Result ? “I am here”, an ode to resilience and self-love, already touches the heart of her fans who had just seen her again in the book Pagny by Ael. “Never let go. Florent is the epitome of the fact that we can continue and that we must continue to find strength somewhere.” His secret to success? “Perhaps always being in tune with what touches me. To always be connected to what, personally, touches me deeply. And deliver it with the same transparency, in fact.”
Starting with the title “Hypersensitive” which sounds like you, right?
“Yes, indeed, it’s me. Or all those who protect themselves from being hypersensitive by understanding that it’s not so easy to be so. But one day, you have to give up on that thing and say to yourself: I don’t care, I’m vulnerable, I’m vulnerable. It’s like that, it can’t be a problem. It must be an asset.

“I am there” also seems to evoke, on several occasions (“I am from you”, “A flower in the mouth”, etc.), your dad…
“It’s funny that you have this impression that I am an open letter to my father. But, in reality, the luck that I am is that I have already been able to talk to my father in my whole life. And that’s This is why it allowed me to free my speech so that women, young women or young men who have not been able to free their speech can find in my songs an open letter to one or another. other of their parents In fact, I didn’t write. ‘A flower in the mouth’ for my dad. I wrote it for all the women who have not yet dared to speak to their dad, their mom or whoever. the manual for being a perfect parent. Just like I don’t have it either And who carried around pains and problems and transferred them to their children without realizing it. an open letter like this, like her is not filled with any rancor or bitterness, it allows anyone who has not yet had the opportunity to find the words to say things to find in this song a way to do so.”
“Sometimes, without realizing it, we transfer our pots and pans to our children”
A song that may strike more than one person by identifying with this piece.
“One in two women, one in two men have experienced this in the eyes of their father or mother. Dads are not the culprits, and certainly not mine. But sometimes our problems, our pains, those that the we transfer to our children without realizing it, create wounds that cement insecurities which, over time, manifest themselves in repeated pain. This song is really much more of a letter offered to all women. who will want to say something to their father whom they have not yet had the opportunity to say. As for “I am from you”, the same. Here too, any child thanks their parent for the life you gave me, well beyond everything that may have been our journey, I owe it to you. If I am what I am, I owe it to you.”
You also sing “Wake me up when the world is better”, a tackle the news?
“Yes, in a way. It’s a carnal parenthesis in this era where what we have left is ultimately beauty and love. It’s a way of continuing to seek it, to find it and to taste it in one way or another, by ‘coiling’ in our first circle That’s it, Wake me up, what is it? Let’s stay in bed, it’ll be better for now. at the same time, let’s find beauty inside this first circle. But it is certain that today’s world challenges me. It upsets me and, at the same time, I am a woman who has confidence in life and in people. I remain a positive. Perhaps imbued with a little more wisdom and maturity today. I am not a stunned positive, but proactive. I say to myself, what if I tried to embody the world that I want. myself, if I tried to be everything I want to be, starting with myself and spreading it to everyone around me, maybe there’s a small chance that everything will be better if we do all that.”
On this album, we no longer count the collaborations. But your dream would be to do one with Celine Dion? So she’s not your rival?
“No, I’m not in competition with her at all! I think it was just the product of a lot of media hype… But, in reality, there is immense respect. It would be a dream for me, of course , to sing with her one day it would be wonderful! She’s the pioneer and I also salute her fight against illness. But in terms of the collaborations on the album, on the other hand, it’s the whole young generation that I love. accompanies. From Slimane to Vianney, via Renaud Rebillaud Vitaa and the Selah brothers.”

You quote Slimane, today in turmoil, how are you coping with this?
“I concentrate above all on music. I met a boy, him and the Selah brothers (the Franco-Israelis Meir and Yaakov Selah, Editor’s note) who are his musical home, with whom I created a magnificent world . And I prefer to look at it from that space. I created something magnificent with him and I focus on that.
His opinion on Mentissa, Eurovision candidate for Belgium
“So I, I love Mentissa, introduces us to Lara Fabian, who finished 4th at Eurovision 1988 under the colors of Luxembourg with “Croire”. I find it luminous, unique, touching, a fabric of voices like few others. She has absolute integrity in her way of being. I deeply love this artist, I think she will go a long way.” And the 54-year-old singer does not forget her native country in which she will open an academy. “Not necessarily only in Belgium, nor in the same place each time, but there will be a space reserved for this school which will be a presentation in the form of a seminar which will last 3-4 days, several times during the year.“Objective of this seminar in his presence?”Offer for 4 days an experience, a trip to these people who will want to be there with us. The idea will be to use singing as a reading key to unlock certain obstacles. To push certain limits and, who knows, find yourself a little more serene, a little more peaceful within yourself.”
