Query: Not even fun

At least Norman's last pop excursion, Lucky to be Me, gave us the camp fun of the diva singing "I Love You Just the Way You Are". This disc has no such highlight, and consistently displays some truly hideous singing. Pitches are all over the place; wild skids from vibrato to straight tone sometimes occur on the same note; extremes of loudness and softness bear no discernible relation to the words OR the music. I can't tell what the French songs are about because there are no translations, but English seems just as foreign to Norman here, as she puts lots of interpretive noises in places where they simply don't make any sense. It's too bad--to hear what Norman could have done with this repertoire, go back to her French recital with Dalton Baldwin and those delicious waltzes by Poulenc and Satie; Elly Ameling's Sentimental Me remains my favorite of the diva cocktail-music records.
