Details: Product Description France. Amazon.ca Julien Clerc, as we know, loves women and they give it back to him. But for now, only one holds all his attention. The one he went to get is one of the most coveted: Carla Bruni. The six texts signed by the former Italian top model (“Also alive”, “Be satisfied with here below”, “We would be alone in the world”…) create the surprise. The beauty fades gently by offering one of the most secret artists of show biz, emotions of women. It is the part of femininity of the man which is expressed here through fragile confidences ("If I were her"). But this eighteenth album is above all placed under the sign of encounters. Those with the American Umberto Gatica (Mariah Carey, Céline Dion, Michael Jackson) and with a young man of twenty-three, Khalil (the brother of Assia, "A few words in your name") who is already illustrated in the world of soul, rhythm'n blues and hip-hop. We also find the long-time accomplices: Etienne Roda-Gil ("Va-t'en de moi") and David McNeil ("You are gone"). An invitation to travel, enriched with sensual ("I forget"), sweet ("Va-t'en de moi") and melancholy ("L'Horizon chimère") melodies. Some fantasies, musical touches imprinted with funk and groove ("Also alive"), nicely complete the picture. If I were it has a real climatic force and is not far from being one of Julien Clerc's best albums. --Valerie Dupouy
