“When I see these images, I realize the chance that was mine to do things for pleasure, with pleasure and for the pleasure of laughing. And so, thanks to my singing friends, today, wherever I am in France, at the bottom of the most remote villages, on my face that has changed, people may see a little of their youth because in the street, I only meet smiles. “Jean-Marie Périer.
