The fans will be able to rejoice: they and they have been demanding for ages that the recording of the concert given at the end of 2003 by Johnny Hallyday be marketed, at the end of his tour "Closer to you".
This will be done on December 11, decided Universal, which affirms thus “to repair an injustice”… which it had itself committed.
The firm at the time had in fact decided to market the Parc des Princes tour, recorded in June 2003. Then argued that the two tours could not be released at the same time, because they were too close in time and musically.
During this concert, Johnny Hallyday performed his great hits such as
Que je t'aime
,
Gabrielle
,
Marie
,
La Musique que J'aime
as well as a new from 1977,
Le cœur en deux
.

National petition
This decision had provoked the ire of the fans, who had organized a national petition, where they and they explained why this concert seemed so exceptional to them.
According to the text, “this is not a resounding spectacle with great effects as it is now with stadium shows, but the emotion and the warmth that we felt there was more than remarkable.
The quality of the performance was also way above what we had heard for a long time.
"
Today is circulating another petition asking for a "commemorative plaque with a photo of him on the Bercy stage" to be affixed, arguing that Johnny has performed more than 100 times at Bercy where he has gathered more than a million spectators.
