Loving motivates him and even dares a duet with Luana Santonino, the young woman who shares his life.

"That my audience sees me diminished, I don't want that"
It is not the desire to love that is lacking in this pillar of French variety, but health.
"Currently, I do not feel the physical possibility of being able to sing on a stage. That my public sees me diminished, I do not wish it. I prefer that they have a memory of me when I was rather not too bad “, he confides.
