The way I've discovered Le Roi Soleil

Hello friends!
Clémentine and malika have asked me how did I know Le roi soleil... Well, it started when I was watching TV. I was zapping and suddently something captured my attention when I reached the mcm channel... It was "Mon essentiel"... I was truly amaized with such voice and such feeling! I couln't believe! I felt so many things at the same time ! I couldn't stop thinking: "Oh my god!". Words are not enough to express what that stuning interpretation made me feel...
You may ask: " Well, but if you do´'t know the french language, then how could you understand what Emmanuel was singing???
I learned french for three years and I know enough to understand the basics... Besides, I asked a friend to translate the things I couln't understand.

I am really enjoying this site and you are so friendly!

I'm very happy : Emmanuel all around the world! It's a beautiful dream which realize.
[Sorry for my english]

See u later

That's beautiful, manu all around the world and after maybe in america and in asia it's fabulous!
sorry for my english too! Maybe what I wrote don't means anything

hey everyone,

I am English and I live in London. The way I discovered le roi soleil is in a way similar to the way Anaportugal did. My friend and I saw the music video for Mon Essentiel on the French top of the pops website. We loved it so much that we persuaded our teacher to take us on a trip to Paris. She agreed and so we went to Paris in December, during the time we were there we saw le roi soleil, it was amazing. Words cannot describe how brilliant it was! Emmanuel is soooo talented! I'm glad that i can talk about it with all you fine people! You are lucky that you are able to watch the TV programmes that he is on. I don't have any of the channels that you have in France.

Love Marie

Wow , maz, i'm so happy ! Emmanuel in england ! It's fabulous!

Mon essentiel is a beautiful song!

That's amazing ! I mean, that's so funny that our Emmanuel is now known in the entire world... well, in england and in portugal...

Yes that's right, as maz13 said it, we are very lucky to be able to watch tv programmes with "la troupe du Roi Soleil"... but you know we put some videos on the topic called "Medias" so you can aslo see those programmes !

Thank you AnaPortugal and maz13 for having told us how you have known Emmanuel Moire !!

See you soon !!

Bisousss

Welcome Ana from Portugal and Marie from London.

We're very happy to receive you on our site. To be able to discuss about Emmanuel and "Le Roi Soleil" with persons which come from all around the world is a big pleasure.

Thanks you to explain us how you discover the company of "Le Roi Soleil" through the net.

it's real that we're lucky to see them at the television and to have the chance to attend at the performance when they come in our city. Personally, I haven't seen them yet but I'll have this chance in March and in September. But I'm very delighted to have meet once Emmanuel, our King.

I hope you'll continue to enjoy "Le roi Soleil" and if you can, go to Paris from September to see them because that's fantastic.

And I wish to see you again here, on this site, because that's very interesting to discuss with you. that's permits us to use english.

Sorry for my english, it makes a long time that I haven't talk and write english.

see you soon and kisses

Thank you for your answer Anaportugal , now I understand better how you discovered our king .
I would say thank you Mcm!!!!!!!
If you want more videos, as it was already said, you can go to the part "Media", there you and maz13 can find almost all the videos concerning the troup.
Welcome again, hope you'll improve your french with us!

I Have to say I was estactic when I realised I could now post in English, especially as I speak the very smallest amount of French (for now!).

I'm planning to move to France one day so I've been looking for quite a few French singers. I was looking at Laurent Ban's website and found his links page. Through that I found another artist who'd worked with Anne-Laure Girbal. On her website I found a link to watch Etre a la hauteur. I loved the song and video as soon as I saw it! I then searched for more information on Emmanuel Moire and found the link to watch Je fais de toi mon essentiel. I've been a fan since and have played both videos around twenty times!

Sarah

Thank you for your specified !

No, I think he worked with Cathalina Andria in Le Petit Prince and though her links I found Anne-Laure Girbal. Laurent Ban is a fantastic singer as well. I think he's currently starring in Notre-Dame de Paris.

Actually the whole thing started because of Il Divo but that's another story!

Sarah, thanks a lot for your answer.

I understand now.

but if you want, you can tell us this new story because I don't know it.

see you soon

kisses

:O wow!! people of Portugal :lol

well, i saw in first time Emmanuel in MCM, on summer in Portugal too, oh god... he's so cute hehe

in September i was almost safe that it would go to Portugal to visit
my family and soon to go to Paris to see troupe, but I believe that
not it will be able and has to me very sad, really wanted to know
them, mainly to Mànu =(

Ana, eu sei português e podes falar comigo sem problemas

Fantastic !!! The show is known in Portugal and England ? I hope so and I hope this fabulous artists will be known all over the world.

Sorry for my english but I don't use it every day.

Welcome to Marie and Ana !!!

Well the show isn't very well known in England. At least not amongst the people I know. But hey I'm working on letting them know every little detail about it!

Its not very knowned in Portugal too...
But, just like Sarah, I do my best to let everyone know about Le Roi Soleil.

Merci pour votre réponses!

I swear my sister is sick to death of hearing about Le roi soleil, Emmanuel Moire and his songs! But hey, I'll still talk!

For me it was actually a mistake!

I have the dvd of 'Le Petit Prince' with Laurent, Cathaline and Sebastian (from Il Divo) in and I was searching for music by the other artists - especially Stephane Neville and my search engine gave me the link (I think it meant to give me a link to 'Les Enfants du Soleil'!) and I was entranced by the music. So I bought the cd on a trip to Paris. And loved it.

I had booked to see 'Notre Dame de Paris' last December and had a free day on the Sunday so decided to book to see 'Le Roi Soleil'. I am so glad that I did as it was magical from the first moment to the last.

Like Sarah it all stems from Il Divo!

Already planning to see it when it returns to Paris in September.

And spreading the word to all my friends around the world!

See they're really useful for promoting French singers! I've found loads of singers I love thanks to other Il Divo fans reccomending them to me!

Hi girls,
I'm soooooooooooooooooo happy to see that our band is known in other countries. Hope you'll enjoy our "forum".

Hiya Christelle and Katie and thank you for your welcome.

And Sarah - Il Divo have a lot to answer for! They all laugh at me at work as my mobile phone only has French ringtones/alerts on it!

Just by playing mon essentiel to my friends I have made them fall in love with the show (but obviously not as much as i have!). Like Sarah, my sister is so sick of hearing about le roi soleil or emmanuel moire, its the only album I'm listening to at the moment!

Yep my family laugh at me for all the French music I listen to and don't actually understand! But who can resist listening to Il divo, Emmanuel Moire, Laurent Ban, Lara Fabian, Shirel.....!
