 Cela vaut-il la peine ? December 2, 2007
Ecouter Pop satori vingt ans apres, est-ce vraiment une bonne idee ? Bien sur, l'instrumentation synthetique sautillante qui rappelle furieusement Indochine (mais aussi plus generalement l'epoque : on retrouve les memes tics sur les deux premiers albums de Whitney Houston par exemple) n'est pas le point fort de ce disque et il n'est pas sur qu'elle passe la rampe. Les textes ne sont guere mieux. Restent les bonus ? Quelques versions longues (mais pas celle de Tombe pour la France ni celle d'Epaule tattoo de 8 minutes), quelques remixes actualises (mais le remix de W. Orbit d'Epaule tattoo a ete raccourci), quelques extraits de concerts, des maquettes (dites demo avec un accent mot qui n'est ni du francais, ni de l'anglais, pour faire plus chic ?), bref, 27 titres en plus ou l'on voit un traditionnel chanteur de varietes francais voulant a tout prix ne pas faire varietes. Mais le rock fait trop plaque, l'electro donne des resultats ennuyeux, il ferait mieux de ne pas chanter en anglais car son accent et sa maniere francaise de syllaber sont de serieux ecueils... Que reste-t-il donc ? Son charme, son timbre de voix, Duello al sole en italien (entreprise rafraichissante ou on le voit enfin sortir de l'a-plat-ventrisme face aux Anglo-Saxons), quelques moments elegants epars. Mais en fait ce n'est pas dans cet album que Daho transcende la platitude de ses textes et le conformisme de sa musique, ce qui est dommage car Le grand sommeil donnait l'impression qu'il pouvait le faire.
 the best French techno-pop August 27, 2001

I first knew about Etienne Daho when I heard him sing Quelq Un Qui m'Ressemble together with Sylvie Vartan and Francoise Hardy in the Sylvie Vartan's CD "Irresistiblement Sylvie". I got inmediately interested in the song and in his voice. Since then I've bought 5 CDs by Daho. I can say he's the best to perform French techno-pop (as in this CD), his voice sounds also very nice in beautiful ballads that appear most of all in other, more recent, CDs as Paris Ailleurs or Corps et Armes. I enjoy that in all of them the songs are fully orchestrated and have fine arrangements.

Maybe the best pop record of french music history. With 'Pop Satori' ('satori' is the zen word for 'nirvana') Etienne Daho has integrated the classic french wit for songs with extraordinary and danceable melodies. Sweet and sour, inteligent and fashionable, 'Pop Satori' is one of the best 80s records worldwide!
