Herbert Leonard

Herbert Léonard (French pronunciation: [ɛʁbɛʁ leɔnaʁ]; 25 February 1945 – 2 March 2025), born Hubert Lœnhard, was a French entertainer and historian, who was principally known as a singer. He was also a specialist of Russian airplanes from World War II. His first success "Quelque chose tient mon cœur" (Somethings Got A Hold of My Heart) opened the doors of the hit-parade to him in 1968. His 1982 album Ça donne envie d'aimer and the song "Amoureux fous" was done in a duo with Julie Pietri, perpetuating his image as a crooner. Léonard died from lung cancer in Fontainebleau on 2 March 2025, five days after his 80th birthday.
