David on Isabelle Adjani Album

[heartofdavid]

Saw this on Duran's website, Simon on an album which also features David.

“This past week I recorded a vocal on an Isabelle Adjani duets project. I was very pleased to hear she’d though of me for this collaboration, and was interested right away.

The project is a “concept” album about the cycle of a love relationship, from one break up to another. There are many male guest vocals on this album, so I was in good company as other participants included Peter Murphy from Bauhaus, David Sylvian from Japan, Youssou N’Dour, Seal and Christophe. The project is being produced by Pascal Obispo, who is a major star in France as well.

I flew to Lè Cap Ferret and stayed at Pascal’s beautiful home. We spent a full day in the studio capturing the vocal for the song “C’est Lui (It’s Him).” All of the guest vocals are angels inside the head of the protagonist (Isabelle), who speak to her though out different situations. It’s a very clever idea and I am excited to hear the entire finished product.”

Huh? What does David's daughter have to do with anything about this?

Here's a wiki link about Adjani, doesn't clear anything up for me but others might be familiar with her.

Hopefully is right. Well, she is much older now (55), perhaps her singing talent has improved with age.

Almost ten years. Did this project ever see the light of day???

[lukasgardiner]

nope - it was shelved by the producer/writer Pascal Obispo

[Quiet Visitor]

Could be that some of the songs were used form Obispo's album from 2018, called Obispo. Some of the musicians mentioned have contributed to that album, like Adjani and N'Dour.

[lukasgardiner]

Apparently only the Youssou N’Dour one was included in the 2018 Obispo album. Simon LeBon who is also on the shelved album has apparently been campaigning for (or at least asking Obispo about) its release. Time will tell. But would be great to hear something new with Sylvian involved considering we will likely never get something from him. He has retired officially has he?
