Each tune's elaborated? It's Piaf, perhaps (9)
I believe the answer is:
chanteuse
'piaf perhaps' is the definition.
(Edith Piaf is an example)
'each tune's elaborated?' is the wordplay.
'elaborated?' is an anagram indicator.
'each'+'tunes'='eachtunes'
'eachtunes' with letters rearranged gives 'CHANTEUSE'.
'it's' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for chanteuse that I've seen before include "Tunes ache for this French woman singer" , "A French woman singer of popular ballads" , "Female singer, in a nightclub perhaps" , "Female popular singer" , "Female cabaret singer" .)
