Details: Product Description Pagny has spent much of the early part of 1998 at #1 on both the French album and singles charts (the latter with this record's title track, which has now sold 1.2 units worldwide). Other awards in Pagny's career include the 1996 World Music Award for Best-Selling French album, Bienvenue Chez Moi, which sold 1.5 million records internationally. Savoir Aimer is a ballads collection featuring collaborations with Jean-Jacques Goldman, Zazie, Peter Kingsbury and others. Amazon.ca After a triumphant debut ("Anything" in 1987), Florent Pagny seemed to have gotten a little lost in the troubled waters of show biz, especially with his second album. His big comeback therefore took place in 1996, when the singer/actor recorded a version very faithful to the original of Lucio Dalla's "Caruso". The public has obviously not forgotten him. This trend was confirmed at the end of 1997 with the release of this album, Knowing how to love, while France saw the great return of singers with voices, of which Pagny became the masculine symbol and Céline Dion the feminine. The disc will be certified diamond the following year, after more than 1 million copies sold. It must be said that Florent left it up to others to write tailor-made songs for him. For the first time, he does not sign any title. Pascal Obispo and Lionel Florence are the authors of the first single "Savoiraimer", while Zazie, Veneruso, Golemanas, Goldman, Guirao and Mengo put their talent at the service of the golden voice by delivering "Chanter", "Dors" , "Die with your eyes open" or "From one love to another". Now essential, these songs have even been taken over by the Enfoirés. Supreme privilege for this ex-fan of Luis Mariano. --J.-PP and Thierry Cadet
