Breaking the Sunday torpor, Julien Doré and Eddy de Pretto published a nice duet on Sunday evening, The lethal Weapon, in which the two singers entwine their voices on a melancholy piano. A stripped-down song whose meaning is difficult to understand, although it seems to evoke the long months of the pandemic over the past two years.
“I have the fatal tear but I forgot nothing, you know? Everything is uncertain and everything is scattered“, notably sings Eddy de Pretto, while Julien Doré continues”Life hurts me with its rolls of the dice, dying is okay, everyone’s doing it“. And the two of them sing the chorus”Oh oh she’s not beautiful life, she’s not beautiful“…
The duo is accompanied by a clip co-directed by Julien Doré and his faithful videographer Brice VDH, which begins with a falsely tense and humorous atmosphere to defuse, as always, the melancholy-sentimental aspect of the affair.
This first single announces the upcoming reissue of the album Loved by Julien Doré in an augmented version. This new version promised for November 26 will offer nine new titles. The singer indicated that he will donate his income from the sale of this record to the association Les Blouses Roses whose volunteers work with hospitalized children and the elderly.
Julien Doré and Eddy de Pretto, who admire each other, had been circling around for a while. They have already sung together Like a boomerang (Dani / Daho) in Taratata and also took over as a duo Paris-Seychelles.
Julien Doré, who has not visited concert halls for almost four years, will be on tour throughout France from next February, until the end of the year, with a Parisian stopover of three dates at AccorHotel Arena de Bercy (April 8, 9 and 10, 2022). April 8 is already full, as are several Zénith in the regions.
A month ago, he wrote on Instagram that he was writing the future show for this tour for which he will direct “what I have never dared yet“.
