End of the adventure The Voice for Marilyne Naaman, the young Lebanese who can congratulate herself on a career rich in music and emotions. Last night, the singer and actress submitted to the test of super cross battles, the last qualifying stage for the semi-final of the 12th season of TF1 telecrochet. For the occasion, Marilyne has chosen to reinterpret Dalida’s hit, Die on stage, standing on a piano, repeating the refrain with lyrics she wrote in Arabic. Hailed by the jury and her coach Zazie, her performance earned her warm applause from the public, but who ultimately chose to keep Hanna, a talent from another team, for the rest of the competition. “I have absolutely no regrets and I am very grateful to have been able to work with two different coaches, Zazie and Vianney, confides Marilyne. I had the chance to introduce myself and express myself on a very big stage. Many Lebanese and French were able to discover me through this show, and I managed to meet an audience that appreciates what I do and who will understand my music later. »
For this stage of the super cross battles, Mika, the show’s emblematic ex-coach, was specially invited to join the jury to judge the talents and contribute 10 percent to the public vote. “The presence of Mika, a Lebanese coach who can perfectly understand my oriental influences, added additional pressure, explains Marilyne. In fact, during my preparation phase for this test, I came across a recent photo of him by chance, where he was covered in fake tattoos and standing on a piano, as I was regarding to do to remind the inclination suicide of Dalida. It looked like a sign of fate. This choice succeeded in convincing Mika. He gave his 10 percent to Marilyne, however, considering that it was not at all wise to use Dalida for this kind of program, even if the candidate managed to propose a version specific to her, even if it meant forgetting the original.
“I know it’s not easy to sing Dalida, adds Marilyne. When we pass the stages of a competition like The Voice, we try to present something new at each passage and we start first with the songs we like. But at this stage, I mainly wanted to highlight the interpretation. This song really represented my identity, my journey, and I was lucky to be supported by Zazie in my choices. She did a lot to convince the production, because she understood that I didn’t just want to sing but that I had something to say. The choice to use a chorus in Arabic was certainly risky, but it represented my identity which was present throughout the adventure and my universe which there was no point in distorting. »
A journey that makes you grow
Indeed, Marilyne Naaman had embarked on the adventure on an emblematic title by Serge Lama, I am sick, with lyrics in French and Arabic, which turned the chairs of the four coaches over. Joining the Vianney team, she faced a young Tunisian on Last Dance, a title with oriental sounds, during the battles stage. Vianney chose to continue the adventure with her competitor, but Marilyne was then fished out by Zazie, to be finally acclaimed by the public during the cross battles test, on the title She, you love her, also taken up with an oriental flair. “Wherever I go, I will have this oriental way of singing, believes Marilyne Naaman. That’s how I sing and I don’t want to be limited by an arrangement or by a language. In music, it is the message that prevails, the emotion that goes beyond languages and cultures. And to add: “I really grew up in this competition and I learned a lot. For example, I remember being very stressed on Elle, tu l’aime, at the start of the song. I got off to a bad start, but immediately recovered. During my last visit, I no longer thought regarding these details. It doesn’t matter if I miss a note. The important thing is that I feel the song to reach the audience. It’s my only way. »

Today, I don’t know exactly what doors The Voice will open for me, but this adventure reassured me in my choices and confirmed to me that I was on the right track. For the moment, I would especially like to say a big thank you to people, those who have just met me and those who were there long before, because thanks to them I lived an extraordinary and challenging experience. »
