Pascal Obispo makes a big announcement about his career and takes everyone by surprise: “Maybe my last…”

Few can boast of a career as long and successful as that of Pascal Obispo. At 59 years old today, the artist from (Dordogne) has crossed the ages with as much success as ever and on November 15, he will release his latest and fifteenth studio album, The archipelago of aftereffects. In this new opus, the artist who addressed this health concern which could have had serious consequences for him recently, has concocted an album with numerous collaborations. From Élodie Frégé to Anne Sila via Zazie and Nolwenn Leroy, the singer can count on the presence of many talented artists at his side.

Everything is going well on Pascal Obispo's side, but obviously, the former husband of Isabelle Funaro, with whom he had a son named Sean, does not necessarily want to extend his career for years. Unlike Michel Sardou or Charles Aznavour, he sees himself ending his career soon and perhaps even earlier than expected. “This may be my last album. This will be my last year before retirement. So you have to take advantage of it.”he says during an interview with the magazine Ciné Télé Revue. A little sentence which should cause a lot of talk among the many fans of the man who was forced to cancel a series of concerts for medical reasons last summer.

Pascal Obispo soon to retire?

Obviously determined not to make things last, Pascal Obispo has a well-known example in mind which seems to inspire him in his choice. Everyone retires at some pointso it's going to have to happen. I don't see myself in bad shape, limping on stage. You have to know how to decide to leave at some point. I have this moment in mind, as Jean-Jacques Goldman also had it”he tells our colleagues, before continuing: Before music, there is life. And life is the most important thing. And apart from music, I have painting, literature, writing. There are plenty of things to do in the second half of life…”

Revelations that are astonishing to say the least from Pascal Obispo, whose longevity in the musical world commands respect, but who seems ready to turn the page soon.
