Love Generation a success that no one believed in
When Star Academy launched in 2001, it was the hit Run, Baby, Run which was chosen as the credits, replaced from season 5 by the Love Generation by Bob Sinclar. It was in the Legend podcast, hosted by Guillaume Pley and broadcast on YouTube, that the famous DJ returned to the success of his hit… which no one believed in in the electro world! “He didn’t believe it at all! On the vinyl there are 7 minutes of acoustic guitar with a Jamaican singer… the guys thought I was crazy” says Bob.

“I don’t know what I’m going to do with it, I’m playing it to David Guetta, Joachim Garraud… all my friends were telling me ‘but you can’t take that out! It’s not a club song! Who’s going to dance to that?’ ” remembers the French DJ. Far from being influenced, Bob Sinclar persists”I tell them ‘but when you’ve played three or four electro songs, when you’ve given your masculine energy, when you’re naughty, we want a little love afterwards’” he explains.
