Do you know the song "Quelqu'un m'a dit" by Carla Bruni? Apparently it's on the soundtrack to 500 Days of Summer, but I just came across for the first time and I love this little romantic ditty. I've been practicing it on the guitar myself for the last two days, but there's no way I can match Bruni's deep, rich, raspy tone, which I think makes her version so magical.
I actually didn't know Carla Bruni was a singer. I've only known her as the well-dressed, former-model wife of Nicolas Sarkozy. But this performance makes me respect her so much more as an artist! (Although...doesn't she look breathtakingly beautiful in this video?)
