Fan of Don’t forget the lyrics, he had participated in the show in May 2021 and had recorded a new number alongside Nagui, which was to be broadcast on July 8.

“Thank you for having lived this adventure with me, we will return!”

“I don’t know if my defeat was honourable, what I do know is that I was there. I managed to get on your TV and that’s already my first victory. My second victory it is to have met incredible people who, like me, will take their revenge in a short year. So many other things allow me to say that going on the set was already a victory, wrote the young man after the broadcast of his passage in Do not forget the words. Congratulations to Geoffrey who didn’t let me sing The same song to my great despair… Even if I had had 40 and 20 points, you would have beaten me on Bruel, which proves the effectiveness of your revisions and the formidable adversary that you had was. And thank you for that!” He then promised: “Thank you for having lived this adventure with me, we will return!”
