Julien Doré takes over Cuitas les bananas as a duo with Philippe Risoli

“Music is another passion of mine. Banana care is a song that I wrote the evening of the stopping of “Millionaire” in 1999 on TF1 . » In an interview he gave us in 2014 on our show “We only talk about that”, Philippe Risoli told us the story of this song released in 2001 and which earned him a lot of mockery.

“The bananas are cooked, the potatoes are cut into the back”he sang in the chorus to the sound of very joyful and catchy musical accompaniment. “I let myself get involved in something with very professional musicians but that was no longer the state of mind of the song”explained to us the man who was then coming out of ten years of success on the air of TF1 with the animation, in particular, of the game “The Right Price”.

“I have nothing to be ashamed of this song”

Philippe Risoli

The former host dreamed of recording an album and had the opportunity to do so in 2001. But without the hoped-for success. “I have nothing to be ashamed of this song. Technically, it is well done. People appreciated it but it was the job that killed mePhilippe Risoli assured us. Cook the bananas is a melancholic song that I will make you listen to one day in an acoustic version, it has nothing to do with the instrumental version. »

Among the 19 covers of his album Impostor, Julien Doré took over Philippe Risoli’s cult song in the same way as As long as they are soft by Mylène Farmer, by All the women in your life L5 or even Hi… Lolita by Alizée which he revisited in 2007 in “New Star”. On Friday, he published a short video on social networks where he covers, acoustically, Banana care in duo with the host, quietly seated, coffee in hand. “The Internet was asking for this feat with boss Philippe Risoli, here it is”wrote the singer.
