Françoise Hardydied this Wednesday at her 80 years old due to cancer of the lymphatic system and pharynx, he triumphed at the age of 18 in a television program for young talents. She did it with a song in which she related how alone she felt and how accompanied she saw the rest of the boys and girls her age. The song was liked so much that it became a generational anthem. Was “All the garçons and the girls“, a text in his own handwriting. Like most of those he released, something unusual at his time. What’s more, he managed to perform in several languages, a fact that skyrocketed his fame in the United States and Japan. His songs were covered by admiring artists in the 80s.

At the beginning he managed to place two of his songs among the hits, ‘J’suis daccord‘ either ‘The times of love‘. With both themes he continued to portray his youth. “I agree with going to the movies. With dancing rock, twist or cha-cha. I agree with everything you want. But don’t count on me to go to your house,” she intoned in the first one.

In both of them he continued to talk about love and friendship: “It’s time to love, time for friends and adventures.”

He even dared to get on the Eurovision stage to denounce that ‘L’amour s’en va‘. She obtained a fifth position in the European competition at the same time that she began to be the muse of several designers like André Courrèges or Paco Rabanne.

Another of his essential songs is one in which he spoke more than he sang: ‘Message personalel’. In it she once again covered the topic of relationships.

In total, he gave life to 28 albums, three of them in English, and remained active until the disease. Hardy first suffered lymphatic cancerin 2004, from which she recovered, and then one of the larynx, since 2015. In recent years she had become an advocate for right to euthanasia, not yet recognized in France, and on which a bill is now being processed in the National Assembly. Last December, the performer and composer said in some interviews that she wanted to “leave soon and quickly”, and appealed to President Emmanuel Macron to “make possible” the right to euthanasia.
