My Angels, 07/02/2007
I live more and more adventures…
I had the opportunity to meet someone very special, leading me to Nepal in May. Thanks to your generosity and the show at the Casino of Paris. We are about to go into action… Yesssss… We will bring you some pictures… Thank youuuu…
I guess you are wondering what I am doing at the moment…? I’m travelling… I’m writing… I am thinking about the next album… I am preparing a play… Right now, at this very moment? I am in Québec, seating in front of my computer in pyjamas…And I am thinking of you… I have been doing a lot of things here… My singing courses with Lucette…She says I am not too bad…(ahhhahahaha) She’s right. She is the one who makes me the most of the ability we all have to evolve as an artist. This woman is the centre of my positive permanent questioning.
I have seen a wonderful movie. Okay, I am a bit late but I cannot do everything at the same time… This film is entitled “C.R.A.Z.Y”… The comedian is a real genius. Marc André Grondin. He plays this boy born on Xmas day… This movie is smashing. He is a Quebecker… A film you should see.
Musically speaking, where am I at the moment? I haven’t had time to listen to as much music as I wish I would since I have composed and written some… And that is when I stay in my world… I look for music inside… However, I have listened to different things like Gaetano Veloso… I love… Or my pal Matt Herkovitz, with whom I have been writing these past days…
Well, I have been thinking over this a lot before deciding to speak about it but after all, when we have a family problem, and when we love them, we talk about it and the problem is being solved…
Further to a message left by a fan hurt by something she heard, I want to express myself too: I don’t want to justify myself in anyway, I don’t have to. But I hope you will read and understand that I also want to share what I feel as this person did.
Here we go… For those who have misunderstood my words about peace I feel when I am in Québec and the freedom I feel when being there, I want to focus on the fact that I haven’t waited to be “famous” to feel this. As a kid, I kind of suffocated in those oppressing and stressing environments, in Brussels and later on in Paris. My arrival in Canada at 19 was a revelation…And my life changed entirely from that moment. There was a place where I felt lighter. It is as simple as that.
When my career became what it is like today, everything turned out to be simpler. I came upon an absolutely amazing person. Coming from a different place to where people don’t show their feelings to an artist. Why? I don’t know… Everyone’s different… Latin people like us, throw their arms around the artist’s neck to tell her/him how much they love her/him… People in Quebec are more modest and usually stand back. But that doesn’t mean my French fans are “nuts” and my Quebecker fans are “sluggish”… I am afraid that the nuance hasn’t been emphasized and the things said have been rather unfair… But this is called “a feeling”.
Everyone has the right to have their own “feelings”. This person or me… Whatever our job is and our obligations to this very job, we are allowed to express our “feelings”, which don’t mean take advantage to anybody… Which don’t denigrate, which keep our space of freedom, which make us human. My gratefulness to those who help me tracing my way remains the same. My French fans are the heart and the “Boosters” of my way. They keep me going when I am at the end of my tether. Thanks to them, I managed to get away from the media outcry. Because they’ve never let me down. Have I ever questioned this? No.
As for Quebecker people, they are the birthplace of this way. The place where I had been allowed for the very first time to be Me, not perfect for sure, but myself.
It is in Canada where everything began: A rebirth at the age of 19 is unusual, I did it in a “different” clan than the one I had really been born that’s why I often come back to Canada to have a rest… I am in peace here, it is true…That doesn’t mean I am at war elsewhere…Quite the reverse.
These feelings and sensations are those differences which create harmony in my life. Thank you for being who you are. Don’t ever change… I will never judge you… I will always express my self.
I just wanted to make it clear… I have done it.
I love you.
Lara.
Ps: See you soon somewhere
