Jagger do likes him, Hendrix did. (He attracted more than 28 million people), more than 1000 songs / composed a hundred songs and sold over 100 million records. Happy birthday Jean Philippe Smet

I like him too.

Thanks for the tip, not much of a fan, but turned on the TV and here he is singing "Marie". Nice to see him on stage after he nearly kicked the bucket a few years in Vegas after that back operation...

I remember him saying at a TV show, There is only 2 rockers now in the world, Him and Jagger. >< Il nous fera toujours rire.

He just moved to the (rotating) "B-Stage" !

Best score on french tv for J.Hallyday. + a second show at "Theatre de Paris"(about midnight), with Brian Setzer-Stray Cats for several rock'n'roll songs.

He did a great show at the Albert Hall last year, I think it may have been his frist UK show!

I watched it on TV expecting nothing but I was pleasantly surprised :
apart from the expected cheesy/slow numbers he really rocked and his band is top-notch... with a monster of a drummer like Geoff Dugmore it's hard to put a bland show.

His cover of "Fortunate Son" was the highlight of the evening for me.

The French Cliff Richard ><

On of the best films I have ever seen is 'L'Homme du Train' starring Johnny Hallyday. Essentially it's the same story as 'Performance'.
