It’s a day that the Corsicans will not soon forget. For the first timethe inhabitants of the island of beauty had the opportunity to welcome the pope. This December 15, the Sovereign Pontiff went to Ajaccio on the occasion of a congress on popular piety in the Mediterranean. Early in the morning, Pope Francis was greeted with applause residents while he was on board his popemobile. After a speech on the sidelines of the conference, the Holy Father headed towards the Notre-Dame de l’Assomption Cathedral for the Angelus prayer. On this occasion, multiple artists had the immense opportunity to sing opposite him. This is the case ofAlizéeof Patrick Flowers or even Pascal Obispo.
The interpreter of Lucie has, on this occasion, sang Florent Pagny’s hit Know how to love but which he himself wrote. A very good performance which was also a way to pay tribute to your friend. On his social networks, the almost 60-year-old artist (he will celebrate his birthday on January 8, editor’s note) spoke about this meeting that he won’t soon forget. This October 17, facing the camera, he spoke on his Instagram account visibly still touched by this great experience.
“Hello everyone, I have just arrived from Corsica where I had the privilege and the immense honor to sing in Ajaccio for the arrival of Pope Francis. Experience full of emotion and a lot of pride and then unique too. It only happens once in a lifetime” declared Jenifer’s ex.

Still on his Instagram account, Sean’s dad revealed that the new version of this title is now available on all platforms. “I hope it touches you as much as it touched me” he added. Then, a great announcement for his fans: “I had a little idea, to make a vinyl, a 45 rpm in the colors of the poster which announced the arrival of Pope Francis ; turquoise blue. It will include Knowing how to love in piano version and in orchestral version too“. Already in pre-order until January 6, the coach of “The Voice” specifies that this project is important to him”particularly at heart because all profits will be donated to the diocese of Ajaccio to support their actions“.
As a reminder, on occasion, of their presence on stage, the artists present received a nice present from the Pope Francis. All were offered a gray rosary. A memory that they will undoubtedly keep forever, proud to have been able to participate in this historic moment.
