In 1981, Claude Barzotti leaves its first disc on the French market: " Madame" who is sold with more than 400.000 specimens. But it is " Rital" who will make his glory and it is very often of this name that it still today is called.

When in 1990, it cases again with the slow fox trot “Loves me ', nobody thinks that the career of Claude Barzotti will be blown. It profits well from the nostalgic vagueness which shakes France with orée of the years 2000, but without never finding its radiation of antan. Thanks to his raucous voice and with his great popular successes, Claude Barzotti remains however one of the outstanding faces of the music of the years 1980.

Polemic

Claude Barzotti is also the author of an ignored title, because ever published: France is to the French . Drawn from a musical comedy denouncing racism (" The New Nomads "), which seen forever the day, this title was taken out of its context to create and feed a polemic where they were only the remarks made by a character symbolizing intolerance in the musical comedy, that Claude Barzotti was to play. However the extreme precision of these remarks and their great coherence with the situation which a quinquagénaire saw European origin living today in difficult cities, make that it is easy to imagine that these remarks are real, the more so as at any time the second degree is not present in the song.

For information, the words of this song are available on several sites of words which the respect of the rights of editions is not assured. See bonds at the foot of the page.

A " forgery clip" based on images of 1983 was assembled of all parts by nationalists. It could make believe that Claude Barzotti defended this song on television. On the contrary, the singer and the recording company did everything so that the song never took out of its context, and thus avoided any publication. It is consequently today difficult to find a specimen of it on Internet. But on the other hand the song, and with less title the clip, are the subject of important exchanges by p2p, in particular on the network emulates/eDonkey.

To summarize, the matter of this song is well to denounce racism through extreme and caricatural remarks, and not to make the apology for it.

And Now

Return in France with its new best off, it begins again in 2003 an Italian standard: " Vado Via" who should allure his fans and in love ones with Italian songs.

Its new individual, " Jada" , on August 8th, 2007 leaves and profits from a great promotion on behalf of TF1 and Orangina, which want to do one of their " of them; tubes of the été". He tells the history of a little girl saved of died in Laos by Dominique Cantien, producing well-known with TF1. This song is also the occasion for the singer to support the mission of association the Chain of the Hope towards the poor children of country not having access neither to the care, nor with education.
