Arr..

What exactly does a pirate's heart sound like? If Québécois up-and-comer Coeur de Pirate is any indication, warm summer days and an endless sunrise. Though she sings in french, no prior knowledge of the language is required to connect with her bubbly pop that sounds a bit like if you took Lily Allen, put her together with Feist, then fast-forwarded to give them a fun chipmunk voice. And I mean that in the best way. "Comme Des Enfants" recalls Edith Piaf with its stripped-down arrangement and beautiful melody. "Ensemble" is a bouncy single that makes you want to spend the afternoon skipping. In short, Coeur de Pirate is worth a listen...and then a hundred more .
