03年首砖《Quelqu' a M' to Dit》以200万销量、获法国最权威音乐大奖"Les Victoires De La Musique"的最佳女歌手奖及最佳新发现大碟奖提名的骄人成绩,肯定了这位名模天分的另一面,也使人对她的下一张专辑充满期待。因此,4年后的第2张专辑《Not Promises》成为07年初最为热门的专辑之一,乃意料之中。与首砖不同,新砖全部用英语演唱。
新专辑11首歌曲根据William Butler Yeats, Wystan Hugh Auden, Emily Dickinson, Christina Rossetti, Walter De the Sea, and Dorothy Parker等盎格鲁撒克逊诗人的诗篇创作而成,融合Folk, Blues and Rock'n'roll多种曲风。优美的旋律配以Carla Bruni典雅而感性的歌声,营造出一种忧郁、孤独而浪漫的气氛。

Come, let me sing into your ear; Those dancing days are gone, All that silk and satin gear; Crouch upon a stone, Wrapping that foul body up In as foul a rag: I carry the sun in a golden cup. The moon in a silver bag.
Curse as you may I sing it through; What matter if the knave That the most could pleasure you, The children that he gave, Are somewhere sleeping like a top Under a marble flag? I carry the sun in a golden cup. The moon in a silver bag.
