About Claude Barzotti

Barzotti, whose real first name was Francesco, was born in Belgium, but raised in the Sicilian town of Villarosa. Barzotti moved back to Belgium at the age of 18, settling in the town of Court-Saint-Étienne. Barzotti began his musical career in France in 1981 with his song "Madame," which sold 400,000 copies. However, later in the year, Barzotti found widespread success with his song "Le Rital," which propelled him to household-name status.
