The song "Confidential” was released in 1985 in the album “Not approved“. Ten days after the death of Daniel Balavoine (January 14, 1986), Jean-Jacques Goldman is a guest on the show Champs-Elysees de Michael Druker. He had to sing “I give you” but given the circumstances Jean-Jacques Goldman will prefer to interpret "Confidential" which he dedicates to his friend. The title will become a tribute song to the late singer.
Lyrics
I just wanted to tell you
That your face and your smile
Will stay close to me, on my way
Tell you it was for real
Everything we said, everything we did
That it wasn't fake, that it was good
Above all, you must never regret
Even if it hurts, it's won
All these moments, all these same mornings
I'm not going to tell you that you shouldn't cry
There's really nothing to deprive yourself of
And everything we didn't miss was worth it
Maybe we'll meet again
Maybe maybe not
But know that down here, I am here
It will remain like a light
Who will keep me warm in my winters
A little fire from you that never goes out
