Hello Dereck ! J'ai écumé la toile internet des réactions par curiosité...et tu demeures le meilleur, ta sincérité de réactions de clip vidéo est assurément un bonheur, une fenêtre culturelle qui redonne le sourire en ces temps troubles. Un immense merci de partager ton ressenti ! Ta popularité ne cesse de s'accroître en France. Des médias radio font tes éloges ! Enjoy ! Nous en voulons encore et encore ! God save Dereck ! ;-)
Exactement ! Sa fraicheur à la découverte de nos vieux tubes est salutaire ! Je ne remercierai jamais assez mon pote GK pour m' avoir passé un lien, un jour, comme ça 😎 . j' ai l' impression de tout redécouvrir ! Je kiffe ! Merci Dereck ! Thanks ! 😊
Merci encore Dereck, France love you so much 💚💛❤️
Fascinating exactly! C'est une chanson grandiose qui permet à Balavoine de donner toute l'amplitude, intensité, et originalité de sa voix. Pas assez connue et moins facile que d'autres mais tellement belle et liée à l'album qui lui a donné une première reconnaissance critique et même du public, certes pas comparable à ce qui est advenu l'année suivante mais quand même, elle est passée plusieurs fois à la télévision.
La programmatrice de RTL de l’époque, Monique Le Marcis, l’avait imposée aux auditeurs : elle avait menacé de démissionner s’il n’était pas diffusé.
@@chrizzend8445 Oh my God !
Daniel Balavoine, one of the best voice from France❤
This song is about the Berlin wall. It's one of his best...
And the lyrics are loosely inspired by "Le Dormeur du Val" from poet Arthur Rimbaud. As the narrator is already dead after being shot.
Oh yes, I love this album! Thus album is a story, every song is a chapter... So beautiful, so intense....
If you loved the story of Simon and Gunther, you should try "Berlin, de l'autre côté du mur", a french play by Sandrine Gauvain. She was inspired by Les Aventures de Simon et Gunther and she made wonders with it 🤩
Il was not composed or written by Michel Berger but Michel Berger wanted to meet Balavoine after listening to It. And They became friends thanks to this song that Berger and his wife France Gall listened on TV in 1977.
Thanks for the clarification ❤️
"Lady Marlène", recorded in 1977 , was not a hit. His producer , Eddie Barclay was VERY angry ! ( Little news . Eddie Barclay was married 8 times , with 8 different wifes ! This not a fake news. The names are on Wikipedia . This man has really a strong brain ). And so , you know it , in 1978 , Daniel Balavoine recorded his first hit , " Le Chanteur ".
What a song ! This man is a legend, you are right. I have listened to this LP "Les aventures de Simon et Gunther" so many times back then. I love the way you analyze songs. I don't, I just feel them. (Michel Berger has nothing to do with this LP.) Daniel Balavoine has created all by himself this song and most of the LP. Before starting his own career with this record, Daniel Balavoine was one of the backing vocalists of Patrick Juvet a Swiss man ("I love America", "Où sont les femmes ?" "des bleus au coeur"...). I met him one day at the airport going to Barcelona like him. I still remember the softness of his eyes.
Right ! Berger met him later. This song was before he met success with "Le chanteur" in 1978. It is part of a whole album about the wall of Berlin entirely composed by Balavoine. Nice but not commercial for the radio stations at all in the disco wave...
Very soft good observation
@@DereckReacts I am french and I I know Balavoine but I didn't knew this one. Thank you !
@@DereckReacts Hi Dereck, i would recommend 1972 :
"Amoureuse" from Véronique Samson 💛
My favorite Balavoine song and my favorite Goldman song on the same day!! Thank you!!
Bonjour Dereck, et merci pour ce partage ! J'ai vu les débuts de Daniel Balavoine en 1977 sur la télévision française, et tout de suite, je l'avais apprécié. Il a chanté plusieurs morceaux de l'album "Les Aventures de Simon et Gunther", et cela m'a paru comme une sorte de comédie musicale dramatique. Magnifique personne !
The first time we could listen to him on radio was with this song ... first wondering who was this new (female) singer then understanding he was going to be a big artist with that amazing instrumentation.
By the way, Lady Marlène he's calling to is supposed to be german actress and singer Marlène Dietrich who fled Nazi Germany (hence instrumentation that sounds like a piece of pre WW2 Threepenny Opera - see jazz classic Mack the Knife - or Dietrich's Blue Angel). One of her best known song was "Lili Marleen"
Sorry but the very first time you could listen to him on radio was with a former title called "Elise et Moi" and true almost everybody thought is was Danielle Balavoine and not Daniel Balavoine !
Balavoine time ! ! My favorite! ❤️
I m french and i didn't know that song !! Wow thanks dereck ! You will be elected the new "french music ambassador" in U.S. !!! Calm down... don't need to move to Washington you can stay in california....👍👍👍👍🙏
"Dieu que c'est beau beau" ( Big Hit on Radio till this day.) I love the fretless bass sound in this song and the 80's synths.
"POUR LA FEMME VEUVE QUI S'EVEILLE"❗❗(Crazy synths ahead of its time with superb finish..)Love the african singing at the End💖.
(Not the live version please it loses its itensity..) 😥 The Video is great.
Frida est dans le choeur de Dieu que c'est beau et une autre chanteuse dont j'ai oublié le non.
Vous avez un frère nommé Alfa...?🙄😁
As far as I am concerned this is Balavoine’s masterpiece, althouh underated: Les aventures de Simon et Gunther’.
A story happening post WW2, in the divided Germany.
LOVE IT.
I agree with you. The entire album is great.
Un enfant assis attend la pluie was his last song, so powerful
very strong one
for me his most beautiful song
Magnifique ! Comme chacune de ses chanson , je vous recommande "Tape avec ta tête"
MISTRAL GAGNANT FROM RENAUD or another but renaud surely ! To complete your fench song knowedge it's indispensable as cabrel (je l'aime à mourir,petite,marie,...)
Renaud? Yeah I like "Dès que le vent soufflera" from him ^^
Good call.
This song is taken from D.Balavoine first "concept" album called "Les Aventures de Simon et Gunther ..." and the first of his songs that had some radio success at the time. Almost nobody knew who he was and what it'll become a year after (1978) with "Le Chanteur".
Instrumentation is some reflection of pre-world war II type of music .. hence the title calling to Marlène Dietrich.
Album is a collection of song telling the story of 2 brothers separated by the construction of the Berlin wall and the attempt to flee East Berlin ... but Simon is shot by VOPO's when attempting to get through.
It's not the first song ever aired on radio at that time, the first song heard on radio by D.Balavoine is called "Evelyne et moi"
From the same album listen to "Mon pauvre Gunther" ruclips.net/video/7tyCrqhfpdw/видео.html
Thank you for the partage :)
As I am fan for Daniel Balavoine, I knew this song but I didn't known this performance, really thanks to love french singers as Daniel Balavoine, Michel Berger and Mylène Farmer :)
Thank you for watching!
Thank you so much for your react.
hello Dereck,
Thank’s for this wonderful video 😊👍!!
This song is part of a complete album,
"The adventures of Simon and Gunther"
With the texts and the music entirely composed by Daniel Balavoine, he had imposed on his producer, to make this record, to be totally free to do everything and choose everything (recording studio, musicians, staging of songs etc.) when it was not yet known in 1977,
This album tells the story of a family separated during the construction of the Berlin Wall. All the songs follow each other to tell this story.
the album, very dark, but sublime, was released in the middle of the disco period !! Village people with WMCA was broadcast continuously on all radio stations ...
the first title (the one that gives its name to the album) on television did not work, totally rejected by the public because too dark .. too political. On the other hand the second, "Lady Marlène" that we are listening to, began to be appreciated at its true value following this passage on television. And it is there, by the greatest of luck, that Michel Berger saw him! At this moment he was thinking about a musical comedy project .. Starmania!
When he saw Daniel Balavoine, he said to himself, « I found the hero of my show !! » Then they never left each other again.
"Les aventures de Simon et Gunther" is one of his best albums, from the beginning to the end!
Some moments of pure "plaisir" again 🤩😍😍💐💐💐 So funny to see you with a big smile before listening and watching Daniel 🤩🤩🤩 Your eyes shine by anticipation 😍😍😍💐💐💐 And this sing is about Marlene Dietrich, the blue angel, and this style of music from 30's 😍🤩😍🤩💐💐 Thanks a lot again 💐💐💐
Je te recommande petite Angèle Daniel balavoine ✌️✌️✌️
He is so beautiful
OMG Dereck I love you so much ! OMG... React to "Lucie", "Pour la femme veuve qui s'éveille", "Un Enfant Assis Attend la Pluie"...
Yes, Lucie is like the "sister song" of this one, I mean vocally, and musically, both songs exposes Daniel's beautiful voice and composing skills.
+1 for "Un Enfant Assis Attend la Pluie".
Incredible song
+1 for Un enfant assis entend la pluie
What a surprise ! Thank you for that reaction, Dereck. I didn't know that song at all but I really love it 😍 Daniel Balavoine is definitely magic ✨
Recommandé Balavoine/ Lucie
It s a song created by Daniel Balavoine himself (music and lyrics). Michel Berger became his best friend during the Musical Starmania (1978), entired composed by Michel. But all the Daniel's albums was composed and written by Daniel. All great albums. But the last (Sauver l'amour - 1985) was the biggest creation, modern music, and today it can be listen without any weathering. So many fantastic music to come after that, but life is not esthete.
Listen Dereck , JJ Goldman and Sirima " là-bas " , please ....
i listened it today
Yes ! And the video is nice too. Because Dereck needs a video to react to, as well.
This dong was written by Daniel Balavoine himself !
And Michel Berger wanted to meet him to sing in Starmania !!!
Michel Berger was another amazing songwriter who wrote all France Gall's songs.
Frissons garantis Balavoine 👌🔥Perfection❤ Bravo Dereck vous avez visez juste sur toute la ligne 👌
Balavoine: Listen to "dieu que c'est beau". More intense In the music and his voice.
Listen "partir avant les miens" Dereck... So sad and premonitory...
@JIMMY JIM je connais Angèle oui 😊 qd aux suggestions, peut-être que Dereck fait en priorité celles des inscrits sur patreon. Ne désespère pas 😁😉
@JIMMY JIM plateforme de soutien aux créateurs de contenu je pense
@JIMMY JIM En fait c'est une appli où tu paies 5 euros par mois ( resiliable à tout moment) où tu peux lui faire des propositions dont il tiendra compte. J'espère t'avoir éclairé. 🙂
@JIMMY JIM Cela m'étonnerait qu'on propose Annie Cordy. J'ai rien contre elle. Elle a fait une super carrière mais bon...😂
You MUST react to "Aimer est plus fort que d’être aimé"
Good idea !
Petit Homme Mort au Combat
Un enfant assis attend la pluie !!!
Michel Berger wanted to make this album a show and he will say a few days after Balavoine's death: “He had made a record which was absolutely formidable on the Berlin Wall. It was the story of two brothers who were each on one side of the wall. I had the project to do that in spectacle, with him besides". It is true that they could have made a musical out of this story and with the fall of the wall, pursue it until reunion in freedom! What a great collaboration it could have been!
Michel Berger voulait faire de cet album un spectacle et il dira quelques jours après la mort de Balavoine : «Il avait fait un disque qui était absolument formidable sur le mur de Berlin. C'était l'histoire de deux frères qui étaient chacun d'un côté du mur. Moi j'avais le projet de faire ça en spectacle, avec lui d'ailleurs. » C'est vrai qu'ils auraient pu en faire une comédie musicale de cette histoire et avec la chute du mur la poursuivre jusqu'aux retrouvailles dans la liberté ! Quelle belle collaboration c'eût pu être !
When he first started , late 70's he had long hair. When you see him with shorter hair, it's later in the 80s. ❤️ I love seeing your reaction Dereck, you cheer me up 😁
This song is telling the story of what was happening in Europe : the Cold War was a heartbreaking situation for thousands of people, separated from their families. And another very sad fact : Daniel Balavoine died in 1986, without seeing the fall of the Wall of Berlin.
My favorite song from Balavoine
Hi Derek i love yours videos, and i have a few suggestion :
- "Mistral Gagnant" by Renaud. Because of alcool (and many other things...) he do not have a good voice so during all his carreer he mainly focus on the lyrics instead of the melody . And this song written for his child is maybe the most beautiful french song ever. (There is also a cover made by a female artiste named: Coeur de Pirate wich is very good too)
- "Je l'aime à mourrir" by Francis Cabrel. Just know that this song is so good that Shakira decided to make a spanish cover of it.
- "Un coup de soleil" by Richard Cocciante. This is the best song to sing drunk after being dumped by your boyfriend/girlfriend.
- " Ma Benz" by NTM feat Lord kossity. LISTEN TO THEIR LIVE VERSION, their energy is truly amazing. NTM is one of the first rap bands in France and maybe the most iconic one. I know that you don't listen to rap song on this channel but trust me you won't regret it.
Thank you again for your videos.
Pépite méconnue à découvrir :
Noir désire : là bas
Petula Clark : la nuit n’en finit plus
Thank you, Dereck ! And now : "lettre à marie" or "me laisse pas m'en aller".
😂🤣 Bananas 👍👍👍
A very dramatic song and one of his earliest. To me, it sounds like German music from the Marlene Dietrich era. I love the last word: "Les hommes en vert ont... tires" (The men in green... shot). Very well-crafted song. He says this line earlier in the song, but stops short of voicing the "Shot" part. This shows his talent, his vision of songs as a mini-story with a social commentary weaved in. He never changed. He just evolved.
Watch "Pour la femme veuve qui s'eveille", and the heart-wrenching "Un enfant assis attend la pluie" (I challenge you not to get goose bumps with this one!)
Happy listening
oh yes he's incredible.
Yes it's probably the moment when michel berger discovered Daniel. It's with this song
Absolutely. 🙂
Il a déjà l' air tellement solide, Daniel, dans cette interprétation, tout en étant si gracieux... J' en ai des frissons 😢
More of Daniel Balavoine:
Dieu que c'est beau
Quand on arrive en ville (from Starmania)
Surprising song that I Never knew so thanks to allow us to (re)discover it . It remind me a little of the nightmare before Christmas ( tim burton vibes) not you?
You really need to discover this
Balav (No.) ONE! ...what else? :))
N.B.: In fact, the man who talks to his sweetheart who's waiting for him on the other side is simply telling her that he's dying under the bullets of the soldiers because he tried to join her on the other side of the wall. "The green men fired...."
Daniel Balavoine and Michel Berger have worked a lot together, not only on Starmania. They were both well known when they met Jean-Jacques Goldman and became friends. There's a picture of them which has been taken during the huge concert for Africa, at The Wembley Stadium on July 13th 1985. All the 3 were very concerned by poorness, hunger and lack of water. Each of them and together, they have made a lot to fight misery in France and in the world.
talking about marlene Dietriech who leave germany before the wall was build
Not a berger's song, it is his own voice, his words
Balavoine wrote it when he went to Berlin
He was saddly touched about the wall, the cold war
That s why he choosed to talk about it in this album (his 2nd album)
And it s by watching this live Michel Berger discoverd Balavoine and wanted him to join Staramania (a musical show)
écouter Grégory Lemarchal, une voix extraordinaire qui a notamment repris "tous les cris les sos" de Daniel Balavoine de façon magistrale
Merci dereck biensûr, mais merci aussi aux financeurs de patreon qui influencent et conseillent de manière extrêmement favorable cette chaine.
Listen his song "Dieu que c'est beau" ! =)
Recommandé Balavoine / aimer et plus fort que d’être aimé
"Lucie", "Un enfant attend la pluie" and "Frappe avec ta Tête" (Live version) please Dereck
Merci Dereck, Watch VIVRE OU SURVIVRE 🎶🤩😍🥳🎶🎊. de Daniel 🎶💗🎶 🖖🏻
You should try champagne from Jacques Higelin there is a marvelous clip done by an art design school
Hi ! It’s not a Michel Berger’s song but a Balavoine’s song. It was on his first album. ;)
Cette chanson est de daniel tiré fe son album sur le mur de berlin en 77
Song about the Berlin Wall
Recommandé Balavoine / je ne suis pas un héros
It's a Balavoine song, like all the others songs from his solo career.
Dereck, try je ne suis pas un héros. You will like it 😉
Dexys Midnight Runners - Geno 1980! énorme succès
Salut Derek je vous conseille "né en 17 à leidenstat" de JJGoldman. Avec cette question : comment j'aurais fait à leurs place ?
Il nous rend ... il nous rend ... Je sais même plus ...
Wow !!! This song is beautiful but this song is quite unknown in France !!! You're American, You don't speak French but you talk about a song only a few people heard. It's amazing !!! Nice reaction !!!
Totalement inconnue cette chanson, je confirme !
@@reynaldparisel3852 Totalement appréciée, je confirme écouter cette chanson régulièrement depuis que je l'ai découvert a mon adolescence dans les 90's... Qu'elle ne soit pas un "succès commercial" ne veut pas dire qu'elle ne soit pas connu, et encore moins RECONNUE par les "connaisseurs". Daniel était un grand compositeur de chansons, cette chanson fait partie de ces chefs d’œuvres.
Totalement inconnue pas tout à fait, elle est quand même passée à la télé et en radio à l'époque. Mais c'est en 77. Elle n'a pas vraiment retenue l'attention. Mais elle a malgré tout été passée, je me rappelle l'avoir entendue plusieurs fois en radio sur RTL ou Europe 1 et Fip aussi qui la passait (mdr! y avait que ça comme radios à l'époque et quelques autres). Mais c'est effectivement avec "Le chanteur" que Daniel Balavoine a vraiment explosé en France, car ça a vraiment été un très gros "tube".
@@reynaldparisel3852 Et pourtant c'est "la plus connue" de cet album. Mais il est vrai que dans une émission télé, Michel Berger avait mentionné ledit Album, et Balavoine lui-même avait fait une vanne sur le fait que y avait que Michel qui savait que cet album existait. Ce qui est dommage : tout l'album fonctionne comme un roman epistolaire. Les 2-3 premières chansons posent à merveille selon moi les deux personnages principaux, deux frères, Simon et Gunther, séparés par le mur. Pour un premier album, Balavoine avait déjà fait très fort.
@@67Daidalos Dans cet album, il y en a une que je trouve très impressionnante, c'est la lettre à Marie. Sinon, je partage votre point de vue, cet album était un très bel album et il aurait dû rencontrer le succès, ça aurait été mérité.
Please can you react to "Pour la femme veuve qui s'éveille" again Balavoine 🙏
Check out the Buckingham Nicks album, featuring Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham before joining Fleetwood Mac. It is so good and underrated. Highly recommended! Great reaction ! 🥰 I would also recommend watching Fleetwood Mac live. For example: The Chain (1982), Big Love (1997 The dance) or Silver Springs (1997 the Dance)!
Techniquement irréprochable !
Can you please react to "Plus près des étoiles" by Gold. Cheers!
Oui on a perdu gros dans les année 80. Un jour essai du Serge Gaingsbourg c'est totalement diffèrent.
Please react to Lucie from Balavoine
Instrumentation and tune really sends me to Kurt Weill's musicals (opéra de 4 sous, Happy end...)
This song is about the Berlin Wall, so sad to think he died before the wall “fell”...
I advise you 'La lettre à Marie' from him, a great song !
Epic song . Again . 💙
First 🇲🇽🇲🇽👋👋👋😷👌
Thank-you so much Dereck to let me discover this Balavoine song I just didn't know !
At first nobody wanted to support Balavoine songs, estimated too sad !!! Looking back, his first songs are just deep and touching!
For us Europeans, Berlin wall is an especially emotional subject, and I can't help remembering the excellent touching old black & white movie Lilly Marlène, staring this superb actress! and of course also the superb omnipresent eponym song Lilly Marlène evocating love during nazi regime!
Of course, I can't either help remembering Pink Floyd album
The Wall, especially the song
We don't need no education, evocating East-Berlin pupils during communist regime !
thank you for this smallness. this song didn’t really work and was only a highly regarded success. it was before the song "le chanteur"
Next reaction dimash song ( endless love jacki )
Lady marlene it s marlene dietrich
At that period his label wanted to fired him because all the album was about the Berlin Wall (separating east and ouest Germany). Too sad subject, too intelectual. Finaly, a little bit later he realeased "j'aurais voulu être un artiste", much more catchy. And then it was the begining of his succes.
Greeting from France
Keep on Dereck !
derek, i'm french. Listen to Polnareff Please. Like the song "Love me " or " Le bal des Laze' (for this one i can translate you the song)
Je préfère la version de l'album quand même.
Pareil. Mais Dereck a besoin d'un clip pour réagir, soit un clip officiel soit un concert ou émission TV. C'est parfois décevant comme pour Lara Fabian récemment.
Listen to
"comme un aigle Michel vedette"
ruclips.net/video/Eb2UECN1WXQ/видео.html
mdr
You must react too to "Les nuits sans soleil" from Ivanov, "Aviateur" from Véronique Jannot and « Ville de Lumière" from Gold.
Aviateur by Veronique Jannot, yes ! I totally approve 👍
totally agree
Try something totally different:
Heroes del Silencio: Entre dos tierras 🔥😍
for the french " chançon " the most important is the meaning and the beauty of the texte , the music come after , like a box for a jewel .. you should at least put subtitles in english and explain the meaning of the song , balavoine was one of our great singers , he was living in "berlin" when he was a youg kid , and this song speek about one man who tries to escape and get kill by the guards and German people from the west like Marlene dietrish, who did not know how hard life was on the east side..
listened to French chançons without understanding French is like talking about a pizza without tasting it , sorry if my comment look hard , you look nice and it's great to be interested in European music but you have to put subtitles ..
Pierre Bachelet plz .
I NEVER listen this song
Effectivement ! Moi pareil !
What do you mean ? That you HAVE never listen to this song or you AVOID listening to this song ?
Hmm.. bof.
Autant j'aime la voix de Balavoine plus mur, autant sa voix de crécelle de jeune homme m'insupporte.
Et cette chanson n'est vraiment pas sa meilleure, mais Dereck se fie à ce que certains lui suggèrent.
Peut-être mais les paroles sont pures.
@@amels4101 Les paroles sont pures, mais l'instrumentation est aussi puissante (l'accordéon cela change de synthétiseurs et il a un bon orchestre pour l'accompagner) et la voix l'est aussi. L'explosion finale (7:47 et 7:54) est un apogée, qui donne sa profondeur et son sens musical à la chanson. Il est vrai que la voix de Balavoine a mué, il le dit lui-même en 195 quand il confie qu'il ne chante plus "SOS d'un terrain en détresse" comme avant. Il aurait été intéressant de suivre l'évolution de sa voix (il fumait...). Celle d'Hallyday a beaucoup changé et s'ils avaient fait un album ensemble comme ils l'avaient envisagé, ils auraient chanté ensemble et cela aurait été très beau...
Hi Dereck! Thanks for your react on Daniel Balavoine. This song is the one that is known to him in the 70's despite a success of esteem and and which will allow him to be noticed after a TV appearance to be engaged on the musical Starmania.
It's one of his songs from that decade that I like and remember because in the documentaries about him that appear on TV, it comes back often.
It's taken from a concept-album "Les Aventures De Simon Et Gunther...". The theme of the title is the failed escape and destruction of the dream of leaving the eastern part of Berlin.
But I prefer the album version than this one!
For your next react, I recommend you "Dieu Que C'Est Beau" (1984) or "Aimer Est Plus Fort Que D'Etre Aimé" (1985), songs more synthpop wave and very 80's and why not Pour La Femme Veuve Qui S'Eveille (1983), an "experimental" song, a kind of "World" music.
Thanks for your amazing work our Frenchie American dude. 👍🇫🇷
