欧亚同一个性歌后首次合作卡拉布鲁尼首次亮相中文
蔡健雅亲力亲为教唱并任单曲制作细尝法式点睛之作
『照片』的合作起因相当巧合，Carla Bruni 正在寻找与华人歌手的机会，她的团队查询各电话与版权公司不约而同推荐蔡健雅作为合作对象，Carla Bruni 这非常神奇，同时蔡健雅正在筹备新专辑，因为她接到合作的邀请愿洽询，便卡拉联络并听演示，想不到见面一见如故，再加上蔡健雅雅造访巴黎，就让他们各自为合唱相当乐见其成。相隔欧亚两洲，Carla不会中文且又是首次演唱中文歌词，蔡健雅自己可以录音了中文让Carla学习，歌曲录音时蔡健雅贯穿视讯软体跨海连线制作，不因彼此相隔的距离而阻绝了我至臻完美的合作。

Carla Bruni - "Carla Bruni" - This eponymous album is the reflection of Carla Bruni herself, a wholehearted embracing of her true self. Always sensitive, with emotions on the surface at times, the music of the album bears witness to a unique temperament and avoids ostentation. Through it we can sense a desire for a calm simplicity, free from glitter and arrogance. That's probably because the production of these songs was planned well before anyone set foot in the recording studio. Guitar, piano, a bit of foot-tapping and fragments of melody are the foundation of all the tracks, recorded behind closed doors with Albin de la Simone, who produced the entire album. For his first collaboration with Carla Bruni, the multi-instrumentalist - one of the very best on the French scene in the past 20 years - was determined to give her new songs the most delicate treatment. Listening to the new manifesto, "Carpe Diem", you can't help but regain a strong sense of the present moment. And this is what's so disarming about Bruni's songs: the intimacy, the simplicity, in a spirit of freedom, friendship and love. Compact Disc

2008 Deluxe Edition of the French Pop star's debut album includes a bonus DVD containing live video clips from Live au Trianon plus a 16ÿpageÿoriginal booklet withÿCarla's personal notebook. Rarely does an album come along that touches everyone who listens to it, even those that do not speak the language in which it was recorded. Quelqu'un M'a Dit, the 2003 album from the acclaimed French singer-songwriter, Carla Bruni, captures you with the first note and leaves you humming the last. With a band led by ex-Telephone guitarist Louis Bertignac, the Franco-Italian beauty sings of love and loves lost with the ability to evoke powerful images across any language barrier. Naive. 2008.

Carla Bruni
从模特到音乐人
Carla Bruni 于1968年出生在意大利的都灵市。七岁那年，Carla随父母移居至巴黎。Carla的父亲是古典音乐的作曲人，母亲则是现场演出伴奏的职业钢琴师。受父母的熏陶，Carla九岁的时候就开始学弹吉他， 父母原想要她学弹钢琴，但她总是不成器。Carla是在萧邦， 舒伯特和马勒的音乐声中长大的，后来又爱上了法国香颂大师Serge Gainsbourg， Léo Ferré和Barbara的音乐， 还有英国摇滚乐队Beatles， the Rolling Stones， the Clash和the Velvet Underground， 美国的爵士乐如Muddy Waters 和Ella Fitzgerald等。
1986年， Carla开始了她的模特生涯。 同年，她被选为GUESS品牌的一名代言模特， 之后，Carla开始频繁出现在时装杂志的封面上，并为Christian Dior，Chanel, Givenchy, Yves Saint Laurent等多个名牌拍过广告和行过时装秀。 1988年，Carla已经年收入750万，成为世界上年收入最高的20名模特之一。
音乐是Carla一生的梦想， 故在演出之余， 她常在酒店房间或后台自弹自唱。 1998年起，Carla淡出T型台。 2000年，著名歌星Julien Clerc邀请Carla为他的新专集《Si j'étais elle》写歌，Carla为专集里的六首歌填了词， 其中，主打歌曲《Si j'étais elle》成为流行榜上的热门作品。这成为Carla进军歌坛的一个成功的开端，藉着这张专集的成功，Carla得以有机会与Lynda Lemay，Bénabar， Vincent Delerm， Benjamin Biolay 和Keren Ann 等优秀的词作者交流。 到这时， 出个人专集对Carla而言，只不过是水到渠成的事情了。
“厨房制作”
专集《Quelqu'un m'a dit》的词曲创作和音乐编排主要是由Carla与相识了20年的好友，前Téléphone乐队的吉它手Louis Bertignac两个人共同完成的。 Carla 先把一些录好的歌曲样板寄给Louis Bertignac征求意见， Louis Bertignac二话不说就跑来找Carla， 一边把改编过的音乐编排写下来，一边拿过Carla的吉它， 开始自弹自唱作演示，而Carla也发现， 这正是她要寻找的效果并邀请Louis任其唱片的制作人。 于是，两人就在Carla的家里琢磨歌词和乐曲，Carla 作曲填词， Louis则主要为歌曲作编排和演示，整张专集的词曲和音乐编排在一个半月之内完成， 故Carla戏称该专集为“厨房制作”。
这张专集的音乐介于Jeanne Moreau， Serge Gainsbourg（传统的法国香颂）与Joni Mitchell， Emmylou Harris（美国民摇）之间。 而歌词方面， 则尽显左岸时代的chanson à texte风格。一般歌词与诗歌的区别主要在于韵律格式与副歌的区别， 一般歌词多不遵循传统诗歌的韵律格式写的， Carla的歌词则是尽量遵循传统的风格去写。
Carla Bruni 《Quelqu'un m'a dit》
这张专集12首歌里面的10首曲和词由Carla独自或参与创作， 一首《La noyée》是翻唱Serge Gainsbourg 未正式出版的作品， 另一首翻唱作品为意大利传奇歌手Gino Paoli于1960年首唱的成名作品《Il cielo in una stanza》， 该曲经许多歌手翻唱而成为意大利的不朽名曲， 在这张专集里， Carla用法语和意大利语演唱该曲。 Carla 解释这张专集的歌词主要是写自己的， 她习惯把平常一些突如其来的想法用简短而精炼的句子写下来，然后把它雕琢成近似诗歌的一种歌词风格。但Carla 却不希望把歌词写得深奥难懂， 她希望带给人一种简单真诚， 如清晨里从睡梦醒过来的女子，睡眼朦胧， 肌肤敞露的感觉。
Carla的歌曲唱的是人生， 爱和欲， 歌词既性感， 亦感性， 朦胧之中又那么细腻，坦诚当中不带一点假装，乐曲和Carla的声音与歌词那么合衬， 融为一体。 歌词多讲述女性感情的脆弱， 爱的亲密，由Carla用半吟半唱的方式唱出，正如轻声细语的讲述一个个故事。 对这张专集， 连向来挑剔的乐评都一边倒的给予好评，惊呼已经久违的法国香颂重现。
