First Time Reaction Michel Polnareff Goodbye Marylou (I CAN"T, SO BEAUTIFUL!) | Dereck Reacts

#michelpolnareff #goodbyemarylou #firsttimereaction #french80s
Hi all welcome back to another video Dereck Reacts back at it again! This time around we take a look at a first time reaction made possible via PATREON with Michel Polnareff and his song "Goodbye Marylou." What a stunning, well written composed song. A lush lift of strings and piano against this Michel's voice. It's still in my head, that a good sign! See my reaction now!

Michel Polnareff a.k.a. "L'Amiral" is really classical in french song and french culture. That song is very beautiful and his voice is so incredible. It can get so high. And, since you loved that song, you should also listen to and react to : "Lettre à France" also by Michel Polnareff. That song is pretty sad but so beautiful and i'm pretty sure that you will love it.

Hi Dereck, Thank you so much for this song, Michel Polnareff was a great singer in my country in France but he live in Los Angeles in USA, its a genius of the french music, he had a wonderful instrumental music and a magnificent voice. He sing another great songs: "lettre à France", "le bal des lazes", "l'homme prehisto", "dans ma rue", "je suis un homme", "tam tam", "je t'aime", "j'ai tellement de choses à dire", "qui a tué grand maman".
