Rémi without family ...

Child from the DDASS (modern orphanage) in France, sentenced in 1976 to 6 months in prison for minor crimes, Jean Luc Lahaye will be in turn adjuster, driver and bodyguard of Zizi Jeanmaire and finally bartender before a certain Dalida notices him and him rent a small apartment on the top floor of his residence.
 
 His first album "Pascal et Cécile" was released in 1979 without much success.
 
 Other titles will follow, too, without success being there.
 
 It was in 1982 that things accelerated. "Woman I love" hits the shelves and this time, the title hits home.
 
 Followed in 1984 by "Papa chanteur" which will remain 30 weeks in the French Top 50.
 
 In 1985, his autobiographical book "One Hundred Families" became a bestseller.
 
 1986 and 1987 are the years of consecration with sold out concerts in all the legendary halls of the capital.
 
 His fourth album "En vol" unfortunately will fail and the years that follow will not allow him to raise the bar. As a result a decline that the artist can never reverse.

Which will not prevent him from continuing the adventure in the years and decades that follow.
 
 To discover or rediscover...

Tracks :

1979 ... the surreal beginnings of a young boy who will become one of the biggest stars of the 1980s on the French side

1980 ... change of decade and change of style. A salutary change that will quickly bear fruit ...

1982 ... then comes THIS title. A HUGE Single that will reveal him and change its destiny forever. Surely one of the biggest Dance hits of the 80s and the end of the 20th century on the French side

1983 ... a little megalo delirium. Lahaye pure juice. But with him, everything is possible !

1983 ... a track in the same vein as 'Femme que j'aime' but which cannot compete with such a musical monument...

1984 ... a first draft of an Intimist song. Field in which he will soon be excelling ...

1984 ... an exceptional year which saw him produce no less than 3 top hits. Undeniably his best vintage !

1984 ... a year which ends in apotheosis with this title which will remain as one of its best classified at the level of Charts

1985 ... I told you he was going to excel in the Intimist mode. The proof ! A title that plays deeply in the register of emotion and that perfectly reaches its target. Surely one of his most emblematic titles ...

1986 ... and what about that one ! A WONDERFUL finesse and softness that magically suspends time

1986 ... we can't stop him ! It is an uninterrupted succession of tender songs of very very large caliber. One of the Masters in the matter, there's no photo !

1987..new big year with 2 top hits including this hymn to diversity and tolerance. 30 years later, this song would still be as much news ...

1987 ... new top hit with this title which serves as credits for his TV program Lahaye d'Honneur and which will surely remain as one of his best titles

1987 ... back in the Intimist register with a new WONDER of which he has the secret. He really has an extraordinary talent for interpreting this kind of songs, it's undeniable !

1988 ... one of his rare duets. And not necessarily any ! With hindsight, images which now belong to the past, literally as well as figuratively ...

1989 ... another wonderful sweet break, one more ! The years go by and he still excels as much in this area !

1991...change of decade and still here. But the 90s will prove to be much more complicated to manage than expected...

1993 ... of Jean Luc Lahaye pure juice. It's light and airy and it eats no bread ... Long gone is the time of Maitresse Maitresse...

1994...an adventure that will continue but the singer's talent can no longer bridge the gap that now separates him from the competition...

1994...especially since this new opus is far from the expectations of young audiences. This new opus is a bold bet to say the least...

1994...and yet we cannot say that there is a lack of quality in his new titles. But it is above all the aim of the album which questions...

1997...we find him 3 years later in a certain form. But the musical interlude of the previous album seriously weighed down his career, it is clear...

1997...it will be extremely difficult for him to return to the race in these conditions, almost impossible unfortunately...

1997...in any case that doesn't discourage him in any way and he says to himself that it might be worth continuing the adventure a little more...

2004...we lost sight of him for almost 7 years but here he is again. A return which will show that he has lost none of his talent, it is clear...

2004...unfortunately the 90s did not help keep him afloat enough. He will therefore have to redouble his efforts to try to return to the surface...

2004...of course he will do everything he can to try to get back into the race but it is his private life which will put an almost definitive end to all his hopes...

2004...a private life which will turn into a disaster with serious problems with the justice system to come. This is what we call a huge waste...

2008...he will still try to continue his career somewhat despite all his legal setbacks. Setbacks that will only get worse with time...

2008...how did one of the most gifted artists of his generation get there ? As is often the case, a star system which blinds and makes artists think that the world is offered to them, literally and figuratively...

2008...on the artistic side he tries with this new opus to pay homage to key titles of the French musical scene and my goodness, in this area, he still ensures...

2008...an artist who had everything to do great things but whose demons partly destroyed everything positive he had been able to build. After a possible redemption is always possible...
