Gilbert Bécaud

Gilbert Bécaud (French pronunciation: ​[ʒil.bɛːʁ be.ko], 24 October 1927 – 18 December 2001) was a French singer, composer and actor, known as "Monsieur 100.000 Volts" for his energetic performances. His best-known hits are "Nathalie" and "Et Maintenant", a 1961 release that became an English language hit as "What Now My Love". He remained a popular artist for nearly fifty years, identifiable in his dark blue suits, with a white shirt and "lucky tie"; blue with white polka dots. When asked to explain his gift he said, "A flower doesn't understand botanics." His favourite venue was the Paris Olympia under the management of Bruno Coquatrix. He debuted there in 1954 and headlined in 1955, attracting 6,000 on his first night, three times the capacity. On 13 November 1997 Bécaud was present for the re-opening of the venue after its reconstruction.

La place rouge était vide Devant moi marchait Nathalie 
Il avait un joli nom Mon guide Nathalie
La place rouge était blanche La neige faisait un tapis
Et je suivais par ce froid dimanche Nathalie 

Elle parlait en phrases sobres
De la révolution d'octobre Je pensais déjà
Qu'après le tombeau de Lénine
On irait au café Pouchkine boire un chocolat

La place rouge était vide
Je lui pris son bras elle a souri
Il avait des cheveux blonds mon guide
Nathalie Nathalie

Dans sa chambre à l'université
Une bande d'étudiants L'attendaient impatiemment
On a ri On a beaucoup parlé
Ils voulaient tout savoir Nathalie traduisait

Moscou Les plaines d'Ukraine Et les Champs-Elysées
On a tout mélangé Et l'on a chanté
Et puis ils ont débouché En riant à l'avance
Du champagne de France Et l'on a dansé

Et quand la chambre fut vide
Tous les amis étaient partis
Je suis resté seul avec mon guide Nathalie

Et plus question de phrases sobres
Ni de révolution d'octobre On n'en était plus là
Fini le tombeau de Lénine
Le chocolat de chez Pouchkine
C'est c'était loin déjà

Que ma vie me semble vide
Mais je sais qu'un jour à Paris
C'est moi qui lui servirais de guide
