French jazz/pop. The voice is breathy and thin, but there’s a cool band and overall it works (in small doses). It’s got a decidedly 50’s/60’s kind of retro thing with a Bardot meets Hefner kind of feel. By track 8 I did want to slap her, though. But that’s just me.

*1. Soft, waif-whisper with a quiet, retro-jazz feel.
*2. Mid-tempo jazz swing w/sex-kitten vocals.
3. Fast vocals, slow bass/guitar. Odd.
*4. Like track #2, this time with a swinging sax.
5. Sea sounds, lazy vocals.
6. Lightly bouncy w/vox/guitar/piano/etc.
7. Playfully sexy samba.
8. Relaxed little late-night purr.
*9. Sexy vocal duet.
10. Simple melody, rather too sweet.
11. Mid-tempo romp for the easily pleased.
12. Bouncy guitar/soft vocals, a bit faster.
13. A strange, slow song…like her date dumped her at the circus.
