Michel Sardou
Michel Sardou (born
January 26,
1947) is a
French singer.He was born in
Paris, the son of
Fernand Sardou and Jackie Rollin (
Jackie Sardou). Contrary to claims common towards the beginning of his career, he is not the grandson of the
dramatist Victorien Sardou. However, he is the father of the French novelist
Romain Sardou.He is known not only for his love songs ("La Maladie d'Amour"), but also for songs dealing with various social and political issues, such as the rights of women in
Islamic countries,
clerical celibacy,
colonialism and the
death penalty. Another sometimes controversial theme found in some of his songs ("Les Ricains," for example) is his respect and support for the culture and foreign policies of the United States. He has focused his full attention on his homeland, ignoring the prospect of an international audience, although his 1981 single "Les Lacs du Connemara" did manage to become a big international hit. A number of his hit songs were written in collaboration with
Jacques Revaux, a few others (most notably "En Chantant") with Italian singer
Toto Cutugno.
