The big farewell
Martine in 1981. She was only 18 and already a smash hit smiled at her thanks to Luc Plamondon, who insisted on seeing her audition. The pretty Cristal from the rock opera Starmania received her first Félix Award at the Adisq Gala, the revelation of the year, even if she didn’t have an album to her credit.
top of the charts
By the 1980s, Martine St-Clair Métropolis had sung on the stages of Quebec and France, rubbing shoulders with the greats of the artistic world, and she was now performing her own songs, from number one to the charts, including Il ya de l ‘ amour dans l’ aria, which she almost turned down for fear of identifying too much with this lonely young woman of song.
A different era, a different look.
The shy young girl with the romantic looks had given way to a determined young woman, encouraged by her many successes such as There is love in the air and L’amour est mort, sung in a duet with Gilbert Bécaud. Under the protective wing of Luc Plamondon, she had quickly gone from unknown to star of the song.
Praised at 24
In 1986, from the hands of the popular animator Jean-Pierre Coallier, the singer received one of the four Félix she won at the Adisq Gala: Microsillon Pop of the Year (1985), 45 rpm, best-selling, Song of the Year for Tonight Love Is in Your Eyes and Actor of the Year. Despite everything, the young woman kept her feet on the ground.
Ninth album
Released the album All that I have in 2004. The 40-year-old woman, who dropped out of college as a young girl to become a nurse, continued on her chosen path. The job came to her from the age of 17 when she shyly took part in Cégep en spectacle.
