Johnny Hallyday was the biggest rock star ever in France. He sold out the 80,000+ seats at the Stade de France at least 14😢 times. He played a concert at the Eiffel Tower in 2000 where over 750,000 people lined the streets and it was broadcast live. Requiem pour un Fou is a song about a man who kills his woman so only he could have her. He is holed up in his apartment,surrounded by police. He knows he is going to die in the morning at the hands of the police. The title translates “Requiem for a fool/madman”. This was Johnny’s signature song and he only ever shared this with Lara (he has many duets on many big hits with several artists). He loved to support new and upcoming singers. His career covered 60 years. He also acted in several films and tv shows. When he died in 2015 the country of France had a state funeral with millions of people lining the funeral procession route.

[@michelerobertson8276]

The best duet ever! So glad you did this one.

[@stephaniec859]

I knew that you will love it ! Lara is able to sing everything and be just unbelievable , amazing! Johnny Hallyday is our French Elvis. The most famous singer. And we love him. When he died, he recieved a national tribute.

[@donald1379]

love your reactions..Lara is a Godess...thaank you

[@patmac5884]

I love how protective you are of Lara! She is indeed a queen🥰

[@ericsicard910]

This version has english subtitles: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sIOUo56qlJWVn6M Now 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, and in this last of the 3 nights, 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 his girlfriend. Here it becomes more a « Bonnie and Clyde » scene where both 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.

Eric you are the man.Thank you.👍

[@dropzone9639]

This was a brave and bold prefomance for them. Not too many artists would tackle this. It is perfection from them both❤❤❤❤

[@ericsicard910]

And for the story, you are not the only one to be jealous here: Johnny’s young wife Laetitia asked Johnny to stop performing with Lara. There were special chemistry between Johnny and Lara, even if here their body languages were in sync with the story and the lyrics. It is sad for all of us as they could produce more masterpieces together (they only sang one other duet together).

[@legitor513]

Eric les bons tuyaus :)

[@dcchiasson5991]

Johnny said that Lara was one of the few singers who gave him goosebumps, and a female version of him in that she feels the songs she sings, just like he did. A great shame that they didn't collaborate more often.

[@lusciniamagna7032]

Ciao ACE non te l'ho aspettavi da LARA , sì lei può estrarre le unghie e graffiare in profondità , il bello di LARA è anche quello di essere fantastica e imprevedibile !!!! Ciao 🖐

[@blasbilbaoalvarez2817]

Johnny Hallyday was one of the best French singers and at his funeral in December 2017 he was fired by a million people as the coffin passed through the Champs-Élysées. He is the author of the song and the concert is his but he makes a WONDERFUL Duet with Lara. This concert in the rain was seen by 80,000 people live. Thank you so much

[@allizond]

Your reaction killed me lol I've been laughing for at least 10 minutes, THANK YOU!!! I love that !

[@AceTheHeart]

I am glad you enjoyed it. 😂😂👍

[@EmanuelRecemConvertido]

You've been choosing her vídeos with English subititles, which I think is great, but the only one you supposed to understand the powerful and "dark" lyrics you decided to get without English Sub. I feel both glad and sad about that. You need to undestand why both performed like that, specially Lara's role in this performance. Why she entered like that, so agressive. Promisse you gonna read the lyrics in English.😅😊 Thank u. 🙌🏽🙌🏽

[@YosvaniRamos-Ballet]

Love this performance ❤

[@ildefonsobenitez6624]

Duets and Lara's on Fire !

[@lilybee7334]

That was a great reaction, didn’t they sound amazing together? A lot of French artist are known for putting their heart and soul into their performances. Jacques Brel was possibly the best at it, but he died in 1978. Some of his performances are on KZbin, if you want to give him a try (Ne me quitte pas). If you’d like to discover some more recent great artist performing in French, check out French singers Barbara Pravi (Voila!) and Pomme (Les oiseaux), and Belgian-Rwandan artist Stromae (Formidable). Oh, and I’m from the Netherlands 🇳🇱

From Tango to this, haha! Meanwhile, can you imagine Lara belting like that in your ears? I wonder how his long ears rang for after this. I love this one so much! The subtitles would have given you a lot of insight.

[@dirkvoorspoels6203]

This is a like a Broadway performance, a duet of the two biggest performers of that time in France...1998..Johnny Halliday, the legend of rock star in the french speaking world an many other countrys in Europ and Lara Fabian the coming up star of France ....In a stadion of 80.000 spectators in three session . "Requiem pour un fou" means ""A dead celebration for a madman" . A man that became mad of love and who killed his wife to keep her and the police is coming tot get him whit guns ...... There are versions with Englisch suptitles of """Requiem pout un fou'.. You never seen Lara like this ?? Then you can admire Lara in the music movie ""Mademoiselle Zjivago"". A beautiful movie of 51 minutes made in 2010 in Russia ...Whit all new songs composed and wrote by the very famous Ukrainian composer in Russia Igor Krutoy and Lara Fabian in the year 2010.... kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5DZooOdo5yKiKc Lara sang also songs for a few movies The movie "Final fantasies"".....song : The dream within kzbin.info/www/bejne/noW2eqFtaKaCf9U AI from Steven Spielberg For always kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIO9oqWZoZmCfqc And so much more ......

Requiem pour un fou = Requiem for a fool Johnny Hallyday was the rock legend for France like Elvis was for U.S.

Hi Ace, sorry but I love to see you jealous 😷. You are just so spontaneous and saying out loud what many feel 😉. Here are 2 other songs, in Italian with Lara. But it is again about voice and body language. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qKqUqHmDrNycmsU and kzbin.info/www/bejne/gqbHfaqAjNJ6ZpY... Enjoy !
