Yes he's the french Elvis. He was the greatest idol in France from 1960 until his death in 2017.

That's true ! I confirm. His death was a big event with more hundred thousend people in paris, bikers and many artist came for his funerals... like for no ohther artists since 40 years before...The French president came to the church celebrate his funerals too.. a very big moment for the country ! You may compare with the Micheal Jackson's death, really huge and sad event !

Amazing voice !! The best !!

super vidéo de JOHNNY mon idole pour toujours

When Johnny sang, he lived the song, he embodied it. That's why he was sweating so much. Quand Johnny chantait, il vivait la chanson, il l'incarnait. C'est pour ça qu'il transpirait autant.

He Was Magnifique🎉

In fact this song is a very very old traditionnal song with no author, which dates from the 19th century or maybe before, that's why there are so many versions. It was recorded at least 300 times by differents artists. The female version is that of a woman who is confined in a brothel.

😂😂😂je vous adore !!😂❤ carmen Bordeaux France

Johnny Hallyday's version is inspired by that of the group The Animals (big success of 1964). Moving away from the original story, this one evokes the incarceration of a young man on whom the doors of a prison close.

Johnny was the French Elvis who developed a touch of Springsteen in the late 80s when his voice started to give its full potential. He gave spectacular covers of two of my favourite Michel Berger songs: Diego and Aimer Vivre. Check out his live performances from the late 90s, especially the 2000 concert under the Eiffel Tower.

He was not the french Elvis, he was Johnny Hallyday.

Tres bien Merci pour ca.

Bien sur qu’on connait Pat Ewing. Avec mes potes, on suivait la NBA en France deja à l'époque de Michael Jordan

Have you heard of THE HOUSE ON CLIFF? Their cover of this amazing song is a MASTERPIECE🤯🔥🤘

You must be react to « ma gueule » Of johnny hallyday live zénith 84, Johnny is always better in live 😉

Pénitencier means a prison, which is strangely called "the house of the rising sun", that's because in the old American version it was not about a prison but a brothel !

👍👍😊😊🇫🇷🇫🇷🎸🎸

as you can imagine the live versions are 100 times better. the fact that he sweats a lot during his performances was a bit of his trademark en French you can say "transpirer ou suer "

Illicit products could be a reason too...

There are 2 french words for the sweating : la sueur (verb : suer) or la transpiration (verb : transpirer) ;)

Not the best video of that song if you ask me... This one's better: kzread.info/dash/bejne/moV_w8uRqpTSpag.html (ok, he's old, but the musicians are awesome and his voice remains at its best). Or you have something in between: kzread.info/dash/bejne/eHmqucV9Y5bbcaw.html (with Florent Pagny, a great French singer).

Transpirer, suer

Très loin de valoir l'original.
