Edith Piaf

Photo from wikipedia

On this date in 1963, the world lost one of the most beautiful voices ever; Edith Piaf, the little sparrow, died at only 47 years of age. One of her most famous songs is also one of my favorites. I could listen to this over and over. If you didn't see the movie, La Vie en Rose, I would highly recommend it. I thought it was superbly done.

  1. I really like the song La Vie en Rose but haven't seen the film. I remember when it was up for several awards. I'll have hubby add it to the Netflix queue.

  4. I watched this movie for the first time two summers ago and I was enthralled. Yes, I too could listen to this song over and over again.
