"Tonight or Never ..."
October 6, 2008 by Yves Duteil
Some frequently asked questions:
- "You have stopped singing? "
- Never ...
- "You took a step back as an artist because of your activities mayor of your village you account for more? "
- No, I give 60 to 80 concerts a year for thirty years, and "(fr) agile" is my thirteenth album ...
- "We never see you more on TV, we can not hear you on the radio, you want to put you back from the media?
- No.
- "But then ... what happened to you? "
That's the question posed to me by Frederic Taddei and the team of "Tonight or Never" (France 3, Thursday, Oct. 2), inviting me on their tray on the eve of our first Dejazet to ...
My answers are in the show (24 approx.) ...

Good evening everyone, I finally listen to this show.
This puppet, but what horror!!!!!!!
My dear Yves, I have just one thing to tell you, after what I heard, I appreciate vouq 10 times.
Stephanie duteillophile and proud of it!
Yves goodnight,
Me, after reading regularly (and recent) of your blog, listen to this TV show where you have masterfully and deliberately answered questions from Mr. Taddei, attentive listening to your wonderful new CD autographed of your hand, it seems to me that your quarantine media will finally end.
I feel (you know, I'm a little witch. Do you remember the 'fat Witch "which you promised to play at All Saints?)
It is as if the tone quite innovative in your current show, which I attended the First of October 3, moving, going to give a positive development (that towards which your numerous admirers have always gone , that is to say that recognition oh well deserved.
In my opinion, the re-cognition is really on its way ...
I will never forget the tears of emotion that I paid Dejazet listening to "Learning" and "So that you do not die."
Thank you Yves.
I embrace you.
PS: this beautiful evening I was inspired by a collage that I just started.
Good evening everyone and thank you for your testimony that prompts me to re-offend.
Yves Duteil victim is too long an inexplicable media blackout. However, the public has never forgotten and it's amazing that he continues to fill rooms at 70 concerts a year, while being completely absent from the media. In fact, understand, this is not the public who has shunned the artist, but a few "high places" who chose to boycott. Why? Some leads but nothing concrete explainable. What follows is the snowball effect. The public, when to him, is still there and continues to demonstrate his friendship, just read the blog to see, but all the more appreciative about the Internet that are made on the websites of online sales, as it is for his music or his books!
His song "Take a Child" dedicated to his daughter, was elected by the public, unanimously "most beautiful song of the century" in 1988 with the help of two big radio and television. This will have inevitable consequences certain to stir jealousies that Helen has already commented. The fact that it does not help his own producer probably irrelevant here. Presumably, this business has its rules and it is difficult to depart? He turned to ridicule on a large public channel so that it invests in the cause of the case Seznec. They make fun of him in radio and television broadcasts. Some, inevitably, will bite the bait of stupidity, of mockery, injustice and wickedness easy and free. A reporter comes out atrocities on Yves explains one day, annoyed, when Yves, exceeded, the contacts, it is a shame that it "does its promotion" on the back of the Dreyfus affair. Without even knowing it is his own family! It was the least we can do that Yves makes him a great tribute. In this regard, Jacques Chirac, President of the Republic, wrote in 1998 a historic letter, emphasizing the heroism of Dreyfus and Zola, and denouncing the terrible plot against Dreyfus in the highest places of the state of the time . Still in 1998, to mark the centenary of "J'accuse", a celebration took place within the confines of the military school, and at the very spot where he had been degraded, has unveiled a commemorative plaque that says "Captain Dreyfus was accused of a crime of high treason he had never committed" ... Yves, of course, was present.
I'll spare you some unpleasant episodes, from a so-called comedian, or a famous radio host and television, to appear "in" to a young audience, and the name of "freedom of expression "was required to hold a rose about horrifying and offensive against Yves. Good example!
You know, Yves may well have the apparent serenity of a priest, and struggling in a number of causes for such is his ideal, he has always suffered much at one time, but also his family.
I do not explain such a hard when you know these people filled with so much simplicity and kindness.
These clarifications are made, since that was the subject of the show "tonight or never" for which he should thank Frederic Taddei have (re) opened the floor to our friend, we must now turn the page. Yves, for its part has long tour and instead pursued his art. The squabble and spend his life having to justify it, it's not his thing. The public appreciates it and it allows him to continue to move us and that's what counts.
We now have the poetry and beauty of his lyrics and his music.
Come to the Dejazet until October 19, there are still places, it is his greatest reward. I saw it, it is worth the trip and surprises await you.
See you soon.
Fabrice
Dear Yves,
I have nothing further to say that my impressions laisées following this issue in the space reserved for the article by Bertrand Dicale. But you must know that it did not change a comma, and that this puppet, disgusting, monstrous and moved should not even exist. My greatest pleasure is the jubilation of recording your every passage in the media, hoping that this message be heard more often you see. Many people like you in that environment. Starting with Evelyne Adam. It is for many, surrounded by Noelle, this renaissance magistrale.Ceux that "speak" did not understand and we all know you are suffering much more than you had left it to appear. Adam and Evelyne, we must thank her again and again to this contact Yves wonderful dear, that we had together on May 7 that I keep as a treasure.
Hoping that Jean-Luc can organize a concert in Dijon, and you do not leave us with no memory of this show, I am forever in your path.
I embrace you.
Nicolas
Dear Yves, Dear all,
Many of us know that your life as an artist, poet, writer, musician was still alive, the flame, perhaps sometimes wavering, never extinguished.
As stated Fabrice, turn the page, the adventure continues, the white pages are darken.
How fortunate, then to see the doors open again, to hear you, to allow as many you find, you see.
I will miss this afternoon on Rt (if I heard correctly) with Laurent Boyer. I hope a few minutes ...
I also hope that some of your new songs are released. FINALLY!
A Friday to hear you, see you again
It is undoubtedly for you moments of extreme happiness that you let us share.
Thank you.
Friendships always
Daniel
One thing left to do: put the address of this page in this broadcast all emails that are sent! it really is worth seeing!
while waiting to see the theater "the rhone" valence to the village ... forward ... a few weeks before going Benabar applaud.
Thank you for your energy, your conviction, and all your battles!

Good evening,
J 'listening Yves Duteil long ago, some time ago I've rediscovered; small village where my ds lives Jean Ferrat, I compare you. Thank you for continuing.
We were very touched by the issue of France 3 (on your site).
We have no television since 1991.
We discovered "humor" of which you have experienced. We knew that we could be so mean ... and so stupid.
You were particularly moving.
We have followed all these years and we have songs that are upset many.
Thank you for going back into the studio: we need your songs.
See you on the roads of France
Christine and John
Hello Yves
I just read all these comments of support, thank you to Fabrizio for all these details, I feel too that something is about to be passed, as if finally, some journalists realized the harm they have done unjustly, and as if to correct the mistakes ... It's time we give you the space you deserve: that of a great ARTIST!
The public has always known this and it is by your side.
I too have seen for the third time the new show at the theater Dejazet yesterday, and I assure you it is simply AWESOME ... I strongly encourage you to share this great moment of emotion and happiness.
That you enjoy what Yves, come and discover it ... but so different
And you Yves, continuing to make us experience moments so strong ..
Hello,
sunny day in Bordeaux, I go for the thousandth (or more) times on your blog, I just watched this story that I missed through ignorance, I hope it was seen by many, it was very interesting, did you have defended criticism, good presence!
I hope that the album works well and the tour will be successful.
When you want on TV ...
Noelle and friendship to you;
Philippe.
I've just read this blog and I can not help but say thank you. Thank you for all your songs, thank you for their poetry, their correctness. I have really discovered around 1985. I was baby sitting and parents had the album "The ivory statue" MAGNIFICENT.
I also cried a friend by dedicating the text of "Between father and husband." My son (6 and 8) application loop and Eulalie Amanda ... My favorite?? There are too many! Maybe for "the world's children" but this song in a further echo for me. Indeed, Belgian, she reminds me Julie and Melissa since she had been sung at their funerals.
ME I would like to be able to listen again and again and sing loudly your songs!
And you find again and again the inspiration for your text so beautiful! and be happy
Cuckoo!
Grrr I missed the show on RTL with Yves but you can listen on the site!
http://www.rtl.fr/fiche/2120060/la-tete-dans-les-etoiles-du-07-10-08.html
Thank you Mr. Duteil of us-sing every day!
Sincerely: Karine (walcourt) Belgium
We are waiting impatiently in Belgium!
Hello Yves,
We just heard of this new feature in your blog .... What a surprise! We had never seen the "puppet"! This really leaves us in a kind of anger ... Since 1979, we live with you through your songs and for good reason, you know (Sebastian) ... We got to know you through your songs, books (the words we have not called, the words in the air, etc. ..) What a long way since "taking a child" ...! Of course this song was proclaimed Song of the century ... But for the media, it has become a screen on all the other songs. There were so many songs more beautiful than the others we found in each album release ... Every song has the experience and each can reach people who have experienced the same thing ... I remember " your absence "and" my mother "outputs on the death of our maman.De many songs are linked to particular events in many families .. "I missed forever" "childhood injury" "so you do not die" etc. ... And each album is a very special event in the family (operations Sebastian) and especially Dreyfus you saved some January 1997 at Disney ....
Ourselves, have always been surprised not to see you on TV screens, which does not detract from listening to you ... Fortunately, we have many videos, and we always meet the fans in the theaters always full This reassures us ..: you always have a loyal following and you stayed true to yourself, that's what we like, your songs ring true ... and contrary to what is said, they are full of news: Back in Asia, Dreyfus, Tibetan, Grandpa Yitzhak, The Other Side, One way to hell, The language of home .. etc .. etc ... One wonders if the media are really aware of topical deep. As so aptly Fabrizio, do not go into this controversy but continue to appreciate the work of artist Yves, his poetry, his songs, songs that will listen, meditate with melodies that vary. What a pleasure to listen and re-listen to some 170 songs only? - (Irony) Yves soon! PS Super issuance Paris-Quebec ... You have to be in Quebec to see you on TV ..!!
Good evening,
Anecdote bien agréable en milieu associatif.
J'arrive d'une réunion pour un projet de spectacle caritatif.Nous avons parlé chansons.
Quand j'ai prononcé le nom d'Yves Duteil,j'ai vu les visages s'illuminer d'un beau sourire.J'ai entendu des paroles chaleureuses.Certains ont dit »je l'aime beaucoup » et d'autres « moi aussi » moi aussi » comme un écho autour de la table;et encore »on l'a vu à la télé l'autre soir ».Je sentais,avec joie,que toutes ces personnes étaient heureuses d'avoir vu Yves sur FR3 comme s'il leur avait manqué.
Annie
Épilogue d'un chemin de traverse.
Vous avez raison Léo. Une immense vague se soulève tel un tsunami qui engloutit la conscience d'une élite médiatique qui s'est évertuée à lessiver nos cerveaux pour mieux faire naître « sa machine à générer du profit » au détriment de la qualité. C'est raté ! Le grand public, un temps influencé, et pour cause, se réveille et les véritables valeurs reprennent doucement le dessus. Vous souvenez-vous lorsque j'écrivais « le bien finit toujours par l'emporter sur le mal » ? On ne peut pas indéfiniment leurrer le public. L'esprit rebel du peuple Français se lève comme un seul homme pour vous « réhabiliter ». Comme il est bon de réentendre sur des radios à vocation francophone des poètes de votre qualité.
Nous n'allons pas nous arrêter en si bon chemin.
Amis blogueurs, comme moi vous aimez Yves Duteil ? Faites le savoir largement. Puisque nous sommes présents sur ce blog, nous avons des outils de communications formidables à notre disposition. A nous de les utiliser. Écrivez aux médias et demandez qu'il soit diffusé. Donnez vos impressions sur la qualité de tel ou tel album sur les sites de vente en ligne. Mobilisons nous !
Cher Yves, j'ai lu quelque part que vous aviez hésité à moment donné, à continuer d'exercer votre métier d'artiste. Je peux vous dire que si vous étiez devenu ébéniste, je vous aurais acheté une écritoire. Si vous étiez devenu paysagiste, un grand saule, luthier, une guitare… Non seulement pour la qualité de vos œuvres que j'aurais de toute façon continué d'écouter, mais pour l'homme que vous êtes.
« Pour un monde meilleur, tout simplement »
See you soon
Fabrice

Dear Yves,
Following the show, I first reacted with great anger, how can anyone be so cruel to a man like you? I was disgusted, what suffering! should fall so low to the hearing? Then I calmed down you reacted like a lord with great elegance showing us the way, the coup in their wickedness appeared that most pathetic and admiration of your audience strengthened and we are all standing there to serve them with our Mr. Tadei mépris.Merci to have you allowed yourself exprimer.Merci to exist, I would testify before all of the great kindness you have shown yourself to Noelle and supporting me during my illness I will never forget . Then continue to delight us. Françoise
De la part de Sébastien… Son histoire écrite il ya 20 ans, il avait 10 ans… Enigme : Combien de titres de chansons d'Yves retrouverez-vous ?
Je n'étais qu'un petit garçon, mais jamais seul dans ma maison
Je n'avais d'autre plaisir que d'écouter des chansons.
Dans ma maison de Normandie, rien n'est rouillé, rien n'est jauni. Mais là, enfin, un jour j'ai ri.
Avec la guitare qui me démange, j'ai appris à sourire aux anges et découvert d'autres chansons d'alors.
Prendre un enfant par la main, moi, j'en ai besoin pour commencer mon chemin.
Le chemin de la liberté, pour moi qui ne peut pas marcher, c'est d'abord savoir chanter :
Comme : un soleil sur l'agenda que l'on m'offra, avec les choses qu'on ne dit pas.
La ligne de vie pourtant, grandit, laisse apparaître ma mélancolie…
Sur le piano de Mélanie, je joue les mots qu'on n'a pas dits : je voudrais t'avoir pour ami.
Mais, j'ai le coeur en bois et j'attends, le silence ou la vérité ; pour les enfants du monde entier, recevras-tu mon amitié ?
La valse des étiquettes que l'on colle sur les vedettes, n'est qu'une rumeur ou est-ce un fait ?
Quand je quitte, pour l'école ou l'hôpital, ma maisonnette, je prends toujours toutes mes cassettes pour écouter les p'tites casquettes.
Quand je suis triste, je suis une larme, j'écoute Yves Duteil qui m'apaise comme un coucher de soleil.
C'est un instant de trêve, alors je rêve que les fées viennent, sur mon village endormi, comme dans les dessins de Follon.
Qu'y at-il après ? « Marie, merveille, Marie bonheur » qui est rayé, qui répète inlassablement : Marie merveille…Marie merveille…Marie merveille…
Si tu savais jusqu'ou je t'aime, comme je subis ton absence même. Mais les temps viendront où nous nous rencontrerons.
Les choses qu'on ne dit pas et les mots qu'on n'a pas dits, sur l'écritoire, la langue de chez nous nous les transmettra comme le temps s'écrit sur ton visage.
Je voudrais connaître le bonheur infernal et faire la farandole jusqu'au coucher du soleil.
Je ne voudrais pas être une vedette et valser comme une étiquette, je voudrais être entouré d'amis, de vrais amis.
Et chanter l'hommage à mon chanteur d'un jour
J'ai caché mon mouchoir, je ne pleurerais pas ce soir….
Pour toi YVES
Pour tous les bons souvenirs que j'ai eus avec toi et Noëlle… Merci. Sébastien
Interview très interressante et si bien répondue…
C'est vrai qu'on ne vous a plus vu sur les grands plateaux tv ces dernieres années, mais il me semble que l'on vous voit de nouveau pluS derriere l'écran pour le moment,… pas enormément certes, mais vous etes un chanteur de scene, pas de télévision,…
et l'on vous voit dans des emissions aussi assez pointues, comme celle ci assez interessante,…
meme surprenante, ce passage au guignole, et votre explication qui suit, je suis moi aussi abéré, les gens rient parfois sans meme savoir de quoi, d'un personnage créé, un personnage fictif, qui n'est pas vous,….
je suis de plus en plus fan, de ce chanteur, de ce MONSIEUR Duteil…
Pierre Marie and his son Sebastian, what a wonderful text ... What a tribute to the songs of Yves ... I have listed 35 ... in this text, is that correct?? I play this game for 3 weeks with Lawrence, and it brought us to want to meet us in real life to speak of Yves, simply and amicably. And there, we now find it hard to leave ... Who knows, the birth of a great story? Thanks to Yves for all these songs, for the franchise during this program, recorded by my mom, that beautiful cadeau.Et the good, the tender for the concerts in Paris
Friendships.
Valerie (Belgium)
Move!
Like a dormant volcano, Yves, you remained in oblivion, but the media only because forgetting seen all this evidence, no one has really forgotten you ... So like a slumbering volcano, the eruption coming here with his dish that is slowly but surely through a whole country .... Yes, there was suffering, they are reflected in some songs, "and so sometimes the awkwardness, malice or contempt, a look or a word offends me, however I also know that I found the joys most beautiful .... "And who also reached Noëlle" to share his adventure, I know sometimes tears, when her smile is an armor "... You share your happiness and discomfort ... this" hellish happiness "written in 1981 already (!) I quote "to push up the absurd image in which we wanted to lock me up: naive and blissfully happy, spared the life and hopelessly optimistic" .... As each of us you have experienced hardship but you continued to write for the happiness of others. Emotions that bring us these songs when we hear them on stage, this way you "support" on certain words that reach the heart to the point that you feel in communion with you ... this is the art of the stage, she, you never left ... just like the public. To me you are a true poet, your songs are so rich in vocabulary they listen and re-listen with the same emotion ... Your career is not over far from it! Thank you to all those who support you .... it's a blast!
Kisses to both
It only remains to Valerie and Laurent to get married at City Hall Précy ... But do not expect. O)
I went to the concert last night ... Yves Duteil
Like many of us, the songs of Yves accompanied my way for many years.
So I wanted to say this:
Being in the public When Yves sings on stage, is to receive all humanity and all the kindness that emanates from this man ... and also its authenticity. The audience is immersed in all this sweetness and love ... So today, I feel reassured that you read ... Because everyone in this blog, seeing all these people who travel to concerts, I tell myself, in this society that wants us to believe that everything lies in the appearance ... well ... we're not all sheep! and a huge amount of my contemporaries are the "real" for their lives and the earth ... So, finally, the entire period of absence of Yves Duteil media, also reassures me somewhere, because this is it not proof that all these years, it did not fit the superficial world of pomp and show-biz? And if, now, is meant to benefit about him, I bet (and here I agree completely Fabrice) that it will not because IT has changed, but certainly because the media will begin a change, change initiated by the awareness of the public. Yes! the wheel always turns ...
So therefore, I am reassured!
And reassured me, and I thank you all as Yves, who are on the same wavelength!
Riff
A Valerie ...
Yes, a tribute to Yves, through his songs.
Yves really deserves it ... and two months after this exchange here (1988) they met and turned from .... we will never forget that first meeting (or the following for that matter). Behind the artist, there is the generous man, attentive, involved in many causes as shown by the associations they sponsor. Nothing is finished ...!
For titles I had listed 34 ...!
And it spins at home ... 30 years ...!
kisses to all!
You were great on the show! Answered the questions.
We see you more on TV with tea or coffee, c best in the morning and two emissions Daniéla Lombroso.
Hugs
Marie-Josée October 10, 2008
"Mediocrity, mediocrity" when you hold us!
Especially with you consolidate this small wooden bridge fragile but strong and tough with you leading us from one bank to another for over thirty years!
Sweep of the eyes for a moment a world we have trouble recognizing cruel and merciless where money and power reign supreme, where our way of being, our behavior, our way of seeing things can be fatal and lead us to the last position of a form of one to one hundred questions.
Of course the rankings matter to us but the consequences are soon to be felt:
For some we are not in the standards, we belong to another world, we do not speak the same language and we are apart.
The media wants the scandal to the hearing!
Everything is measured in the same emissions.
So on TV, radio, it removes all that is normal.
Apart from a few radio stations and some television channels that we concoct beautiful programs, all others are similar: same styles of singers, songs, "music" stun, American series, rifles in hand, with any endless scenes of dissection .........
Should be "up to date", dress up as monster, out of nonsense, "kiffer Gave", ignore politeness, have a private life eventful and have the look that kills to succeed?
Intolerance, violence and injustice are almost all over the world.
We can not stand his neighbor, children are killing each other and sometimes we wonder if justice exists.
Alors de temps en temps il faut se montrer et remettre les pendules à l'heure ! (au sens propre et au figuré) !
Bravo pour votre présence dans cette émission du 2 octobre.
oui, un poète dérange et tant mieux.
Vous faites partie de ceux-là et nous en sommes fiers.
Vous avez la chance d'intervenir par vos chansons qui laissent des traces indélébiles et nous amènent à la réflexion.
Par vos actes vous vous battez pour un monde plus juste, plus humain. Grâce à vos associations vous recueillez des fonds pour venir en aide aux mutilés de la vie et en plus vous êtes Maire de votre village depuis 1989.
Alors Bravo et Merci.
On ne va pas demander à un poète de vivre sans fleurs,sans oiseaux, sans animaux !
Si un poète à la tête dans les étoiles, il a les pieds sur terre et il n'ya pas plus actif qu'un poète.
Bonsoir Yves.
Une tendre pensée pour Noêlle et tous vos amis.
Much love
See you soon

C'est sur la pointe des pieds que je pose mom commentaire. Voyez plutôt : habituée à lire vite, très vite (trop vite sans aucun doute) j'ai parcouru l'article de B. Dicale en diagonale. Mes yeux n'ont saisi que les mots qui plantaient le glaive de toutes ces choses négatives qu'on a entendues sur Yves Duteil. Impulsive, j'ai réagi avec véhémence mais ayant relu l'article à « tête reposée », je dis merci à M. Dicale pour avoir soulevé une polémique qui a rebondi sur une émission où Yves a été magistral. Je reprends mon clavier pour vous dire que je suis heureuse que beaucoup de personnes pensent et partagent ces sentiments que MONSIEUR Yves Duteil déclenchent chez chacun.
A chaque fois que j'écoute ses chansons et que j'entre dans cet univers je me sens plus forte, libre de penser, d'aimer plus fort encore et toujours, j'adhère à cette authenticité, à ses engagements qui nous permettent de garder la tête haute et froide. Yves n'est pas à côté de la plaque et ne l'a jamais été. Il a suscité jalousie, crainte donc danger. Quand il ya danger, c'est la quarantaine médiatique! C'était sans compter sur le public qui ne se trompe pas, le suit et l'aime toujours et certainement de plus en plus.
J'écoute Yves Duteil partout et rien ne peut m'en empêcher: l'endroit le plus insolite fût une table d'opération pendant que le chirurgien s'affairait. Autant de fois que je peux je partage ses textes. Je n'ai jamais rencontré un artiste qui donne autant d'attention à ceux qu'il croise. Tout le monde est important. Il a en lui le respect des autres, la sincérité, l'authenticité et pour ceux qui le connaissent mieux un humour certain. Il m'inspire le respect et la bavarde que je suis reste muette en sa présence. Il se souviendra d'une émotion intense lors de la remise de cassettes-audio concernant Félix Leclerc du côté de Lille.
N'arrêtez jamais de croire en vous Monsieur. Je suis fière de vous compter parmi les gens que j'aime.
Merci pour ce blog qui est un lien fort et utile.
Cher Monsieur Duteil,
Je suis outrée, je n'en reviens pas. Vous, ringard !!! Comme vous avez et devez être blessé. Vous, le poète-chanteur-humaniste. Vous qui êtes au Québec un »Roi »… Quelle impolitesse, quel manque de respect.
Monsieur Duteil, Félix vous dirait sûrement de garder la tête haute, soyez fier de ce que vous êtes. Une personne d'exception.
Je vous envoie de la magnifique ville de Québec jusqu'à votre belle France, toute mon admiration et mon affection.
Ringard vous… »on aura tout vu » (ce qui veut dire: ça ne se peut pas). Vous êtes peut-être dans l'ombre télévisuelle mais vous êtes dans la lumière de nos coeurs, tout près de nous, si proche.
Tenderness

Je viens de temps en temps. Comme je l'avais écrit, je ne vous connaissais pas ou peu. Mais votre dernier album me touche beaucoup.
Vous savez jouer avec les mots. Sur mon blog, je mettrai sans doute cette semaine un lien vers votre extrait de concert. Car votre chanson sur le lien grand-parents petits-enfants m'a fait penser à un couple de blogger et comme nous partageons nos coups de coeur…
Bonne route et merci de vous être battu et être resté vous-même pendant ces années difficiles. Kipling en avait parlé, « si tu peux voir salir l'ouvrage de tes mains et… »

Bonjour Yves, et merci pour tout ce travail énorme que vous avez fait jusque là (musique, associations, articles, …, …). Nous sommes venus mon épouse et moi, de Lausanne en Suisse, samedi dernier (11 octobre) à Paris pour vous écouter enfin en live à l'occasion de nos 10 ans en commun. Je viens de voir l'émission sur FR3 et je découvre le poids qui a dû (et qui doit encore) peser sur vous et tous ceux qui sont autour de vous depuis des années. Votre réaction à ces propos, ces images, ces méchancetés, bien humaines malheureusement, est probablement, à mon sens, la raison première de votre marginalisation des médias. Quoi de plus énervant pour l'agresseur, en effet, face à son agressivité, que l'absence de défense, et mieux encore, une réponse bourrée de compassion et de paix ?
Une histoire qui nous amène à une autre, il ya un peu plus de 2000 ans, relatée dans les évangiles…
Il n'ya pas d'explication complexe à chercher dans l'agressivité de l'homme pour ses semblables, elle se trouve au plus profond de son cœur et ne pourra jamais être transformée par une intelligence qui elle-même est déformée par ce cœur malade.
Vos textes, vos musiques, votre manière de les chanter, tout est là ! Jamais d'agressivité, jamais de vulgarité, et pourtant des messages qui vous scotchent littéralement sur votre siège jusqu'à la fin de la chanson. Je n'avais jamais vu ça dans un concert: le silence total sur toutes vos chansons … Respect ! Et merci mille fois pour ce moment de total bonheur. J'aurais envie de vous dire : à quand le prochain album ? mais ce serait purement égoïste, et je préfère vous souhaiter de continuer de vivre vos moments, votre vie selon vos priorités, avec votre famille, et tant mieux si vous nous la faites partager de temps à autre.
D. Frossard, Suisse.
cher Yves,
lorsqu'un enfant a souffert petit, lorsqu´on l´a grondé, puni, s´est moqué de lui et qu´il a reçu peu d´amour, il aura tendance a répéter ce schéma: gronder, punir se moquer et donner peu d´amour. je crois que les moqueries dont vous avez été victimes venaient de personnes qui ne pouvaient pas supporter de voir ce qu´elles n´avaient jamais connues petites: amour, compréhension, écoute, respect. Vos chansons, vos paroles les blessent au plus profond d´elles mêmes et elles ne peuvent pas supporter de réaviver leur douleur chaque fois qu´elles vous écoutent…. aussi rien de mieux que de faire tout pour que vous vous taisiez.
cela serait si beau de pouvoir trouver un baume pour leurs blessures!
merci pour être comme vous êtes.
Hello,
J'ai vécu beaucoup de souffrances,petite,
J'ai grandi sans amour
» On ne m'a pris par la main pour m'emmener vers demain »
C'est pourquoi,je ne remercierai jamais assez Yves pour le baume sur mes blessures ,grâce à ses chansons depuis 35 ans.Il m'a aidée à trouver la sérénité,à ouvrir mon coeur aux autres pour enfin m'investir dans le domaine caritatif pour les enfants.
Bien amicalement

Hello Yves, I discovered your blog, I like your texts like the person I am fan too: Lynda Lemay; both, you have a knack for expressing things in life the simplest or most difficult, wonderful songs.
I have unfortunately never been able to attend one of your concerts, but your songs are in my head and my heart.
Love to you.
So Long Your sweetness and your charisma have melted my heart. The soul of each one of us feels an attraction to his sister. People who do not appreciate you probably have no soul.
In this world where nothing is spared to the pure in heart, are fierce critics. You know ignore this courtesy with which you are so clean. Lyrics of your songs reflect who you are: a real man and full of hope in life and love, in what is beautiful in the human being (yes). I will see you in Cholet in January because I need to listen to recharge my batteries.
Thank you Yves
Gisele

I am pleased that we yves duteil. How deceptionn n having failed rather that he went on stage in Paris. I will buy his album.
I just listen to the interview. Bravo, well said, well defended. His wisdom will pay one day.
Congratulations to this benevolent man.
Hello,
Listening to you, the idea came to me that you, too, as Dreyfus at the time, you are the bearer of an injustice.
The "transgenerational" does exist, and as you point out, we carry burdens or torches.
It is necessary that the chain stops at a time, and you and your Noëlle, as Lucie Dreyfus, have already done a great job in this direction, but everyone can not understand it, that's life!
Good luck, here we appreciate what you do.
And ... there who love you, even in Belgium, even flamingos, like me, for years. How to find the words when 'words, words do not exist'?
Duteil Dear Sir,
So long ago that I wanted to respond to this evil that revolves around your person. Sorry to address as vous, but I have too much respect for that which I place next to Jacques Brel, Georges Brassens In, Maxim Leforestier Linda Lemay ... you are definitely géantissime a French song which the world will remember as we remember Victor Hugo.
One day in 1983, I had a buddy gave me the famous double album "Olympia". From Yves Duteil, I knew that taking a child, the little wooden bridge or the tarantella. I was only 15 years and I was upset. So many wonders: 30 years, the writing, the word is not said, the Park Monceau. I became an immediate fan of your songs, when the time was rather Prince, Simple Minds and U2 (which I also listen too!). And at the library, I rushed to discover other marvels: The statue of ivory, the sun on the agenda, the Corsican, and of course Folon and Language from us ...
In 1985, I started with guitar accompaniment, not without some musical background and I discovered the amazing guitarist as you are. We can even talk of genius because you invented a totally new way to accompany. You were my guitar teacher for THOUSANDS of hours, and I am far from you match.
If you knew the hundreds of times I sang your songs, how they relieved me of a difficult adolescence because I too was different. Very sensitive and romantic, I dreamed of impossible love because of my physical rather ungrateful. I went into the garden with my guitar to sing near the hedge, eyes wide open and full of tears as I loved what I was singing, what I said. Have you at least realize how many people you've done well, Mr. Duteil? Your songs have the power of healing ... a prayer.
Later, when I wanted to amaze my audience at a campfire or a night guitar for example, I was waiting for the right moment and I unwrapped one of your wonders (the soft image of happiness, sadness, fruit my orchard ...). People were dumb with admiration at these marvels, often unknown to the general public. AND could not believe that these masterpieces are from the author of the small wooden bridge. We will be laughed at you with this nursery rhyme, does not it Mr. Duteil? It's like taking a Jacques Brel idiot because he sang "Candy"! In reality, the majority of those who disparage you do not know a quarter to half of your directory.
Two marriages and four children were well looked my last year. I have not watched too much of the media during the past fifteen years. Today I discovered this story after hearing rumors of malice towards you. Your answers to the journalist, addressed us in perfect French, have received their purpose well, despite the smiles in the corner of this reporter.
IT remains the question why this setting parenthesis? Why this relentless media? I do not know exactly, but I can provide some answers. It is not good to be romantic or sweet, or tender in 2009. Look at the media, movies, video games: it is the glorification of violence, cynicism, vulgarity, pornography. It carries a Doc gyneco to the skies and we invite Rocco Sifredi as a hero of the film on TV trays. TV channels for youth discharged with a vengeance emissions which exposes exactly what not to do. The media will tell you: it is simply responding to demand. It is clear themselves of their enormous responsibility. There was a time when you looked at the westerns on TV and everyone was happy. Today, it is considered as a Seven absolute masterpiece of cinema, a film where the hero's wife is decapitated and his head given to the State in a gift box. And everyone applauded, and everyone think it's great. As if that was the norm. As if it was good.
Aujourd'hui, celui qui n'est pas menaçant, mal fringué avec une barbe de 4 jours, celui qui travaille bien à l'école, celui qui est courtois est immédiatement qualifié de ringard, de con ou pire de… gentil (ô suprême qualificatif !). Monsieur Duteil, vous incarnez toutes les qualités (car ce sont bien sûr des qualités) citées plus haut. Mais sachez que vous n'êtes pas seul. Nous sommes des millions dans le cas… mais nous n'avons pas la malchance d'être célèbre comme vous. Vous constituiez le parfait bouc émissaire. Je pense que plus qu'une attaque personnelle, c'est l'attaque du monde des médiocres, des incultes et des malappris face à ce que le monde devrait être. A ce qu'ils sont incapables d'atteindre. Comme dirait mon épouse, quand on ne sait pas se faire remarquer par son intelligence, il faut trouver autre chose…Les médias relayant ces idées, on se retrouve dans un monde à l'envers où le bienfaiteur fait sourire et le bandit suscite l'admiration.
Mais nous sommes encore là; nous devons encore souvent nous cacher, dissimuler nos sentiments. Mais un jour viendra où le monde des gentils ressurgira au grand jour. J'espère qu'avec ce très bel album, vous entamerez un retour tant mérité.
Merci Monsieur Duteil pour tout le bien que vous avez apporté à vos auditeurs, à vos oeuvres et combats, à l'Humanité. Vous êtes un GEANT. Et un jour, le monde saura !

Superbe coup de gueule que je partage tout à fait, bravo Christian.
« Gentil n'a qu'un oeil » était une expression de mon enfance … que j'ai comprise très tardivement. A l'époque, je n'entendais que « gentil » …compliment pour un enfant mais « n'a qu'un oeil » précisait « ne voit qu'à moitié » … de 2 choses l'une
- soit on fait le déni de la face destructrice de l'homme … et on devient un « gentil béné » … « Bon et bête commencent par la même lettre » disait ma mère !!!
- soit on fait le déni de la face constructive de l'homme … et on devient un « gentil voyou ou méchant »
Mais on peut choisir d'approcher de ses propres fragilités, sa propre sensibilité … en osant « s'approcher sans condescendance des fragilités de ses pairs »…à la mesure de notre possible… pas plus … pour la transformer en toutes sortes d'actions dites « gentilles » par d'autres(ne disait-on pas autrefois, faire sa béa !!!)… parce qu'ils n'ont pas oser et ne savent pas encore tout ce qu'on reçoit de divin en donnant sans faire de transaction, sans attente.
Definition of "a nice":
- Name that the Hebrews gave to foreigners and Christians to pagans 1st (Larousse)
- Non-Jews, said in the New Testament, either of the first Gentile Christians and all Gentiles.
* Saint Paul is the apostle of the Gentiles.
* ... For Jews, is well known, were also generous in exercising the duties of charity and hospitality to their brethren, they were said to be stubborn and stingy when it came to apply them to those they called Gentiles, and which, by their conduct, certainly deserved some such hospitality from them. (Walter Scott, Ivanhoe, the English translation by Alexandre Dumas, 1820)
- (Par extension) Tous les incroyants à une religion donnée.
… Intéressant tout çà!!! mais çà ne concerne pas du tout notre ami Yves et son épouse … au vue des actions de solidarités qu'ils mettent en oeuvre en transparence sur le blog certes (fonds récoltés) mais sans ostentation !!!!
gentil: adjectif
1. Courtois, poli.
2. Affable, aimable, gentil, amène
… oui ceci correspond à ce j'ai pu percevoir à chacune de mes rencontres avec Yves, parfois « d'oeil à oeil »
… mais alors pourquoi celà gène t-il tant qu'Yves soit « gentil » dans le monde de l'apparence par excellence du show biz,où chacun sait très bien qu'il se cache toujours un méchant derrière le masque du gentil et vice versa… n'est ce pas peut-être la transparence des fragilités d'Yves …qui leur fait peur tout simplement pour ce qu'elle sous-entend à voir pour eux même.
