Here are the things I know about Coeur de Pirate: Beatrice Martin is the heart and voice of Coeur de Pirate, she crafts gorgeously lush piano numbers and is undeniably sexy in the way that only blonde, Bardot looking girls singing solely in French can be.  Here is what I don't know about Coeur de Pirate: despite 6 years of high school French, I'm unable to fully grasp what is being sung.  But in the same way I never stressed about reading the words projected at the Met during an Italian opera, I don't give much mind to the fact I don't understand all the words Coeur de Pirate sings.  It's not so much the words that move and entrance with these songs, but the grandeur, the simplicity, the feeling and the heart behind the 12 tunes on this self-titled debut.  And did I mention that knowing these songs come out of the pout of Beatrice Martin doesn't hurt?  Check out the video for "Comme des Enfants," and try not to fall in love with Coeur de Pirate.
