billythebrit Posted June 2, 2008 at 07:53 PM Posted June 2, 2008 at 07:53 PM What do you think of him? I have never seen such a talent. Also, if there are any French fans out there, what was the name of the Jacques Brel song he sang? It was INCREDIBLE. Quote
tonybower Posted June 2, 2008 at 08:32 PM Posted June 2, 2008 at 08:32 PM He was really good, I thought. Rather funny and a very versatile voice! I might even go to see him in Paris in December.I'm not sure about the Jacques Brel song, but when he sang Mon Dieu by Edith Piaf, I thought he was great. That's one of my favourite Piaf songs. i would like to know the name of the Mylene Farmer song he performed as part of the karaoke. I recognised all the songs as being hits in France but if it ain't Celine I'm just not interested enough to listen out for artist names or song titles!

Céline's Blues Posted June 2, 2008 at 09:12 PM Posted June 2, 2008 at 09:12 PM (edited) It was "Rever" by Mylene. LOL He did a great job. Here him doing Sous Le Vent:http://youtube.com/watch?v=Mmd76bABOnc Edited June 2, 2008 at 09:15 PM by Céline's Blues Quote http://i.imgur.com/dmreJ.jpg
asiii m Posted June 2, 2008 at 09:16 PM Posted June 2, 2008 at 09:16 PM Mylene's song performed by Gregorio is called "Rever" (to dream), provided that he performed the same songs each evening, as I've only seen the show on Wednesday, the 21st. Yes, he's really talented and he even looks pretty at least that's what I think I couldn't realise how talentad he was in imitating voices until I heard him imitate Mylene, as I didn't know very well the other songs, but when he began to sang "Crever" (the parody of "Rever") I had a shock...it sounded exactly as if it had beenMylene's voice (and note that I'm a big listener of her). As about the other songs in his show, I remember I absolutely loved one of the French ones, it was smt that goes with "les pauvres d'Amsterdam" or smt like this, isn't it? It if happens to recognize the song, please let me know the title and the name of the artist Quote Some people have everything - they have nothing.May 21st, 2008 - Paris, Bercy & November 22nd, 2013 - Antwerpen, Sportpaleis
tonybower Posted June 2, 2008 at 09:18 PM Posted June 2, 2008 at 09:18 PM That was the Jacques Brel song I think... but don't know the title... just remember him singing about prostitutes in Amsterdam...

Shaun Posted June 2, 2008 at 10:05 PM Posted June 2, 2008 at 10:05 PM Yes I was very impressed with Michael when I saw the last show in Bercy. After the snore fest that was the support act in the UK I admit I wasnt expecting much of the support in Paris, but yes, this guy was very very good at what he did and more importantly warmed up the crowd very well for Celine.

Davey84 Posted June 3, 2008 at 09:37 AM Posted June 3, 2008 at 09:37 AM I think he was really brilliant! although the Yesterday song was toooo long and became boring IMO he really sounded like the people he did! and I thought it was a bit creepy hearing him sing Piaf, when I visited her grave earlier that morning He did the moves of Brel exactly the same! and he sounded like him too! the song Amsterdam is about sailors in Amsterdam, and well their mischieves... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6rvMZnWKZc (with english subtitles ) Isabelle Boulay also sang this song... but I couldn't find a utube link Here's the song in Dutch, by the famous (here lol) Dutch duo Acda en de Munnik Quote http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v75/daveyh84/incognito198701_zpsaaootxh1.jpgRick, ik hou van jou voor altijd!A New Day... has come 28/29 April & 2/3 May 07Antwerpen 13 et 14 mai,Paris 24 et 25 mai, Amsterdam 2 juinet Arras 7 juillet Chances Taken!!!How Do You Keep The Music Playing? - Celine Opening Night March 15th, March 16th
zanif Posted June 3, 2008 at 06:37 PM Posted June 3, 2008 at 06:37 PM Omg, he's amazing. I cannot believe I never heard of this guy before. I'm still searching at youtube for the karoake medley he did at Bercy, but can't seem to find any, except for the Mylene's song. His version of Mika's Love Today ain't that bad either. Quote
