It's a pre-death funeral. Common in certain regions of france. This one happens to be televised.

I can’t either… I looked it up and it looks like it is actually, at least somewhat, a thing. Can someone please confirm??

16

u/SeraphOfTheStag 2d ago edited 2d ago

Original video.

The description said its a performative homage to a famous singer near the end of his career/life but unclear if anyone knew he was dying.

19

u/Ziegelphilie 2d ago

unclear if anyone knew he was dying.

I mean, just look at his face

6

u/RoadClassic1303 2d ago

Look at his ears! They're the most enormous things I've ever seen, they take up 20% of his head. This man is clearly not well

5

u/TurtleBarn 1d ago

Is ear size directly related to mortality?

1

u/RoadClassic1303 1d ago

Here in Nepal, small ears are regularly associated with health and virility. While large ears are associated with rampant racism

2

u/TurtleBarn 1d ago

Huh. Interesting. Kind of ironic that biological factors beyond a person’s control are used as a basis for judging someone for judging people for biological factors beyond a person’s control.

u/spiderwebs86 10h ago

Nah he always looked that shitty.

1

u/SnooHobbies5684 1d ago

Looks like he was a longtime alcoholic and a five-pack-a-day smoker who had already had one heart attack, and this homage was in 1998, and his fatal heart attack was in 1991.

I'm 55 and it still trips me out when I find out about iconic people I've never heard of.

3

u/Phonemonkey2500 1d ago

Yeah, looks like he lit the new one with the butt of the old, continuously from eye-open to pass da fuk out from all the wine and cognac. Had an aunt like that. She was fantastic, drunk from dawn but the life of anything and she made all feel welcome. Stingah’s all day (Stinger; 3/4 Brandy, 1/4 crème de menthe over ice), and red wine all night. RIP Aunt Cathy!

u/DonkeyDong_64 1d ago

Spent all my life in France and never heard of « pre-death funeral ». This was just some kind of tribute to the artist.

1

u/Edenoide 1d ago

I mean, homages to sick/old artists are pre-death funerals somehow.

1

u/Turbulent-Weevil-910 1d ago

That's because you weren't in the correct region.

Some comments in the video claim kids are dressed like his brother who the dude killed drunk driving.

Idk

1

u/icarus928 1d ago

They're dressed like he always was, unshaven, smoking and drinking . It's a tribute to him.

u/mimo_s 1d ago

Yep, I read the other comments here as well as under the full video. I’m sharing something else I saw and confirming I don’t even know the guy.

u/Kim_Jong_Un_PornOnly 1d ago

Why do you say that? It's not like they recorded a song about it or something.

My favorite quote in that article is their denial that the song "Lemon Incest" is about either lemons or incest.

It's equally moving and hilarious. It's so fucking ridiculous it transcends irony. It is like the song for DeeVee in the Crimbus Special except this is also extraordinarily French.

u/mekilat 2d ago

This is Serge Gainsbourg. He was a very famous, popular, controversial singer and poet. Extremely inappropriate, irreverent. Very much someone who’d get cancelled non stop. But he was also considered a genius in his way. Because he had such a fuck you attitude, he would play the idea of being rejected and weird. So this homage of kids singing one of his songs and saying he’s loved is one of the few things that publicly moved him.

2

u/WorriedAd5024 2d ago

nah this is a demonstration of what happens to kids who see their dad smoke. they end up just like him.

u/voervanjohan 3d ago

Serge Gainsbourg. French artist/national hero because of his... well... down to earth take on things. If I remember correctly this was put up by a friend and producer of this show. She thought he could have a laugh about it, but he had become such a shell of a man, it only made him miserable to see himself being reflected this way. He died a couple of years later

41

u/Pighway 3d ago

He was literally moved to tears and continued performing/creating until he died. This is false
