Michel Polnareff makes his musical comeback and at the same time media with a new record: Polnareff sings Polnareff, reinterpretation of twelve of his greatest songs in piano voice. A comeback that warms his heart, after the disappointment of his album Finally! in 2018 which was poorly received and whose tour ended with emergency hospitalization and lawsuits with its producer. Like a phoenix, the one who has lived for four decades in Palm Springs in the United States is reborn. He has just formalized his French tour in the columns of Parisianwhich will begin in Nice next May and will pass through Paris-Bercy Accor Arena on July 2, 2023. He confided in the daily, revealing to have made a difficult journey to arrive in the heart of the metropolis.
The interpreter of Love Me, Please Love Me, crossed the Atlantic, not without difficulty, for the promotion of this disc. An album he was reluctant to make: “I didn’t think it was so necessary. I let myself be convinced by the envy of the public and by Serge Khalifa, my new manager and friend… Because I had terrible doubts. After a record where everything is licked, when you start again, you have the impression of sounding like shit… In addition, I had been very disappointed by the album Finally!, by the assassination of the record, so I was very reluctant to do another one.”
A trip well worth it! For daily life, Danyellah’s companion and adoptive father of Louka explains the circumstances of his trip: “I slept very badly, because of the jet-lag“, apologizes Michel Polnareff to the Parisian. In this tone “cash, caustic, curious, warm“that he explain in more detail the conditions of his arrival in France:”And to come back, I had the worst flight of my life, of my life… Nine hours of turbulence, absolutely horrible. But I’m here.“He has known hardships at any age, like facing his father who did not spare him when the call of rock took him away. Today at 78, stronger than ever, he promises to ensure the show.
We should find him by the end of November in two major shows on TF1 and France TV, to be continued…!
