This particular album was just released in France. I have the CD and was given to me by a friend since I am an Arena collector. What can I say? PERFECT. This is a record without any digital enhancements... Pure vocals and a fantastic live band!!! This was taken at her L'Olympia concert and listening to the CD will create a feeling that you are really in the concert. Arena mellowed down some arrangements and gave higher notes to "Chains", "Woman", and "Symphonie de lame". Unbelievable. Includes the high noted "Je Te Retrouve Un Peu" with french singer Jay. "Burn", "Tu Es Toujours La", to name a few are the stand-outs! Eitherway all the songs are done live and it was all magical and never lost it's quality. Pristine vocals and fantastic arrangements from track 1 to the end. Rare release from an artiste who releases album every four years should be bought instantly. A feel good album that is worth every penny!!!! Make sure to have this album in your collection!!!! The good thing about the album is you'll hear the screaming fans... yelling Tina!!!! Tina!!!! Tina!!!!

This collection of French and English songs is from a riveting concert in Paris. The sound has been mixed and edited exceptionally well. Tina Arena demonstrates that she is just as brilliant live in concert as she is in the studio.

Some of the passionate highlights are "Aller Plus Haut" which Tina sings like an anthem, her vocal is very soulful on "Tu Es Toujours La'", "Symphonie De L'Ame" (Symphony of Life) is charged with dynamic energy, Tina brings life experience and pathos to "I Want To Know What Love Is", her searing vocal in "Chains" is sultry and hot, and "Woman" is raw, yet deep. Let's not leave out the musicians and the back-up singers. They add dimension and color to this concert.

Tina Arena continues to grow and expand her talents in both her vocals and her song-writing. The lyrics in "You Make Me Find Myself" are deeply moving. What a shame that a dvd of this concert wasn't made. From the photographs in the liner notes, it looks like it was quite a night to remember! Be certain not to miss out on this cd.
