3.0 out of 5 stars manufactured, April 3, 2005

By	vladimir yelbaev (moscow, russia) - See all my reviews

The 13-track debute album from a French TV talent contest winner reveals impeccable arrangements, utter polish of styling, great technical teamwork and virtually top grade new R'n'B. All of which rank medium (not mediocre) for this position withn the hierarchy of pop. All lyrics are in French while tunes persue a typical US-rooted cosmo-flaved urban hip-hop pattern, with exception of closing piano+vocal number attempting a Carole King type of ballad. An admirer of newer Destiny's Child girlie trend will like this one immensely whereas a traditionalist may throw up if long subjected to the sound. Artfully studio-produced and quality recorded by experienced BMG engineers but washed of passion.

5.0 out of 5 stars A joy to listen to!, October 4, 2005

This CD was a delight! Amel's voice is gorgeous and strong, and her styling rings true. I encourage anyone who enjoys R & B, blues, or jazz to check her out. I can't wait for her next effort.

5.0 out of 5 stars Un Jour D'Ete will last a lot longer than one day in the summer., March 20, 2007

I first started searching for French music when I was learning French, when I stumbled upon Amel's hit "Ma Philosophie". After listening to that song about a thousand times, I came to the conclusion to buy the album. Un Jour D'Ete won't lose your attention, and it instantly captivates you with Je Suis. This album is a must have for most people, regardless of your knowledge of the French language.
