It is a very emotional sequence which will surely mark the history of Vianney has
The Voice
. Coach of the program for four seasons, the singer was overcome by emotion during the performance of Mewhy, a young Belgian singer of 27 years old came to propose Holidays by the sea by Michel Jonasz. A title that Vianney seemed to know like the back of his hand, and which he murmured throughout the candidate’s performance. Very moved, overwhelmed by the words, Vianney preferred close your eyes during the whole songincluding after having turned around in order to remain in the context of a blind performance.
Overwhelmed by emotion at the end of the performance, Vianney was somewhat frustrated by the super-block that Mika brutally hit him with. The singer, although automatically turned away by his opponent, nevertheless wanted to thank Mewhy for the emotions he transmitted to him, and which took him back to his childhood, with his parents, by the sea: “I was incapable of showing ferocity anyway (…) You brought up things from my childhood in me. This song is my parents, because we are a large family, And vacations at the sea were the simple joy of the year, for which they bled all their lives. It was their whole life.” testified Beau-Papa’s interpreter.
And to continue: “I held on for the whole song (…) but I wanted to thank you, because we also come for that. When you bring back childhood, and parents, parents’ sacrifices, it’s the greatest gift in the world. The Voice or not The Voice, I don’t care, I had a great time, and I thank you for that.”

Coming from a 100% male family of four childrenoriginally from Pau in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques, Vianney comes from a practicing Catholic family. His family, full of music-loving soldiers, quickly gave him a taste for sport (he practiced rugby then long jump, a discipline in which he also excelled by becoming champion of Yvelines as a teenager), but also music. His father was a helicopter pilot in the Army’s light aviation; her mother, a former airplane pilot, chose to retrain professionally by becoming a teacher, then associate professor of economics and management.
