COMPASSION

Affirmation of life is the spiritual act by which man ceases to live thoughtlessly and begins to devote himself to his life
with reverence in order to give it true value.

YouTube - Edith PIAF: 'L'Etranger'

oaded by on Aug 14, 2007

Both Damia and Piaf recorded "L'Etranger" in 1936. There was not only difference in age between these two artists, there was difference in experience; Damia had been singing for more than twenty years then, whereas Piaf was making her first steps in the "industry". Damia seems to have gained a distance in her renditions, still dramatic; Edith's experience was troubled youth which enhanced imagination as it often happens with most of great artists at the beginning of their path.
