A song co-signed by Zazie (Un coeur qui cogne), her Eurovision 2021 hit with 55 million streams (Tout l'univers), a pop rhyme that Michel Berger (Pure) would not have denied, a melancholic English-language ballad (Midnight in Paris)... The thirteen tracks that make up Gjon's Tears' debut album, The Game, released this Friday, find their coherence in their diversity and singularity. "I wanted this record to be like a playlist," the artist told 20 Minutes.



"With The Whole Universe, people discovered a tender and epic side of me. I also wanted to show the other facets that constitute me, he continues. We find the duality between life and death, between nostalgia and melancholy. I want to be a firework of emotions and move people with these different themes and tones. »

"An experience that made me grow musically"

On May 13, Gjon's Tears will be on stage at the Café de la danse (Paris 11th). On the same evening, in Liverpool (United Kingdom), the Eurovision final will take place. This competition in which he finished third, for Switzerland, two years ago. A highlight that he tells 20 Minutes in the video above.

"It allowed me to know what I wanted to do, what artist I wanted to be," he explains. It's an experience that made me grow musically, artistically. And that allowed The Game to be the album it is.
