TWINKLE Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 I have a friend who cannot go to the Michel Polnareff concert on the 13th March at Bercy, Paris. There will be 10 concerts at Bercy in all and they're all sold out. If anyone is interested then pm me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teamedup Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 He was the first french pop star I remember hearing in 1981 and more importantly liking, with big dark white/light framed glasses and curly long hair. His music was always on the local radio station, and the refrain was something like Ay di oh on his most famous song of the time. Thinking about it, I'd love to know what that song was, maybe I should listen to Radio Nostaligie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TWINKLE Posted March 10, 2007 Author Share Posted March 10, 2007 It's 'Radio' isn't it TU? I couldn't find a video for that one. Anyway, just for anyone who's now a fan - here's another great one.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sSPjDrAFD6QHere's another one he wrote when he moved to the States many years ago - it's called 'Lettre a France'http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GjXVsSH76O8Very moving.

BJSLIV Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 Biography and extracts from a large number of his songs......http://musique.ados.fr/Michel-Polnareff.htmlI was trying to think if there are any UK singers who could make a comeback 34 years on, and sell out a 10 night run 130,000+ tickets, and then embark on a national tour.Oh and they have added two more nights at Bercy.....

Clair Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 I remember that poster and the fact it made the news on tv...For non-French speakers, this is his Wiki entry in English: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michel_Polnareff and a RadioFrance International biography.

EDIT it crashed yet again, but just as I posted this earlier.All very strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
