“I am always very happy to speak to the“ Figaro ”,”
says Marianne Faithfull in her recognizable voice over the phone.
Talking to this legend is a little miracle.
After surviving the excesses of the sixties, a strong flirtation with heroin and defeating cancer, Marianne triumphed over Covid last year.
This allowed her to complete the album of poems that she had been planning to burn for a long time.
A small wonder of grace and sensitivity, well in the manner of this aristocrat of rock'n'roll.
LE FIGARO.
- How are you, dear Marianne?
Marianne FAITHFULL.

But today is a very beautiful day.
A very good friend of mine came to visit me.
He grabbed my dear Martin guitar, and I practiced singing with him.
I do it at least once a week, sometimes more.
