''Half the Perfect World'' is the fourth studio album by American jazz singer Madeleine Peyroux. It was released on September 12, 2006. It peaked at No. 33 on the Billboard 200 albums chart and had sold 218,000 copies in the United States by December 2008. The album featured four original songs, all of them co-written by Peyroux: "I'm All Right," "A Little Bit," "Once in a While" and "California Rain." This marked a change in Peyroux's style, who would, in March 2009, release her first album without any covers. Peyroux did a cover of "Summer Wind," a song by Johnny Mercer, whom she always credits as a major influence on her music. She also recorded three covers (two were issued on the standard edition; the bonus track "Crazy to Love You" was added to the Japanese one) from Leonard Cohen and Anjani Thomas' album ''Blue Alert''. ==Track listing== # "I'm All Right" (Walter Becker, Madeleine Peyroux, Larry Klein) – 3:27 # "The Summer Wind" (Hans Bradtke, Henry Mayer, Johnny Mercer) – 3:55 # "Blue Alert" (Leonard Cohen, Anjani Thomas) – 4:10 # "Everybody's Talkin'" (Fred Neil) – 5:10 # "River" featuring k.d. lang (Joni Mitchell) – 5:19 # "A Little Bit" (Jesse Harris, Larry Klein, Madeleine Peyroux) – 4:02 # "Once in a While" (Jesse Harris, Larry Klein, Madeleine Peyroux) – 4:00 # "(Looking for) The Heart of Saturday Night" (Tom Waits) – 3:27 # "Half the Perfect World" (Leonard Cohen, Anjani Thomas) – 4:21 # "La Javanaise" (Serge Gainsbourg) – 4:11 # "California Rain" (Jesse Harris, Larry Klein, Madeleine Peyroux) – 2:57 # "Smile" (Charlie Chaplin, Geoffrey Parsons, John Turner) – 3:57 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Half the Perfect World」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
