A cover album to revive a career? Not for Julien Doré! While he has been at the top for more than 10 years, the singer decided to take a little break by delivering “Imposteur”, composed of rereadings of hits from L5, Mylène Farmer, Axelle Red, Dalida and Kendji Girac. “ For 17 years, I’ve been enjoying what I’m trying to do. (…) Over the last 10 years, I began to understand a little how lucky I was to make Music. (…) The notion of fun is much more present in my head when I do things than the notion of fear of risk » assures the star of French song in an interview with Purecharts. Julien Doré also takes this taste for risk by covering the delirious “Cuitas les bananas” or “Ah les crocodiles”, but also by sharing the microphone with Sharon Stone or Francis Cabrel.

“I am happy”
If this project is surprising, it fully seduces the public. After announcing 10,000 pre-orders in a few weeks, Julien Doré logically enters number one in the Top Albums this week. Outclassing “Songs of a Lost World” by The Cure, the singer very precisely sold 32,528 copies of his project “Imposter”. It therefore marks a more successful start than with its previous disc “Aimée”, which entered number one in sales in the summer of 2020, in the middle of Covid, with nearly 29,000 sales. In 2016, “&” also entered number one with 43,100 copies. There is no doubt that his “Imposter” will be one of the big bestsellers of the end of the year!
« I am so happy with these songs to bring a little smile, lightness, and tenderness in this time which is so stupid and so violent. » comments Julien Doré regarding the great reception reserved for the record. The lights are therefore green for the musician who will embark on a major Zénith tour in 2025, for which he has already sold more than 250,000 tickets. He will also be one of the headliners at festivals next summer including Musilac, La Nuit de l’Erdre and Pause Guitare in Albi.
