INTERVIEW Tom Frager (finally) reveals who Lady Melody, muse of his biggest hit, really is

Tom Frager’s hit, Lady Melody, is getting a makeover with a brand new version accompanied by Philippine Lavrey. A nostalgic moment that Voici wanted to share with the blue-eyed surfer.

“She’s in my head, she never leaves me.” Do these words remind you of something? Of course Lady Melody, the song by Tom Frager, the singer with 4 albums and tours all over the world. “It’s a song that spans generations. It’s the song that made me famous, even though I’ve done a lot of other things on the side. But that we generally know less. For Lady Melody’s 15th anniversary, I thought it would be nice to revisit it since a lot of people have covered it.”

And it is the promising Philippine Lavrey who was chosen to share this hit. But who is Lady Melody? “I thought the answer was in the song, explains Tom Frager. But I see that it continues to get people talking. It makes me smile. Lady Melody is simply music. The genesis of this song is that one day, I was listening to a piece of reggea that I really liked by an English group. And I said to a friend: ‘I should write a song to say how much I like this song.'”

Hugue Aufray, his great friend

Tom Frager has met many fellow singers in his career. And his most beautiful is surely Hugues Aufray. “He is a charming gentleman, who is over 90 years old and who continues the scenes, says Tom, dazzled by this force of nature. We became friends. We call each other every now and then. And funny enough, I learned to play guitar to one of his songs when I was 8. Stewball.” W followerhave of life surfers, of which he is one, Tom confides that the most beautiful paradise for him, “It’s a world where people stop hitting each other.” Word of the Gospel.
