Free Music Notes for ReviensFree Music Review: refreshingly different Hit: 5 Stars
'Reviens' is a unique album that instead of following the same pop formula of 'Seul'; Garou, the lyricists, the producers have opted to go in a different direction...by showcasing and extending Garou's vocal style, intensity and range. The songs contained explore refreshingly different and ecclectic styles from the blues of 'Une dernière fois encore' to the old gospel spiritual sound of 'Pendant que mes cheveux poussent' to the guitar heavy rock of the 70s in 'Hemingway' to the classically French 'Les filles'. It's difficult to find an album, where the quality of the production, musicianship, the writing, and the vocals don't follow the standards set by many of today's mainstream cookie cutter "artists". This is an album worth buying, listening to and keeping. Here's to a long lasting and fulfilling career for Garou and Company. Thank you.
Free Music Review: "Old" Blue Eyes Hit: 5 Stars
This is the third album from the French-Canadian singer, Pierre Garand. A.K.A. Garou. This ablum has a wider style of music to it than the last album; From the cute and soft song "Les Filles"( The Girls). And "Le Sucre et le Sel" (Sugar and salt), a sort of soft love song. To a more 70es/80es rock song "Hemingway".
I have really enjoyed every thing sung by this artist, Garou has power and a unqueness to his voice that far surpasses any American Pop singer! I also enjoy his ablity to put so much feeling into singing any given song, even when you don't really understand the words. And you have to enjoy listening to a man who loves people and his "job" so much.
I highly recomend this album, perticularly tracts:1,2,3,5,6,8,11, and 13. Tract 2 was writen for Garou by Gerard De Palmas, also a great French Singer/Song writer! If you are into French rock, or are just looking for "something new" this one is a must!
Free Music Review: What can I say? Just great Hit: 5 Stars
Great album. And the voice this man has!!! It's like several different voices in one. He's being compared to Joe Cocker and other Zuccheros - not unjustly, he's from the same vocal family. But the power, the range od his voice - and his incredible versality make him unique in the world. And this album does him more justice than his debut one. Really good songs, especially Gerald De Palmas' "Et si on dormait", also "Pendant que mes cheveux poussent", "Les filles".
But the best ones, in my view, are three songs closing the album: "Ne me parlez plus d'elle", "Un premer regard" and the beautiful, beautiful blues "Une derniere fois encore". Good job,Garou,now we are waiting for more! I know that he recorded an English-language album too, but for some mysterious reasons Sony Music refuses to release it. Why is that? He's too good for Sony, maybe?

The songs contained explore refreshingly different and ecclectic styles from the blues of 'Une dernière fois encore' to the old gospel spiritual sound of 'Pendant que mes cheveux poussent' to the guitar heavy rock of the 70s in 'Hemingway' to the Cajun sound of 'Les filles'. This is an album worth buying, listening to and keeping, because if the lyrics and the music don't get you, his voice will!! Here's to a long lasting and fulfilling career for Garou and Company.
