"Requiem pour un fou " with Lara Fabian and Johnny Hallyday is the best duet of the Galaxy.
Ok I will try to give the full context:
• Johnny :
The most admired singer in France from early 60s to 2017 when he died.
He is the Elvis of France, sold more than 110M records WW. His concerts were huge!
To give you an idea on how big he was in the french music history, just 3 anecdotes:
1/ as a teenager, he was mentored by Edith Piaf herself !
2/ He was the first one who gave his chance to a young guitarist and his band, as a supporting act to his concerts during his 1966 tour. Name of the band: the Jimi Hendrix Experience!
3/ When he died in 2017, there were national funerals, with hundred of bikers on the Champs-Elysees, 1 million people long the path of the funeral procession. And this song was played when the coffin penetrated in the church.
Johnny was a real vocal powerhouse, but for this concert , in this last night, best perf, the mics were balanced in favor of Lara: he wanted her to shine and found this gave more drama to the duet.
• The song:
this is an anthem song for him, that he used to sing alone. This was turned into a duet for Lara.
The story of the song was created in reference to a very famous old french classic movie: Le Jour se Leve (1939) where the main character is barricaded and surrounded by the police, having killed a bad man who was his rival in love affairs.
Here it becomes more a « Bonnie and Clyde » scene where the main character and her girlfriend are defying the police.
• The venue/event:
Johnny’s concerts in Stade de France ( biggest stadium in Paris and France) in front of min 80,000. Lara was one of the surprise special guest.
They were supposed to perform it 3 times in a row on September 1998 (4th, 5th and 6th).
The first night on the 4th, it was deluge of rain, the scene was outdoor, it was risky and they decided at the last minute, with the crowd in the stadium, to postpone it to Sep 11th . Johnny was devastated.
The second night and the third night the weather was fine enough. The orchestra and choir setup was amazing, the choir especially which was distributed on huge stairs climbing to the sky.
But the night of 11th, the rain was here again. Johnny absolutely refused to cancel this time.
This is this Sep 11th show that you just watched and the rain just added some dramatic effect to the whole performance. The orchestra was located under a tent. The choir was grouped on the floor and on some balconies (not on stairs anymore obviously)
• Lara:
she was at the beginning of her career in France and this performance became legendary and accelerated her fame there. She was unknown in France when, in February 1998, she performed this song in duet with Johnny for Les Enfoires, the most attended France TV Show of each year.
Johnny was so surprised and amazed by Lara performance that he decided to do this song again as a duet with her for the 3 big concerts a few months later. In between February and September, the album Pure from Lara had become an absolute mega hit in France, and Lara was already a star.
But this live performance where she performs as a surprise guest definitely extended her fame and she got new fans across the entire country.
Un grand Merci !!!!!!
Un duo légendaire ... Incroyable
Simplement « BRAVO!!! 👌 » pour le contexte !!!
Thank you for sharing this. I knew JH as a big star of French-RnR, but didn't knew that Lara had her start in France with this concert (I think Pure is her 3rd album).
@@DeadBird-wp9of pure is her 3rd album indeed but the first to be a success in France. The first 2 albums were big successes in Quebec already.
Wonderful reaction Maddy!!...The boss Eric gave you the best video of this incredible performance😊!!.
..Thank you very much!!
First time i listend to this song i thought it was maby a little over the top....Lara was very young...but amazing. Now...after listening to Lara and Johnny maby 50 times i really like this dramatic a little over the top performance. It works for me much better. Thank you Maddy for your honest reaction.❤
it was intentional because Jonny sent heavy live was a French legend
This is a legendary performance and one of the highlights in Lara's long career she has said herself. It is meant to be overly dramatic, passionate and almost rock opera in style. One of the most incredible live performances I have ever watched. Her beautiful ballads are of a different nature of course but shows how incredibly versatile she is as an artist. She is one of the best female singers of all time and possibly _the_ best female performer on stage ever when it comes to presenting a story, bringing emotion and feeling into a performance.
Eric Sicard is Lara's number one fan with an ammo clip instead of a bullet, and I really appreciate his evangelising this extraordinary artist. Her acting, singing and Mona Lisa smile have given me a new obsession. This mini play is tremendous, but for Halloween, I personally would have liked Mademoiselle Hyde, either solo or with the supernova Dimash.
Love Lara ❤️
Love from Denmark ❤️
I agree with you that this song is a departure from Lara's "love ballad" poetic and lyrical offerings. She can masterfully cover any genre with perfect intensity and purpose though, and it is crucial for a great artist to expand their skills and go off on other journies. She's just so good at what she does, you can't ever get enough!
🇨🇦 Lara is a trained Lyric Soprano, and still studies to this day.
I have also been listening to some of her more recent songs. like "Choose what you love most" or "I am A-WA" or "Danse" !
The power Lara exhibits in this performance is absolutely amazing -- in an interview she was asked about the contact between the two..........she said that she was scared to sing with the Legend J.H. and it was her way to get over the fright -- there were over 80,000 attending the outdoor concert in the rain that night
Hello *Maddy,*
The context is very particular here.
Indeed, it was the first time that she sang in front of 80,000 people (the second, actuality, because she had already sung this same song with *Johnny* the day before) at the *Stade de France* with a singer from the stature of *Johnny* (called "the boss" in France by all French artists, the ultimate reference so!).
It was a unique moment in her very young career (she was still only known in Belgium at that time, and it's a tiny country compared to France).
For Belgian or Canadian artists (French speakers), when they want to take off their career internationally, France is the obligatory step (like it was for *Jacques Brel, Céline Dion, Stromaë, Lara Fabian, Angèle, Garou,* etc.).
The invitation from *Johnny Hallyday* to come and sing this song with him three evenings in a row (240 000 persons, so) at the stadium was unexpected.
And it was also this performance with *Johnny* that gave *Sony Music* the confidence to produce her internationally. It was, in a way, her knighthood that evening.
We then understand better why *Lara* put so much energy into it, even if it sometimes bordered on excess in her performance.
*"There are people who pass through our lives and transform our destinies forever (...),"* she declared on the day *Johnny's* death was announced.
Peace, people. ☮😉
Performance incroyable de Lara et Johnny ! Bien-sur l'ensemble est l’génial les paroles, la mise en scène, l'orchestration ... et tout ca sous la pluie . Sorry i don t speak very well englsih
When Johnny invited another artist to sing with him, no one refused! Especially when the concert is at the Stade de France, in front of 80,000 spectators.
Lara was just starting out, she didn't hesitate for a single second and she gave it her all!
💐 Bravo Bravo 👏👏👏🌹👏👏👏
Powerful, Triumphing ❤️ Love is Universal 🥲👏👏
Modern Opera , a little over the Top but the Orchestra made it Fantastic ☺️✌️❤️
I would like to point out that during rehearsals Johnny Hallyday would have asked Lara Fabian to sing I would like to point out that during rehearsals Johnny Hallyday would have asked Lara Fabian to sing with all her power, he wanted her to shine because she was his guest.
Confirmation from Lara Fabian herself this morning January 25, 2024 on the French channel “TF1” in the show “Bonjour la matinale”
This is why Johnny Hallyday is below vocally.
It was intentional on his part.
Johnny Hallyday was very generous.
Also note those who do not know or know very little about this singer Johnny Hallyday, he could easily rise very high too. Very big vocal power too.
I wanted to provide a clarification that I had already known for a long time but now with proof for those who belittle or who do not know this great performer.
I'll let you judge for yourself by listening to a few albums in their entirety:
"Rivière Ouvre ton lit" from 69, "Flagrant délit" from 71, "Insolitudes" from 73,
“Derrière l'amour” from 76
“Hallyday 84 Nashville en direct”
"Rock'n'roll attitude" from 85, "Gang" from 86, "Cadillac" from 89,
"Ça ne chanhe pas un homme" from 91,
“Ce que je sais” from 98, “Sang pour sang” from 99,
“A la vie à la mort” from 2002, “Ma vérité” from 2005, “L'attente” from 2012,
“Rester vivant” from 2014, his last posthumous album “Mon pays c'est l'amour” from 2018.
And so many other magnificent albums.. etccccc
Je tiens à préciser que lors des répétitions Johnny Hallyday aurait demandé à Lara Fabian de chanter avec toute sa puissance, il souhaitait qu'elle brille car elle était son invitée.
Confirmation de Lara Fabian elle-même ce matin 25 janvier 2024 sur la chaîne française "TF1"dans l'émission "Bonjour la matinale"
C'est pour cela que Johnny Hallyday est en dessous vocalement.
C'était volontaire de sa part.
Johnny Hallyday s'est montré très généreux..
Sachez également ceux qui ne connaissent pas ou très peu ce chanteur Johnny Hallyday, il pouvait facilement monter très haut lui aussi. Très grosse puissance vocale également.
Je voulais apporter une précision que je connaissais déjà depuis longtemps mais maintenant avec preuve pour ceux qui rabaissent ou qui ne connaissent pas ce grand interprète.
Je vous laisse en juger par vous-même en écoutant quelques albums en intégralité:
"Rivière Ouvre ton lit" de 69, "Flagrant délit" du 71, "Insolitudes" de 73,
"Derrière l'amour" de 76
"Hallyday 84 Nashville en direct"
"Rock'n'roll attitude" de 85, "Gang" de 86, "Cadillac" de 89, "Ça ne chanhe pas un homme" de 91,
"Ce que je sais" de 98, "Sang pour sang" de 99,
"A la vie à la mort" de 2002, "Ma vérité" de 2005, "L'attente" de 2012,
"Rester vivant" de 2014, son dernier album posthume "Mon pays c'est l'amour" de 2018.
Et tant d'autres albums magnifiques.. etccccc
I can just understand that in this big Johnny concert I can't imagine Lara singing "Je suis malade" or 'adagio' in front of thousands of bikers 😆.
I get your point, and I respect your taste. It took myself several hearings to start appreciating this one and now I love it so much.
you will love the Yentl medley, I recommend it next.
Well said!
Johnny tu nous manques,des soirées avec mon père et mes frère à écouter tes chansons en vidant des bouteilles de whisky.
Of course it felt "showy". They were acting out the feelings of the characters in the song. That's about all they could do with the story since there were no other sets or stagings. I don't think there would be much excitement or drama from the vocals alone, even with such powerful singers.
It's just acting ;) Thanks you for your reaction from France.
that's a duo!
This is nearly a Broadway performance.
This is something else than the classic ballads Lara sings . Lara can doe more other music styles.
This song goes about a man who kills his wife tot keep her, the police is coming to catch or kill him .
""Requiem pour in fou"" means ""death celebration for a madman"" .
Lara sings a second voice an lyrics added to the original song that Johnny normally sings alone...
The passion that Lara adds tot the performance an t he song is extraordinary ..
This is the best duet ever performed in France .
I always like to see people's reactions to this because I'm waiting for their reaction when Lara starts touching Johnny 😁
And what's interesting is that depending on the country, the reactions are very different.
I agree with you that they do a lot. For me it has to do with the style of Johnny Hallyday's shows, and the fact that this song is inspired by a movie, so I will say they play it like actors.
🇨🇦 LOL, great choice Eric ! Now maybe my turn ! Maddy, try reacting to " I am A-WA " by Lara !
Nice react.
Putting on a show was indeed the goal :)
The hyper-dramatic tone... well, I love it.
But I also understand what you mean. In reality, here, we can appreciate less the quality of her voice, the details, etc...
It's the duet that should be taken as a whole.
In any case, I love this song, and specifically this duet, this performance.
Not so much another version indoors, which I find a little less striking.
Oh! And yes... that rain! :D
R.i.p Johnny 😢
Lara ❤
elle est hypnotisante cette chanson !
So cute when you say requiem pour une fou in french ❤
belle chanson avec notre elvis francais 💖💫👏🙏🙏
Qui est le plus beau duo Johnny Hallyday et de Lara Fabian au monde
nous avons hélas perdu notre dieu de la chanson française une vrais bete de scene .il nous manque énormement notre Johnny Hallyday.je l'ai écouté chanter j'avais 8 ans ça fait 50 ans que je l'écoute. aucun artiste français ne pourra le remplacer.
Hello maddy, oui tu as raison lara et johnny sont plutôt brutal dans c3tte chanson, mes c'est bien que tu et réagi à cette chanson car tu as vu un nautre aspect de lara .
Les duos que tu dois regarder se lara sont
Lara et josh groban for alway's chansons exceptionnelle .
Lara et laura pausini la sollicitude
Lara et Michael Bolton the prayer celle la et hors norme las vegas 2010.
Sinon caruso et perdere amor en italien sous titre en anglais même concert que les chansons que tu as réagi
Et une chanson vraiment spéciale qui s'appelle tango ou lara chante sur une chaise et cest très sensuel et chaud
you can react to "Je t'aime" live in Paris from Lara it's beautiful

I thought she was incredible here I love this performance. So theatrical

Your pronunciation of Requiem pour un fou is not bad
Lovely Maddy
Look "tu es mon autre" jean-félix lalanne, lara fabian maurane 2008❤❤
Were you demonitized?
Never anything going on between them just playing a kind of operatic performance
Johnny bigger star in France it's the french Elvis ....
It's not aq ballad, but a REQUIEM....
Ah ces belges, des passionnés... C'est un peu kitsch
Tu préfèrerais le "grand" Plastic Bertrand
I think this song should be boycott..It s a story about a man who killed a woman, because she dumped him..This song talks about a crime against women, NOT LOVE..It s not about Romeo and Juliet... it s NOT a love story, it s about abusing power. on women , ....***If I can t have you, nobody will**** and believe me i m NOT a feminist.., but I m against FEMINCIDE..it happened to often, .. Women are killed every day , at the hand of their husbands, partners ,boyfriends..LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,,WE ARE TALKING ABOUT A MURDER HERE..These crimes happened every day all over the world...,and that s NOT A SINGING MATTER.....On one hand ,we are fighting against violence made to women, on the other hand, we are raving about a man who killed his partner girlfriend , or wife,. because he can t handle rejection, .WAOUH.. SO ROMANTIC.....where is the logic?????
arrête de bouger, on dirait le chien sur la plage arrière d'une voiture (Wackeldackel)!!
She is somewhat of a Leonard Cohen in her genre of song and music.
