Johnny Hallyday : Yarol Poupaud discusses his feelings after his burial in St Barth – Gala

Johnny Hallyday

This evening, TF1 broadcasts the show Johnny, all the music they love, recorded just a few days after the funeral of Johnny Hallyday on the island of Saint Barthelemy. Yarol Poupaud told the newspaper Le Parisien on this very moving time.

While the show built around the album We all have something of Johnny released on the 7th November last, had been decided more than 2 months, the question is asked for the artists to persevere or not in the project after the death of Johnny Hallyday on December 6, last. But the guitarist and a friend of Johnny Hallyday tells the newspaper Le Parisien : “We did it, as expected. We wanted to be more a concert film than a variety show. This is our way of making him hommageet to mourn. It was recorded the day after our return from Saint-Barthélemy.”

As the singer Slimane, Yarol Poupaud tells the story of a moment of emotion that viewers will be able to discover as of this evening on TF1 : “It was a very intense time, very important to us, because as for the concert of the Madeleine in Paris, all those who have made the last tour were there, musicians such as the technicians. It was very behind the scenes. Some of us worked with him since the 1970s, gave his guitars for years. Everyone was involved as if he was there. It was very moving to talk with all these guys, who have worked in the shade. They were devoted body and soul, they sacrificed their family life for the concert to be good, and Johnny gives it all. He knew it and he was very grateful. They also live in a huge grief. This show is a tribute also to all those people out of the shadows. “
