The man speaks about the policy 

NC: In Italy, one is very committed, politically. There is a political culture, in Italy. Perhaps more than on our premises, in France.

AB: Certainly, yes. Listen, me I am engaged like citizen, I want to say, I do not occupy myself badly, I am an even administrator, in the small municipality where I live.

NC: And doesn't the fact of being listened, in almost all the countries of Europe, that give desire, therefore, for conveying two three important ideas?

AB: One can convey things. Ah yes! And me I did it not badly once. I collaborated with the UNICEF, for a whole album and a whole European round. I work much with, for example, GREENPEACE, but on concrete things. Where I know perfectly that the solution is not in my song. But I want to say, the song is always... a means. Ca can possibly be the small trick which goes to the bomb that you light. The wick, here.

NC: And when you sang with the festival of humanity? There are political parties for which you would not sing?

AB: Yes. But me I even sang in front of the pope. I.e., there are occasions, that... Me I say it straightforwardly, when I sang with the orchestra of santa cecilia in Rome in front of the pope, I said, and even to him I said it, even if that had been the Dalai Lama, I would have been there. Because I wanted to sing with the orchestra of cent-vingts people!!!

 NC: You who you stroll in Europe, how it goes, the French song? Already in Italy, which you know well!

AB: The song is always the reflection from what occurs.

NC: For example, which occurs in this moment to France, the quotats, this species of defense, like that, this political engagement, of the policies compared to the song...

AB: There it is a thing which I would be too surface.

NC: And on your premise, in Italy, that exists?

AB: Not, that does not exist. Me I make only one example which seems to me interesting, i.e.: the Italian cinema, for which I worked much, and with largest, is dying. **time-out** then, say that I know not if it be because it there have not some talent, but if I submit the relationship with it that it himself be occur with J.LANG, in France, therefore that they have make something for the cinema French, the cinema French be the only, in this moment, in Europe, which go.
