I know comparissons can take away from the individual nature of music, but for anyone who hasn't heard Zazie, I would say she is like a French Ani Difranco/Tori Amos hybrid. Like Ani, she has very clever, powerful lyrics, with plenty of double entres and "jeux de mots." Her next album, "Made in Love" is more political, but "Zen" still has awesome lyrics, alternating between sweet, ironic, and biting. You'll probably enjoy this album most if you speak French, since the lyrics are so important. Her actual musical and vocal qualities are more like Tori, but again this is just to give you an idea is you have never had the pleasure of listening to her. A great album!
