I believe the answer is:

piaf

(Other definitions for piaf that I've seen before include "Edith -, Fr. cabaret singer (Non, je ne regrette rien)" , "French singer who regretted nothing" , "Edith -, twentieth century French cabaret singer" , "See 6 Down" , "Edith, the "Little Sparrow"" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
