An Amazing Contribution to French Music, December 26, 2003
This review is from: Humaine (Audio CD)
I just bought this CD in Paris last week and I absolutely love it. It is one of the most beautiful collections of any kind of music I have ever heard. Each song is gorgeous in its own distinctive way. French is such a flowing language anyway, but Helene's voice and the musical rythmns and trills she adds are simply amazing! Her style is best described as French-pop-yoga. It's definitely the best CD I have bought in a while and I definitely give it 5 stars, at least! It's truly amazing!

Simply Beautiful, January 23, 2005
This review is from: Humaine (Audio CD)
I for one only became familiar with Helene Segara through the DVD if "Notre-Dame de Paris", a spectacular musical based off of Victor Hugo 's novel. Helene Segara performed as Esmeralda and she was simply excellent. I received the CD from a friend who has two copies and this was when I got into her music from a more solo-artist stand point.
She has a beautiful, beautiful voice. Regardless of whether you are a French expert or not, you will admit her voice is gorgeous. She can belt it out, sing softly, and has brilliant control. The music is sometimes sad, sometimes happy, but always worth listening to. Not one song on this CD is in poor quality. Personally, my favorite is her duet with Andrea Bocelli called "Vivo Per Lei" performed in Italian. It is simply amazing. Once you listen you will immediatly calm down from whatever is troubling you.
So if you love music, especially French music, and even if you don't I recommend this CD because it is really worth your money. Go for it.

review of Humaine, October 19, 2003

I got the CD when I was in France this May, and it was just so good, even I only speak a little bit French.
I especially like the first track: Humanine. and the last two. She reminds me a bit of Sarah brightman, both of them are trying to explore a so called " cross over" form type of music.
You won't regret it!
