This is political news that has received a lot of attention.
A few days ago, Michel Barnier's government was subject to censorship, forcing Emmanuel Macron to appoint a new prime minister. Known for his outspokenness, he is on the show 12.45 that Michel Sardou agreed to answer Nathalie Renoux's questions. He gave a very blunt opinion on the current situation in the country, explaining that, if he had to write a song to describe it, it would “wouldn’t be gentle”. And regarding the unprecedented political instability, Michel Sardou does not mince his words.
“Yes, finally it’s good for his face”,
he said.
Political disorder, the singer assures that, according to him, it is deserved. “We wanted that, but we’ve been like that since Julius Caesar,” he continued before adding: “If he returned to Gaul so easily, it was because the Gauls could not peck each other. So, what do we have today? We don't have Caesar…”. A usual frank talk for Michel Sardou and he does not hesitate to give a very blunt opinion. In recent weeks, the country has faced the dissolution decided by Emmanuel Macron, a new assembly divided into three blocs, without a majority, and the recent censorship of Michel Barnier's government.
Michel Sardou: “France today…”
In recent months, the country has faced unusual difficulties. “France today…, I preferred mine”, assures Michel Sardou before adding:
“As always, we always prefer our youth.”
However, for him, the expression “it was better before”
is not suitable for all situations.
“CThis is bullshit. It was our youth that was better before.” he continued afterwards. An unprecedented political situation that he never thought he would face one day. But could she be getting inspiration for new pieces? “But here… I'm a little lost, I don't know what I would write. Maybe I would like the messy side”he concluded.
This is not the first time that Michel Sardou has spoken transparently about the political situation in France. A few months ago, he said in particular: “I feel the French are a little lost. We don’t really know where we are going anymore.” For him, the leaders also suggest that the situation is doomed to failure. “Our leaders give the impression of navigating by sight. Whatever the political color of the president and the government, they are bound hand and foot,” he continued before adding:
“Many people think that we have changed times, even though we live on another planet”.
Michel Sardou: a singer with very cash words
When something bothers him, Michel Sardou makes it known openly. Last June, during the preview of his latest tour projected on the big screen, a spectator asked him to run in the next elections. Enough to greatly amuse the main person concerned who had first stated: “We all hate presidents, prime ministers are much funnier.” A speech that Michel Sardou, known for his polemical but honest speeches, concluded: “ Stop pissing off the French, that would be good.” This has the merit of being clear.
