« No concept of social distancing » 😂 you killed me with this one! Lara is the queen of resonance in the world music and it shows up in this legendary duet! In fact, she even can sing in 10,000+ venues without a mic thanks to this. She is nicknamed "The Ring" in the music world. Johnny told, the day😢 he met Lara: "you are me as a woman". Johnny’s young wife became jealous of their on-stage chemistry and made sure there were almost no other future collaboration. Only one other duet after this one, 2 years later.

[@robertsirois8341]

She sings from her soul to ours, in all her songs, still today at 53yo she is the all time best female vocaliste of this century her voice still mesmerizing and she is so gorgeous. Listening to Lara and you are screwed for now and forever..Shes got you..helpless and spellbound..Amazing woman!!

[@ericsicard910]

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.

Thanks for all this great info!

[@caroledsd1243]

bonjour Pierre, je croyais que c'était Line Renaud la marraine de Johnny?

[@ericsicard910]

@@caroledsd1243 oui la marraine télé en effet. Mais il a aussi été coaché par Edith Piaf quand il était ado et il y a même une interview où il dit qu’elle a tenté de coucher avec lui 😀 Typique d’Edith 😂 Il a aussi eu Charles Aznavour comme parrain, il a meme été hébergé chez lui pendant 2 ans et Charles lui a écrit Retiens la nuit.

[@rudideghelt]

Tout ce qui est écrit ci-dessus est correct. Lara vit actuellement en Belgique, son pays natal. C'est une femme sensible et plein de gentillesse. Une grande Dame. Je n e sais pas si vous avez déjà écouté : kzbin.info/www/bejne/qp-nfnZ-bt15pKs Un bonjour de Belgium

[@ericsicard910]

@@rudideghelt oui bien sûr que je connais et Bob aussi car c’est la réaction précédente qu’il a fait de Lara. Mais si je peux me permettre, cette version video est de bien meilleure qualité que la version que tu as postée: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o5TQmXacfZ6CnLM

[@gerardadegroof]

Lara is from another level

[@tommylarsson2025]

Another planet!

[@jean-louisdo4759]

Lara is so close to her partner because the characters in this mini play are a diabolical couple, a kind of Bonnie and Clyde, surrounded by police waiting to die in the morning. Once again, she plays the role that the lyrics tell her to play, whatever that role may be.

[@Thierry-france66]

Lara thé best. And Johnny RIP

[@bannoutbaby8019]

Emotional earthquake, Physical and Vocal! Orchestra is chilling! ❤‍🔥

[@ildefonsobenitez6624]

Two huge performers for a breathtaking show

[@philomenaa1939]

Johnnys wife forbid him to sing with Lara again after she watched this performance.

[@khandialexander7594]

the audience did not know lara was there. she was a surprize for the crowd.

[@user-od8ro5ie9n]

Rare était les chanteurs invités à chanter par Johnny Hallyday a ses concerts, c'était un honneur. Cette chanson de Johnny date des années 70, elle a été réécrite pour que Johnny puisse la chanter avec Lara. C'est l'un des plus beaux duos en France

[@ModernLifeForThe70sMind]

Now that I've learned more about him, I can see why it would be special to have the opportunity to sing with him. This was such an amazing song to listen to. So powerful!

[@alyssia_vlt]

This live was in front of 80,000 people in a big stadium in France, it was Jonnhy who invited Lara to sing his song with him because he said that Lara is him as a woman, and as she began to be more and more popular, he wanted the guest to help her and spend a magical moment with her because he appreciates her enormously. Thanks for this reaction, i've really loved it !

[@ModernLifeForThe70sMind]

It's great to hear that he had such respect for Lara. The two of them together really created a magical moment. This song was so different from what I've normally heard from her, that it made a real impression on me. Thanks so much for the listen.

[@janettetippetts7942]

Wow, did you play a great one this time! And thanks to Eric also!

[@dirkvoorspoels6203]

""Requiem"" is a celebration in the church for someone who is passed away ... ""Requiem for a fou"", means here a celebration for a madman, for someone who is already dead because the police is going to kill him . The man in the song killed his wife to keep her by himself. For a duet, a special second lyrics has been added for the second voice to the original lyrics that Johnny sings. Johnny chose Lara because of the beauty of her voice and the passionate way Lara sings , just like Johnny himself does .... This is the best pop/ rock duet ever in France. Lara is so powerful, the Belgian powerhouse.....This performance is a Broadway performance of en pop/rock song ... Lara is Belgian from origin, but Johnny who is (was) the biggest rock star of France whit a 60 years carrier, has also in some way Belgian roods .... Lara sang with the biggest French singers , also with Michel Sardou kzbin.info/www/bejne/opCud35qpdB5jMk

[@lota7255]

Johnny's funeral in 2017 there were 3 French presidents ( Sarkozy, Hollande and Macron ) 1 million French people in front of the church and 16 millions in front of the television, he is the French Elvis Presley ...

[@Royal_BLT]

🇨🇦 I am late with this one, sorry ! Lara is the Best, in whatever she does ! This collaberation was extraordinary ! Keep going, there are a lot more songs of Lara's to react to !

[@roxanalourdescuellaranez9163]

Siempre he Sido una fanática de la gran Lara Fabián, te recomiendo Tango Mi Amor... es una maravilla. Gracias por reaccionar❤

[@ModernLifeForThe70sMind]

I see some videos labeled "Tango". Same song?

[@theglanconer6463]

Beyond beautiful. Hell yeah very Bonnie and 'Clydish'. Choirs, gritty Johnny and wicked Lara. Better than 99,99% of the movies Hollywood churns out :)

[@pilarrizzo5723]

React quédate.. she sings in Spanish also

[@AndyMillerPhotoUK]

Jonny’s concert at the Stade de France in Septmber 1998, was delayed due to very very heavy rain. Yes it was still raining during this performance. Lara was one of t duets sprinkled among the 36 tracks Jonny performed that night. I very strongly recommend getting hold of the 4 LP “Jonny allure le feu” (jonny Lights the Fire) released by Mercury - also on 3 CD.

[@tompham637]

After this performance, Johnny wife was not happy with him, 😂 😂 😂 ! She asked him not to sing with Lara again. They both are fantastic. Thank you for the great reaction ( à la française ) 😂 !

[@lillm6874]

Great performance, and also great comments from you.

Thanks so much! I really appreciate that, although I appreciate their singing much more than my comments. LOL

[@crazycatlady7621]

Just incredible!!! Such beauty and grace. She is definitely top tier!! Dude dude dude!!!!!!! You have been slacking on us!!! I have been very patiently waiting for some more Marcin and my patience has worn out! I need Marcin Patrzalek reactions please!! LOL 😆 🤣 😂 Anyway...he has a new one out from the Carmen Opera. It is phenomenal and shows how much he has grown as an artist. OR he has another one Guitar VS Piano. That one is incredible as well. You pick. But please react to him. I greatly enjoy your reactions to him. You bring different incites and observations to the table. I enjoy hearing your take. So please don't make me wait too much longer. Thanks!!! Love and hugs from Texas!! (You probably don't remember but I'm the one who got you started on him. Thank you!!!!)

[@ModernLifeForThe70sMind]

Hi! Yep, he's on my short list. I've heard from a number of you that I've been slacking. LOL Hang in there. I'll get to one in the next two weeks. Thanks!

[@sishan69]

Thanks for your many good reactions! In Norway we get to know a new wonderful lady through Voice Norway 2024. Her name is Inger Lise Hope, singing Addagio in the blind auditions. It would be wonderful to see your reaction to her 😊

[@tirallala1]

👉This show was performed in front of 80,000 peoples. Requiem means: Funeral, Funeral Mass, Funeral Service. So it's a religious piece of music, an obituary, performed during a funeral. The song is about a man who has killed his lover wants to commit suicide by provoking a police officer to kill him. The story of the song based on a very famous old classic French film: Le Jour se Leve (1939) in which the main character barricades himself after killing his girlfriend and is now surrounded and besieged by the police. * Johnny Halliday, *1943, singer, songwriter and actor. He died in 2017, all of France mourned. His funeral was televised live to tens of millions of people across Europe and Canada. 3 French Presidents were present at his funeral, including Emmanuel Macron, who delivered a 12-minute farewell address to thousands of people on the steps of the church. Johnny received a full state funeral. Paris stood still, they closed the Champs-Elyse for his funeral procession and about a million people lined up to bid him farewell. He had a 57-year career from 1960 to 2017, sold over 100 million albums, recorded over 1000 songs and wrote or co-wrote hundreds of songs. Not only was he a great musician, but he was also a very humble man out of the limelight. Johnny Halliday is a legend in France like Elvis in America.

[@ModernLifeForThe70sMind]

There is so much more to this guy than I ever imagined. Thanks so much for sharing all of that. I appreciate it.

[@SeanBressie]

🎶🇫🇷😍

[@anthonyl.6879]

I have few thinks to say about this video. Some people can think the gestures are exaggerated. You have to put in context. This is a live concert in a stadium with tens of thousands of people, in a rainy day. You have to do this so anyone can get the message. About the song, it is based on a french movie from 1939. " Le jour se leve" , in english it is called " daybreak or " day rise". With famous french actor: Jean Gabin. It is a story of a guy who killed somebody because of love and now, at sun rise, the police is going to storm his apartment and kill him. In flashback , we see how the all story happend. Lara and Johnny are french incons.

[@ericsicard910]

I suggest, for your next reaction to Lara, one of these: - Broken Vow : an english song she wrote based on her story, that has been covered by Barbra Streisand, Josh Groban, Cakra Khan, Morissette Amon, Regine Velasquez, Gigi de Lana, Latrina Velarde, Almira (4th impact), kzbin.info/www/bejne/oXuleHZ_bcaGe5Y - I guess I loved You: another english song she wrote, highlighting her head voice skills kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6isXnt_m7isp7c - her cover of Dolly Parton’s (Whitney’s) I Will always Love You kzbin.info/www/bejne/apeQqKtjqsprb7c - her most famous hit in the US: a pop dance song that stayed #1 on the US Dance Club Billboard for more than 1 year kzbin.info/www/bejne/iKaxgY2tg5Zmh5I

He had five diamond albums, 40 golden albums, 22 platinum albums and earned ten Victoires de la Musique. He sang an estimated 1,154 songs and performed 540 duets with 187 artists. Credited for his strong voice and his spectacular shows, he sometimes arrived by entering a stadium through the crowd and once by jumping from a helicopter above the Stade de France, where he performed 9 times. Among his 3,257 shows completed in 187 tours, the most memorable were at Parc des Princes in 1993, at the Stade de France in 1998, just after France's win in the 1998 FIFA World Cup, as well as at the Eiffel Tower in 2000, which had record-breaking ticket sales for a French artist. A million spectators gathered to see his performance at the Eiffel Tower, with some 10 million watching on television.

[@ModernLifeForThe70sMind]

Wow, that's truly impressive I had read that he was quite popular but didn't realize the extent of it. Thanks so much for this information.

[@weescotildweescotild6875]

Great reaction! Both are magical And as you are just discovering Johnny..😉 I'd suggest you react to the following epic songs by him: "Derrière l'Amour" live Eiffel Tower kzbin.info/www/bejne/mXbHlWyghraJmKc "Diego" live Bercy 92 kzbin.info/www/bejne/mpfMeYCqns1od8U Those performances are just breathtaking..

[@TTkingsman]

Lara is Queen Lara! This is the second dimension of her. You definitely have to watch her third dimension. She has even more surprising side for you to watch. 😁 Here... kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y2mYhWCfh5yXnMU I don't know if Eric has already suggested this for you, but you should check this. If Eric knows a better quality clip, choose that. But anyway, it is really worth of watching. Absolutely impressive vocal performance, almost acrobatic. And not just that...well, you'll see. 😉

[@miclodmarie4554]

You must listen Lara singing « I will always love » of Whitney Houston. For sure you will blow away 🤩🤩🤩🤩
