One of the most iconic french song ever !Huge european hit .Next please react to the incredible masterpiece :"Gigi l Amoroso " a huge international hit by Dalida
Dereck, I have just read the Wikipedia entry for Dalida. Goodness me, I have rarely read anything more tragic, right from when she was a child. Thank you so much for introducing me to this beautiful lady and her music. I read that in 1988, the year after her death, she was voted the second most influential French person - behind General De Gaulle. Rest in peace Dalida, especially as you had so little of it during your life.
When I grew up in the sixties we explored ALL avenues of music. Today, people know virtually nothing outside what they are fed. Well done for exploring these styles. It makes life so fulfilling and is never-ending.
For many of us that lived out of France i remember she was considered the biggest Diva and showwoman of her era.Really huge name.Very seductive and exceptional personality.Remember my parents were mentioning DALIDA and JOE DASSIN as the top names from France.
Thanx. The Spanish rendition is my fav since i discovered it in 2009. A little anecdote about the song. When the lyricist was about to present the song to Dali, he hesitated saying " I have a song for you, but I believe it's not for you! " She laughed saying "I love it when people tell me that a song is not for me". So she asked him to present it to her and she was charmed and decided to record it.
She really knew a guy named Lucio he was younger much younger than Dalida, She got pregnant with him, but had an abortion on his demand and probably due to their age difference. Her private life despiste fame was a real tragedy all men she knew commited suicide as we already mentionned it in previous comments. She's still an Icon to this day !!!! ♥♥♥♥♥
Beautiful Dalida, not my favorite singer, but she as definitly a "thing", also first time hearing her in spanish, very interesting and she slays it as Dereck would say 😁😁
The writers of this song didn't know at first that Dalida lived a story with a young man .but ,certainly,this man wasn't 18years old.he was 23 years old and Dalida was 34.
Dalida is an entire music universe that deserve to be known. I recomand you to react at these songs: Je suis malade, Et puis c'est toi, Comme si tu etais la, Julien. These are one of the most greatest song that i ever heard.
Gracias Dereck por tu reaction y por haber hacernos descubrir la version espanola que yo no conocia! Esa cancion es auto-biografica, porque Dalida hubo una aventura con un hombre muy joven ! La edad legal en Francia es 18 anos, lo que significa que si el chico no tienne los 18 anos, esta considerado como un nino y la otra persona se hace colpable de "détournement de mineur"! (pienso que la ley es quasi la misma en Espana. No sé que dice la ley en California!) Su cancion es como una justificacion por haber una aventura con un hombre tan joven, mismo si tiene la edad legal! En Los labios de Dalida, la relation se hace una simple relacion de amor muy hermosa !
@@dicdicd1767 Le message s'adressait à Dereck qui maîtrise couramment l'espagnol pour lui dire entre autres que Dalida avait effectivement connu une aventure avec quelqu'un de plus jeune qu'elle.

And don't forget that in France, until 1974 , the majority was in 21 years old. The song is from 1975. So it was still iconoclastic for most of the people. We had a big scandal in Marseilles in 1968 " l'affaire Gabrielle Russier " : A teatcher (33 years old) had a love story with her student that was 18 years old. The teacher was condamned and committed suicide in her prison.
c'est une très belle chanson, je m'y retrouve car j'ai fréquenté une fille de 15 ans de plus que moi, et j'avais 18 piges à l'époque et bien entendu, ça me touche personnellement.
You might be interested in a UK Artist whose music isn't listened/reacted to a lot. The Artist is called Tony Christie and he had quite a few songs in the 70s. However, he had three big hits I Did What I Did for Maria (1971), Is This the Way to Amarillo (1971) & Avenue & Alleyways (1973). Out of the 3 Is This the Way to Amarillo was his biggest hit especially when it was revived in 2005 with the help of UK comedian Peter Kay where it reached number 1.
Hey ! You should listen to "Tout au Plus" by Dalida too, a magnificent song or even "Depuis qu'il vient chez nous" a song about bisexuality that was really innovative for the time!
In the true story, she was 34 and him 22. The 18 is an metaphorical idea that referred to the contrast between youth and maturity about the way of loving.
Let me tell you: Mina (Mazzini) is the mother of all the european singers. I could litterally name tens and tens of her songs and you probably know some ("Parole, parole, parole" covered by Dalida or "Il cielo in una stanza" from Scorsese's Goodfellas just to name a couple) but my suggestion for a first reaction would be "Insieme" (1970) while "Brava" (1965) could easily show you all her vocal skills.
Dalida kicked off 4 years prior to Mina. I am a big fan of Mina also but it is too much to call her a mother of all europen singers. Many of them are all good in their personal manner.
You must reach to Patty bravo, maybe "pazza idea" or "Pensiero stupendo". And I ask you also to do a double listen to the same song "Parole, parole" sing by Mina and Alberto Lupo and "Paroles, paroles" sing by Dalida and Alain Delon
Hello *Dereck,* ua-cam.com/video/xuwsZUumlsE/v-deo.html Here the French version with English subtitles. I don't understand why they didn't give you this link first (Blocked for your country maybe?). In France legal age is 18, not 21 as in the USA. I hope you'll react soon to *"Dalida - Gigi L`Amoroso 1975,"* my favorite by far. I find in this song something like the epitome of the Latin mom and wife; by turns playful, reassuring, and not hesitating to lie a little to get along; "Americans don't get it..." - In the song; *Gigi* went to the USA to seek glory, but he returned without a victory to his small village in Italy where he was born. She brings together all the inhabitants to talk about her *Gigi*, which all have happy memories, etc. (There's an English version by her, the lyrics, interpretation, and music are very close to the French version) I think it's the song where she embodied the most in her interpretation (personally, I find that her version of "I'm sick" was overplayed) and which, by rebound, finally embodies her, the better. *"He just turned 18"* ranks second on my podium. That's all for Dalida. Peace, folks.
@@SuperBozel Hello, Yes, I just came to answer to *Joel Gette* who has precise it to me (the song out year) on another comment. Thank You. Have a pleasant day/night.
The theme of this song is not sex, despite it can seem. It is the point of view of a 36 years old woman, with all the path of her 36 years in joy and sorrow behind her, who meets a 18 years old young man ("beautiful as a child, strong as a man", says in French). The woman, for this time, with nostalgia for her youth, accepts to be seduced by the young man and for a night she is again young and free. But the morning after the reality comes and she sees how the age makes things, and life, different for both of them and she leaves him go. She, an adult person with all the awarness of an adult opposed to the naivety and self-confidence of the young man's youth, knows she can't stay with the young man, but she's happy she had the opportunity to dream, and to be young again, for some hours. The theme is hence the comparison between attitudes toward life, and love, of a young man and an adult woman. I suggest you to find a good translation of the french text.
Pourquoi 18 ans c'est l'âge de la majorité en France superbe chanson devenue un classique en France. Il existe une version de Lara Fabian en live qui est pas mal aussi .
Bonsoir Olivier, La chanson est de 1975, et si mes souvenirs sont bons, c'est le président Giscard qui a ramené la majorité légale à 18 ans en 1976. Mais, peu importe, car c'étaient les années 70 (les années hippies, l'amour libre, etc.). Et, tant que personne ne se plaint, comme aujourd'hui, on laisse faire. Mais, en plus, un Français peut obtenir sa majorité à 16 ans si ses parents acceptent de l'émanciper. Passez une bonne semaine. The song is 1975, and if my memories are good, it was President Giscard who downed the age of legal majority at 18 (But no matter, cause it was the 70s, the hippie years, free love, etc.). And, as long as no one complains, like today, we let it happen. But moreover, a Frenchman can obtain his majority at 16 if his parents agree to emancipate him.

No the man didn't know. Only her brother and her aunt (or cousin I didn't remember well ) knew.
@@nimocash3535 yes, only her brother Bruno (professionally known as Orlando) and her cousin Rosi knew.
And it's important to know that actually the young man was 22 (not 18, as we can hear through the lyrics) and Dalida was 34.
Strong and deep lyrics ...thank you dereck 💙

Childhood memories ... She was like a real Barbie doll to me.
