Thanks God there's nobody in this thread claiming that Edit Piaf is nothing but a whore, who became a successful singer by lucky chance ))))

Well, given her unfortunate background (she came from a very poor family if she ever had any), you never can tell.

Вопрос на засыпку, например Земфира, Кипелов, Дио - это исполнители или группы? Вот такая вот, приблизительно, петрушка и со Спрингстиным. Хотя не оправдывает описанных тобою товарищей.

Not because of that at all. Just because if I we had to save 5 musical masterpieces(say there is a comet coming to Earth), you would surely take something from Mozart. If you had to take 100, 1000 or even 10000 pieces, Piaf might not be in the list.

She IS a top singer. Just like Hans Christian Andersen is a top fairy tale writer. These are top names - for each one in his/her own sphere.
Well writers and performers are somehow different categories, dont you find? I mean a person who doesn't like chanson or music like that could never been heard of Piaf. That has nothing to do with inteligency.
P.S. And yes, Callas is super
