I love it when one maestro (Sting) shows great respect to another (Legrand) like this. Sting knows he has to bring everything to the stage for this one, i love that he is caressing every note.
The duet of Legrand and Maurane singing Je ne pourrai jamais vivre sans toi is the most beautiful piece of music I have ever heard. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DcFH66IyXCU.html It's even better than the movie.
Superbe ... Michel Legrand était d'une grande gentillesse, et un homme simple (j'ai eu la chance de le rencontrer dans mon métier de batteur) , et un génie musical , Un sublime duo avec ce chanteur compositeur immense qu'est Sting...
Si improbable ce duo atypique ...et pourtant tellement magique par le talent de l'interprétation et la sensibilité musicale !...Quelle merveilleuse idée d'avoir formé ce duo éphémère et de qualité ! Merci Michel Legrand et Sting
When we were little, my brothers and I used to go to the cinema every Sunday, encouraged by our mother who would then have two hours peace. We lived in Paris at the time and would walk by ourselves the 850 yd from our flat. The only recommendation made by our mother was that they had to look after me and never ever, in any circumstances, leave my side. That Sunday in September 1967 ( I was 7 and my brothers 9 and 10 ) the film was "Les Demoiselles de Rochefort" The little girl I was was of course completely enraptured and at the end of the credits it was out of the question that I left the theatre ; I wanted to watch it all over again (up to the 80' you could stay as long as you wished and watch the film over and over again as much as you wanted) It was the first time that the film was something different from all the action or war movies we used to watch and for once I was going to have the last word. There was a heated argument between us for about ten minutes because my brothers couldn't leave me on my own there (no question for them, they had enough of this stupid and syrupy film and wanted out as quickly as possible) So they left. Needless to say that they had a good talk over when they returned home without me. They were told to go back double quick and sit with me through the film again until the very end. And they did. So after that episode, they wouldn't talk to me or play with me for ages. But I couldn't care less ; I had become a "Demoiselle" and would sing and dance no end.

C'est fou la capacité de la musique 🎶 pour nous réconcilier avec tout en nous... Merci Michel ! Intrinsically French ! 🇫🇷 You're right to hear 👂 Paris in 🗼 it !
I wish Sting would release all album of slow jazz ballads and torch songs (after dinner jazz)- his own and some of those beauties made famous by others - La Belle Dame Sans Regret, Until, My Funny Valentine, Nature Boy, Lush Life, Stella By Starlight, Love Letters Straight from my Heart, Windmills of Your Mind, What are You Doing the Rest of your Life, The Shadow of Your Smile etc.
So happy for Mr. Legrand reading from his face and gestures after the song finished. Simply a beautiful thing watch after creeping around a song called ‘The windmills of your mind’ find the way to get the right chords. So lucky to have found this-thnx for sharing. ❤️🍾
Oh! GOD what a Duo, LOVE MICHEL.L & ALSO STING A BIG FAN, 🥰🥰😍😘Today Iam 57 years old, for me this is my Present💝🎊🎉🎁 From a French women who imigrated to LONDON! ⛪💂💂Hello/Salut👋👋✌
Johnny Mandel, Henery Mancini, Michel Lagrand, Carlos Jobim and John Barry. I guess these guys were responsible for the intelligent musically informed side of the pop culture landscape i.e. film music sound track of the 60s. So much content these guys were responsible for. But gotta say more Zen less flourish there old buddy.
Hehe... you are right. I heard that, too but I am damn sure both could make it shine even more. They both seem to be a bit nervous, and no wonder! Listening to what the other does and get your impulse from there is all the magic even if the singer uses too many fermata :) The void is where the listeners click. They get into the zone towards the end and imagine what Sting could do if he didn't need to read the text.
