At 59, Daniel Lévi makes his come back in music, his major health problems behind him, with a new album titled Thanks to you. He promoted it in A flash of Guény, Thursday, March 25, 2021, and took the opportunity to make some confidences.
Asked about his career, necessarily marked by his role in the cult musical The ten Commandments, Daniel Lévi responded with sincerity. “I can’t complain about being associated with such a standard [notamment le tube L’envie d’aimer, NDLR]. Afterwards, we had to do something that deploys so many parameters: the emotion, the great melody etc. I made great songs I think, I sold records, but it went unnoticed“, he confided admitting that he always had difficulty dissociating himself from his role of Moses in the show. And the singer to explain that he is basic one”jazzman, a soulman“and that he did not especially want to remain in the variety, yet more salesman kind in radio.
If he does not spit in the soup, his relation to Ten Commandments is therefore complicated. Especially since after his participation in the musical that made him known, other versions have emerged without him. The most recent of which, in 2016, has, according to him, abused his image … “I haven’t had the opportunity to see them. If I had had the opportunity out of curiosity I would have gone but there was a little conflict on the last edition. At first they left the confusion [sur sa présence]. One day, at Cyril Hanouna’s, I see The ten Commandments which resurface and I see myself, I hear my voice, even though I know nothing about it! Even though it lasted a very short time because I got it right, they used me, my image and my voice to get the case started. I have stepped up to the plate“, he tackled. Despite the controversy, the return of the show had aroused the enthusiasm of the public.
