“Salut à vous tous les zazous
Paroles de Salut à toi des Bérurier noir
Salut à la jeune garde rouge
Salut à toi le peuple corse
Salut aux filles du Crazy Horse
Salut à toi la vache qui rit
Salut à Laurel et Hardy
Salut à toi peuple nomade”
Salut à toi by Bérurier noir is a hymn to all the rebels of all countries, the outsiders, the marginalized and all the people rejected by the dominant classes.
More than five minutes of exhilaration
In a trance when the group Bérurier noir sings this modern partisan song, Salut à toi is a long enumeration of more than five minutes. Besides, on stage, when the band plays it, the versions can differ.
Just look at the lyrics to discover the more than one hundred people for whom the French punk band wants to pay tribute. From nomadic peoples to Rantanplan, passing by the Khmers, the Tunisians, the Chileans, the Malians, the Chtimis, the handicapped, the communists or the anarchists.
This long litany does not forget France and more particularly the “Filles du Crazy Horse”. Lightly dressed, these dancers make the beautiful days of this famous cabaret of the 8th district of Paris. A mischievous wink from the Beru, contrasting with the different peoples mentioned. A place that the band Mötley Crue celebrated in their album Girls Girls Girls, three years before Bérurier noir.
Between mass unemployment and the National Front at its highest
In 1985, Bérurier noir decided to create Salut à toi in a complicated context in France. Unemployment is rising sharply and National Front scores are soaring. The far-right party obtained 10.95% in the European elections the previous year.
It is the occasion for the punk group to reaffirm its attachment to the difference, to the human being in struggle and precarious, far from the nauseating ideas of the political party.
Each dancer at Crazy Horse owns about fifteen shoes for the show.
Crazy Horse Paris
The Crazy Horse is a Parisian cabaret created in 1951 by Alain Bernardin.
Wanting to import American strip-tease shows, Alain Bernardin opened the Crazy Horse in 1951.
Each table is composed of cabaret numbers performed by undressed dancers. Each of them is given a stage name. The most famous is Lova Moor, wife of Alain Bernardin.
Celebrity shows have been performed at the Crazy Horse, for example with Dita Von Teese, Arielle Dombale or Conchita Wurst.
