Grace Jones - La vie en rose

Grace Jones (born 19 May 1948) is a Jamaican-American singer, model and actress..
"La Vie en rose" ( Life in Rosy Hues, literally Life in pink) was the signature song of French singer Édith Piaf


   La vie en rose
    


Des yeux qui font baisser les miens
Un rire qui se perd sur sa bouche
Voilà le portrait sans retouche
De l'homme auquel j'appartiens


Quand il me prend dans ses bras
Il me parle tout bas
je vois la vie en rose


Il me dit des mots d'amour
des mots de tous le jours
Et ça me fait quelque chose
Il est entré dans mon coeur
Une part de bonheur
Dont je connais la cause
C'est lui pour moi
Moi pour lui
dans la vie


Il me l'a dit, l'a juré pour la vie
Et dès que je l'aperçois
Alors je sens en moi, mon coeur qui bat...


When he takes me in his arms
and whispers love to me
everything's lovely
It's him for me and me for him
all our lives
and it's so real what I feel
this is why


Et dès que je l'aperçois
Alors je sens en moi,mon coeur qui bat...
la vie .........
La vie en rose,la vie en rose
ohhhhhhhh.....la vie
La vie en rose,
La vie en rose,la vie en rose
la vie en rose ,la vie en rose
la vie en rose , la vie en rose
la vie en rose, la vie en rose

Grace Jones - Nipple to the bottle

Grace Jones (born 19 May 1948 as Grace Mendoza) is a Jamaican-American singer, model and actress.

Jones secured a record deal with Island Records in 1977, which resulted in a string of dance-club hits. In the late 1970s, she adapted the emerging electronic music style and adopted a severe, androgynous look with square-cut hair and angular, padded clothes. In 1981, her "Pull Up to the Bumper" spent seven weeks at #2 on the U.S. Hot Dance Club Play chart, and became a Top 5 single on the U.S. R&B chart.

Although she has yet to become a truly mainstream recording artist in the United States, much of Jones's musical output is very popular in American clubs as many of the singles were hits on Billboard's Hot Dance Club Play and Hot Dance Airplay charts. Jones was able to find mainstream success in Europe, particularly the United Kingdom, scoring a number of Top 40 entries on the UK Singles Chart. Jones's most notable albums are Warm Leatherette, Nightclubbing and Slave to the Rhythm, while her biggest hits (other than "Pull Up to the Bumper") are "I've Seen That Face Before (Libertango)", "Private Life", "Slave to the Rhythm" and "I'm Not Perfect (But I'm Perfect for You)". During the 1970s, she also became a muse to Andy Warhol, who photographed her extensively.

During this era she regularly went to the New York City nightclub Studio 54.

Grace Jones  is a Jamaican-American singer, model and actress.

The contralto singer has the range to move into an almost-soprano mode in some songs.

Jones secured a record deal with Island Records in 1977, which resulted in a string of

dance-club hits and a large gay following. In the late 1970s, Jones adapted the emerging

New Wave music style and adopted a severe, androgynous look with square-cut hair and

angular, padded clothes. In 1981, her "Pull Up to the Bumper" spent seven weeks at #2 on

the U.S. Hot Dance Club Play chart, and became a Top 5 single on the U.S. R&B chart

.

Although she has yet to become a truly mainstream recording artist in the United States,

much of Jones's musical output is very popular in American clubs as many of the singles

were hits on Billboard's Hot Dance Club Play and Hot Dance Airplay charts. Jones was able

to find mainstream success in Europe, particularly the United Kingdom, scoring a number

of Top 40 entries on the UK Singles chart . Jones's most notable albums are Warm

Leatherette, Nightclubbing and Slave to the Rhythm, while her biggest hits (other than

"Pull Up to the Bumper") are "I've Seen That Face Before (Libertango)", "Private Life",

Jones' acting occasionally overshadowed her musical output except in Europe where her

profile as a recording artist was much higher. Her work as an actress in mainstream film

began in the 1984 fantasy-action film Conan the Destroyer alongside Arnold Schwarzenegger

and the 1985 James Bond movie A View to a Kill. In 1986 she played a vampire in Vamp and

both acted in and sang a song in the 1992 Eddie Murphy film Boomerang. In 2001, she

appeared alongside Tim Curry in Wolf Girl.
