It looked like a sure shot, this album. For a good cause, with Canadian artists either doing their own songs or covers. Like Jef by Brel, of Je Bois by Boris Vian. And, the ultimate reason for buying it: Ariane Moffatt doing a Serge Gainsbourg-cover. Honestly, the album's not as good as I hoped it would be, most songs are bland, most covers are bad. But boy, Ariane does deliver. Fuir le bonheur de peur qu'il ne sauve is one of the most beautiful songs Serge ever wrote. I already posted the original version by Jane Birkin a few months back, but to compare the two, here it is again. Ariane Moffatt - Fuir le bonheur
Jane Birkin - Fuir le bonheur
