“I hope it touches you as much as it touched me”
What did he sing for the Pope? “Knowing how to love” by Florent Pagny, which he himself composed in 1997. “ This interpretation is now available on all platforms. I hope it touches you as much as it touched me » underlines Pascal Obispo, who therefore takes up the words of love and sharing usually sung by his friend Florent Pagny. “ But knowing how to give / Give without taking back / Do nothing but learn / Learn to love / Love without waiting / Love to take everything / Learn to smile / Just for the gesture / Without wanting the rest / And learn to live / And ‘go away » whispers the artist on two versions: one on the piano and the other with an orchestra. On a dedicated site, Pascal Obispo is selling a vinyl containing the two rereadings, for a good cause.
