He melted hearts thirty-five years ago… yet he remained icy, spending peaceful days far from the fervor, in a small house on the edge of a lake, in Canada. Yes, while the fever Helen climbing in France, Roch Voisine kept a cool head. How?
“I had a very normal life. After concerts, I went home. And then I was 26, I didn’t come out of a boy band at 15!” he puts it into perspective in the pages of Parisian.
The mirror to the larks
Moreover, at the same time, the singer did four years of university “to become a physiotherapist”. Thanks to that, “success didn’t consume me. My previous life became a parallel life, it protected me. And then I lived in Quebec. There, the culture is to leave people alone”.
No need to go and hang around on the sand to console him for Helen’s departure. “She wasn’t even my girlfriend, Helen!” he defends himself.
In fact, the singer was inspired by a friend’s girlfriend to write his song. And he is a little annoyed to have been reduced to this hit for years, while he has “written magnificent things that have gone completely unnoticed or almost.”
That being said, if the star named his tour Helen 35which will take him to France from March to April 2025, is that he still has his “feet in the water” a little. In any case, the man who was also a consultant for the Vancouver Olympic Games in 2010 for France Télévisions is delighted to be back in France, “where he did a hundred concerts a year here” at the time.
“It’s a bit like home. I have my little habits there, my good restaurant addresses in each city. When I’m on tour, eating is the only thing I have a bit of time for!” he confides.
So welcome back and enjoy your meal Roch Voisine!
