My parents had records of all her songs. Then I read a biography of Piaf, it was fascinating. One of the things I remember from it was that she never washed her underwear, she just wore it until she felt it was dirty/smelly and then chucked it out and wore new items! A woman much damaged by her childhood, she really suited her nickname The Little Sparrow.herschelianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17414522582684680371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6604938.post-38928787270743793242008-08-14T01:13:00.000-07:002008-08-14T01:13:00.000-07:00I do sorta want to see this movie, but it somehow ...I do sorta want to see this movie, but it somehow seems like it might be too heavy.Lenore Appelhanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16664671644163369772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6604938.post-72084262868326666212008-08-13T19:47:00.000-07:002008-08-13T19:47:00.000-07:00Je Ne Regrette Rien is one of my favorite songs in...Je Ne Regrette Rien is one of my favorite songs in the world.<BR/><BR/>I've been known to drive my wife into a murderous frenzy by playing it a dozen times in a row. :-)Sam https://www.blogger.com/profile/17448913705757509608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6604938.post-4857411055858502882008-08-13T18:07:00.000-07:002008-08-13T18:07:00.000-07:00I don't know how it happened, but it's a pretty go...I don't know how it happened, but it's a pretty good obsession if you ask me.

But then all my CDs were stolen. :( And for some reason, almost three years later, I still can't quite bring myself to buy CDs I used to own, so I don't have Edith anymore. But this post makes me want to go buy one of her CDs Right Now!!Evahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06703372903532502944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6604938.post-3056319784016562132008-08-13T08:04:00.000-07:002008-08-13T08:04:00.000-07:00You've got me hooked!
