Plastic Bertrand - Asterix Versus Caesar - Astérix est Là 1985

Asterix is a French comic album series about a Gaulish village which, thanks to a magic potion that enhances strength, resists the forces of Julius Caesar's Roman Republic Army in a nonhistorical telling of the time after the Gallic Wars. Many adventures take the titular hero Asterix and his friend Obelix to Rome and beyond. The series first appeared in the Franco-Belgian comic magazine Pilote on 29 October 1959. It was written by René Goscinny and illustrated by Albert Uderzo until Goscinny's death in 1977. Uderzo then took over the writing until 2009, when he sold the rights to publishing company Hachette. By 2023, the volumes in total had sold 393 million copies, making them the best-selling European comic book series, and the second best-selling comic book series in history after One Piece. The first French satellite, which was launched in 1965, was named Astérix-1 in honour of Asterix. Asteroids 29401 Asterix and 29402 Obelix were also named in honour of the characters. Coincidentally, the word Asterix/Asterisk originates from the Greek for Little Star.

Asterix Versus Caesar (French: Astérix et la surprise de César) is a 1985 French animated adventure comedy film, written by René Goscinny, Albert Uderzo and Pierre Tchernia, produced by Dargaud Films and Les Productions René Goscinny, and released in France originally in December 1985. The film's story sees Asterix and Obelix set off to rescue two lovers from their village that have been kidnapped by the Romans.

The film is the fourth film adaptation of the Asterix comic book series, but features an original story combining the plots of Asterix the Gladiator and Asterix the Legionary, both written by Goscinny. The film's main theme song, "Astérix est Là", was composed and performed by Plastic Bertrand, a Belgian musician, songwriter, producer, editor and television presenter, best known for the 1977 international hit single "Ça Plane Pour Moi".

Happy Ides of March! 🔪🔪🔪 I'm sure Asterix would approve of this tumblr holiday.

Abbacadabra 1983

I have already talked about the Starmania Prequel , but Michel Berger is not the only one to have had the idea of ​​creating a musical just for the french television !

On December 21, 1983 Alain and Daniel Boublil staged Abbacadabra, one of the most bizarre projects I have ever seen ?

This show was broadcast in nine parts of 5 to 10 minutes during the Christmas holidays (and probably to dilute the bizarreness of the theme) the strangeness is quite simply that all the songs performed are only covers translated into French of the songs of the group ABBA, which makes this show the first musical of ABBA BEFORE mamma mia !!

To summarize the story :

On the day of their graduation, four children are put in detention by their principal. They are tasked with tidying up the school library in two hours. Deciding to start with fairy tales, they drop a stack of books, which causes fairy tale heroes ( Alice, Snow White, Cinderella , Aladdin ,Bluebeard , The Little Prince and Pinocchio) to appear one by one. The characters beg the children to free them from the influence of the evil witch Carabosse who has taken control of their world ...

Distribution :

Snow White : Fabienne Thibeault

The Little Prince : Daniel Balavoine

Pinocchio : Plastic Bertrand

Belle : Frida ( Anni-Frid Lyngstad )

Bluebeard / the math teacher : Maurice Barrier

Aladdin : Daniel Boublil

Cinderella : Françoise Pourcel-Boublil

Alice : Catherine Ferry

Carabosse / the principal : Marie-France Roussel

The Children : Stéphane Le Navelan, Stéphane Boublil, Clémentine Autain, Emmanuelle Pailly and Les Poppys as backing singers

Apart from Daniel Balavoine and Fabienne Thibeault, no other artists present here have ever played (and will never play again) in a musical

( I would like to apologize for the quality which is just disastrous )

if you want to see this strangeness in its entirety, the link below is a playlist with all the episodes :

Anecdotes :

the idea of ​​mixing the universe of ABBA and fairy tales started from a simple joke made by the Boublil brothers, they had phonetically translated the title money money money as '' mon nez mon nez mon nez " ( my nose , my nose , my nose)

This approximate translation will immediately remind them of Carlo Collodi's fairy tale Pinnochio !

...

It was initially the singer Carlos who was to play the role of Aladdin, but for a simple question of time conflict he was replaced by one of the Boublil brothers

Plastic Bertrand - Ça Plane Pour Moi 1977

"Ça Plane Pour Moi" is a 1977 song by Belgian musician Plastic Bertrand, written by Lou Deprijck and Yvan Lacomblez. It was conceived as a comic pastiche of the punk movement. The song has been covered by many artists, though the original recording was the most successful, reaching number 8 on the UK Singles Chart in mid-1978. The title is a French idiom that is best translated as "this works for me". The song is featured in plenty of films, such as Eurotrip, 127 Hours, and The Wolf of Wall Street. The music is also used in the song "Jet Boy, Jet Girl" by Elton Motello.

"Ça Plane Pour Moi" became a hit in several European countries, peaking at number 19 in Austria, number 12 in Sweden, number 11 in Bertrand's native Belgium, number 8 in the UK, number 6 in West Germany, number 4 in Ireland, number 2 in the Netherlands, number 7 in New Zealand and number 2 in Australia. It also topped the Swiss charts for one week and the French charts for two consecutive weeks. The single peaked at number 47 on the US Billboard Hot 100, and number 58 in Canada.
