Ginette Reno Reaction Je Ne Suis Qu'une Chanson (HOLDING IT IN!) | Dereck Reacts

[@remyasmar418]

Ginette Reno is the greatest French female singer of all time, period!!!

[@annie-claudeletarte6588]

Ginette Reno est une des nos plus grandes artistes québécoises. Sa voix est fabuleuse. Bravo pour ton ouverture aux artistes de la francophonie!

[@nadinehebert7709]

So sorry for all of Celine fans, but for me, Ginette is the best voice of Quebec. I think she likes to sing here and there without her mic to show her powerful voice. She did that also in a huge church in Montreal. Can't remember if it was at Celine's wedding or something else. That woman gives me goosebumb after just a few notes. Can you believe that she kept all that power and be so precise on notes while losing her hearing?! She's not deaf, but she did say that she doesn't hear well anymore. She's quite a woman!

[@marysedattore308]

I agree. She's the only singer who can sing with Céline and be the star. She's our hidden treasure. She's Québec's greatest singer. Even Céline would agree 😉

[@ValQc89]

OMG lolll i agree x10000 Vive Ginette

[@QuikTeam]

I mean Celine is no slouch at all but Ginette clearly has a much more powerful voice and is on another level entirely. Celine is an essay in what Ginette could have been if she chose international stardom over her family.

[@deathangellink]

100% sure even Celine agree, she put Ginette on the HIGHEST level of respect.

[@melaniepoulin7518]

Dont be sorry . Ginette is the best voice of Quebec . Yes Celine is amazing but Ginette give me chills when I hear her more than Celine. And Im glad we could keep her local here in Quebec

[@NadiaNadeau]

In Quebec, everyone knows Ginette, but seeing you react to that song literally made me cry, good job man!

[@denisvincent2651]

The pianist is Diane Juster. She wrote this great song. And many others. I saw a show of madame Reno at the Place des Arts, in Montréal, a few years ago . She did this song, at the end of the show, with the final, at capella, without her microphone. 2500 persons gave her the longuest standing ovation i ever saw.

[@nottoday2582]

She was 60 years old in this video. Just that fact amazes me. One of the greatest French singing voices, as long with piaf, brel, fabian, aznavour and Dion. Thanks for this.

[@outshyne666]

[@AsAMonkeyInAPinata]

This song, titled “I’m only a song” takes a whole other dimension when you know that this women grew up in a very poor family and already at 8 yrs old would spend her nights singing in bars to help out her parents. This is , and was, public knowledge. My mother actually went to school with her, same class. Everyone knew, and she was known to be tough (gotta be when growing up doing bar shows - taverns actually, where women weren’t yet allowed to go in).

[@chantalou22]

This song is about love, truth, passion. Three things that Ginette is.

[@chantalou22]

How does she do this? She once said that her father was hospalized for a disease and the doctor told him that he would never be able to have children again (he and his wife already had two). On the day he received his leave from the hospital, Ginette's mother went to church and prayed to God to give them a third child and to "please" give that child a special gift and I will consacrate her to you". That third child was Ginette.

This is one of the great songs interpreted by Ginette Reno. If i’m not mistaken the lyrics were written by author and singer Diane Juster. (Ms Reno made the headlines in Quebec yesterday because she was hospitalized after fainting. According to her daughter she is fine but will have to stay in hospital for a few days to have other tests).

[@pierre-olivierturmel1705]

In the video, this is Diane Juster who play the piano. I met her once and she is one of the classier, elegant and cool woman I ever met. Unfortunately, I never met Mme Reno but think she is one of the best singers around. The combination of work of those 2 great ladies result in that wonderful song! If you like Ginette Reno, I recommend you the song Les Croissants de soleil from the early 70's. What a great song, my favourite of her.

[@marcl4000]

News about Ms Reno that came out today: She said she has heart disease. "One is operable and the other must be taken seriously and adequately medicated," explained the Quebec diva. Ms. Reno spoke of her desire to live fully. “I am a being who has always loved life with inordinate intensity and limitless passion. And still today, I am living this hospitalization to the full! She wrote. The singer said she was "in many good hands," and took the time to thank the health workers who cared for her. She will be hospitalized until she is "fully on her feet and in good health," she said. Ginette Reno wishes to give a benefit concert in honor of Pierre-Boucher Hospital when her condition allows.

I didn't spare myself tonight, I told my whole life, As it didn't show That prudishness isn't a thing to me. At the pace of my fantaisies, tonight I shared with you my life, It may be a dream or reality, But it's still the truth. But I'm only a song I cry and laugh at every feeling With tears in my eyes or smile, I made love to you as good as I could. But I'm only a song Nothing less or more than a momentum of passion You may call me a dream seller, But I give love like some give reason. I didn't want to hide anything to you tonight, I didn't keep any secret, As it didn't show I needed to talk about myself for a while. I didn't hold myself back tonight, I revealed myself almost naked to you, On this too bright stage I could barely save myself from my inner self. But I'm only a song, I cry and laugh at every feeling With tears in my eyes or smile, I made love to you as good as I could. But I'm only a song Nothing less or more than a momentum of passion You may call me a dream seller, But I give love like some give reason. But I'm only a song, I cry and laugh at every feeling With tears in my eyes or smile, I made love to you as good as I could.

He later became the inpresario for many artist but particulary Ginette Reno his plan to conqueer the wolrd with a very talented singer start with Ginette Reno but she refused to become an international star because she has a familly and kids that need her. So when he met Céline Dion all he had to do is to take the Ginette Reno plan a reality but with Céline Dion instead. The rest is history.

That's 2000 or later. She always had a weight problem, but at a certain point, she just said F! IT!!! and this is after that time. Good for her.
