Pop corn - Antoine

Born as Pierre Antoine Muraccioli on 23 January 1945 in Toamasina, Madagascar, Antoine is a French singer, and also a sailor and adventurer, writer, photographer, and filmmaker. He was very popular in the Sixties and Seventies. In 1972 he released this single, a vocal version of Gershon Kingsley's fabulous composition 'Popcorn', with lyrics he wrote himself.  

He stopped his musical career to travel around the world. Antoine published the first book of his adventures, Globedrifter (French: Globe Flotteur) in 1977; several more have followed, including his book on distance navigation Setting Sail (French: Mettre les Voiles).
