Manon Lisa

in agreement with W Live 1 January 2025. Manon Lisa announces to her friends that music is over for her. Yet it's her whole life. From her rock band in the south at 16 to the Parisian studios, where she wrote and composed for Céline Dion, Maëlle or The Avener for several years.

Becoming a mother in 2023 changed everything. Creating for others no longer made sense, to the point of wanting to stop everything. But one April morning in 2025, the pen itched. She embarked on a rewrite of Youssoupha's Dieu est grande.

He speaks to his daughter, she chooses to speak to her son. How to raise a little boy in 2025? How to make him understand that his sensitivity matters, that all women count on him? She posts the video without a second thought.

The views pile up and Youssoupha himself praises the lyrics. So, throughout the year, Manon Lisa rewrites iconic songs with a feminist and committed angle: harassment, fascism, ecology, grief… Her community reaches 750,000 followers.

Among these texts, Le Petit Pêcheur particularly resonates: an ode to idleness, 50 million views in a few months. It's the last song her father listens to before he dies. He, usually so reserved, tells her he loves this text, that it has meaning. That she must go for it.

So Manon Lisa releases Le Petit Pêcheur on 11 February 2026. The public's response is immediate and heralds a future full of songs, concerts and encounters.
