David Hallyday was ostensibly foreordained for a vocation in music; his parents were French rock candy legend Johnny Hallyday and pop chanteuse Sylvie Vartan, France's "it" couple during the swing '60s. Hallyday was born David Smet (his father's veridical name) on August 14, 1966, in Boulogne-Billancourt. From the years of four, he split his time 'tween France and the United States, growth up bilingualist and finally enrolling in schooling in California. As a teenager, he played in an amateur john Rock & roll band, and in 1979 played drums behindhand his founder for the first time in public. His stepfather, Tony Scotti, owned the Scotti Bros. label, and Hallyday went to work for him after finishing schooling. He too splattered in acting, and won the lead function in the music-themed comedy He's My Girl in 1987, which allowed him the prospect to disk some of his original material. His kickoff album, the English-language True Cool, was released in 1988 and sold closely a million copies worldwide. The reexamination, Stone 'n' Heart, appeared in 1990 and gave him his only American graph single, "Ooh La La."Still singing in English, Hallyday had even to do a dent in the French mart. He issued his kickoff French-language individual, "Heros," in 1993, just then returned to English for his future album, a 1994 collaboration with the backing grouping Blind Fish called Pain and Pride. Another financial support band, Novocaine, was assembled for a 1997 album of the same make, which was issued only in the United States to highly softened response. In 1999, Hallyday collaborated with his father on the album Panax quinquefolius Pour Sang, writing all the music on the phonograph recording. That same year, Hallyday in conclusion released his low all-French album, Un Paradis/Un Enfer, and had his kickoff major success in France. Hits like "Stream Toi" and "Tu Ne M'as Pas Laisse le Temps" boosted the album's gross sales, and he was showered with medicine awards come year's end. He took a detour into automobile racing and won the GT championship in 2001. In the summer of 2002, he returned to medicine with the release of his minute all-French album, Révélation.
