Goldman Honors Veterans, Reaffirms Commitment to Wounded Warriors
PARIS – Jean-jacques Goldman, the celebrated French singer-songwriter, publicly expressed his gratitude to the french armies in a letter released on 2025/11/11, underscoring the importance of remembering those wounded in service. The message arrives following the April unveiling of his song, “We will be ther,” now designated the official anthem of Bleuet de France.
GoldmanS renewed focus on veterans comes as France prepares to observe Armistice Day, a moment for national reflection on sacrifice and remembrance. the artist’s dedication extends beyond musical tribute; his composition directly supports Bleuet de France, a foundation providing aid to war wounded, surviving spouses, and victims of terrorism. This support is particularly poignant given the ongoing global conflicts, which, as Goldman noted, “remind us dramatically every day” of the costs of war.
The 73-year-old Goldman, who penned the annual “Restos song” for Les enfoirés for three decades before stepping down in 2016, composed “We will be there” as a direct homage to those physically and emotionally scarred by conflict. throughout a career spanning forty years and yielding over 30 million album and single sales, Goldman has remained a beloved figure in France, known for enduring hits like “I give you” and “To our failed actions.”
Bleuet de France provides crucial assistance to those impacted by war, offering support to veterans and their families navigating the challenges of recovery and loss. further details on Goldman’s tribute and the foundation’s work can be found at http://www.lefigaro.fr/musique/on-sera-la-les-coulisses-de-l-hommage-de-jean-jacques-goldman-aux-blesses-de-guerre-20250328.
