur abreuve nos sillons! are all chorus, quite shocking.
I searched a lot of Marseillaise versions on the Internet. Generally speaking, the French government's vision is still good. Mathieu's version is really good. This French diva can always sing the taste of chanson in French. And she sang a lot of Miss Piaf's songs, as I said before, Non, Je ne regrette rien.
In fact, Piaf can play this song to the fullest, because this song is her own, although life is very tragic, many times She suffered a blow and ruined her body because of the use of drugs, but she has been working hard to sing, as she said in the interview: to love! So she has no regrets.
The chansons in the whole film, La Marseillaise, La vie en rose, L`Hymne al`amour and Non, Je ne regrette rien are all classics in the chansons. Anyway, I watched this film just to listen to her songs, because the director The level of editing is too low.
