This Sunday, the 7th January, France Gall died at 70 years of age died of cancer. For the newspaper, The Progress, the specialist of the French song Melody TV, Jean-Pierre Pasqualini, returns on a personality discreet and don’t like the spotlight.

France Gall has always been modest. In the tragedies, like the death of Michel Berger, his companion and father of her children, or of his daughter, Pauline, in her breast cancer in 1993, and the disease in recent years but also in good fortune, as her partner for 20 years with Bruck Dawit, sound engineer and arranger for american with whom she worked on her last album in 1996 and on the musical Resists.France Gall died in his arms, this 7th day of January.

For the newspaper, The Progress, Jean-Pierre Pasqualini, a specialist in the French song on Melody TV back on a personality down-to-earth :“It was elegant, has done everything possible to hide the illness of his daughter, and it worked well because when she left in 1997, everyone was a little stunned…And also, for herself, she did everything to hide his cancer. Already in 1993. Nothing was too much filtered these last few months. I didn’t know that his cancer had recurred. She had the elegance to be very discreet, and elsewhere, for ” Resists “, she did not want to put themselves forward, or as in the ” Starmania “, she had not wanted the leading role (…) She didn’t like the evenings people, she preferred going to the Sacem. She didn’t like the scene anyway”

If France Gall, who has just died from cancer, that might be a heartfelt homage as important as for Johnny Hallyday, the journalist refutes : “She can’t have him, because Johnny himself has played the game of the people. It was all the time seen everywhere and followed all his life. It was followed day after day. France Gall, she was discreet. This is not a question of quality. She has lived a more tranquil life and she dies a little more quiet “
