MUSIC

The thread that has run through most of my life.

My musical journey

My musical journey

I started singing in my first band, SKY, when I was only 13 years old in Magog, Québec.

At 18, I left Magog for Montreal with a fairly simple plan: I was going to become a rock star.

Well... that was the plan.

Magog · The beginning

SKY → Quartz → The Rats

I began singing at 13 in Magog. SKY was followed by Quartz, and by 15 I was singing with The Rats.

Those early bands gave me the first taste of the life I wanted. By 18, I was ready to leave home and find out how far music could take me.

02

Montreal · The club years

Murder → Syhon

I arrived in Montreal knowing virtually no one. Murder became my first band in the city, followed by Syhon, where I began touring the major Quebec club circuit as a lead singer.

I deliberately chose the clubs as my school. Night after night, in front of real audiences, I learned how to entertain, communicate and become a performer.

1994 onward · Becoming professional

Television & Productions

Joining the singer ensemble on Beau et chaud in 1994 changed the direction of my career. I was suddenly learning new styles of music, working in front of cameras and performing in live and recorded television.

A management agreement followed, opening the door to backing vocals, television appearances and productions including Du Rock à l'Opéra, Cinémashow and Danse Sing.

04

Paris · 2002

Cindy

In 2002, I went to Paris to perform in Luc Plamondon's musical Cindy.

That experience changed me. Working with Luc helped me understand that singing was not simply about the notes. A singer could inhabit a lyric, interpret it and give it life. Acting became part of the process too.

I came away from Paris feeling that I had crossed an important threshold as an artist.

Stepping away

Silence

After years of performing, I eventually stopped singing altogether. Music had defined so much of my life that walking away from it created a very different chapter.

I did not know then whether I would ever return to a microphone.

The return

Back to the microphone

Around 2020, I formed the Judas Priest Experience as a tribute to one of the singers who had influenced me enormously when I was younger: Rob Halford.

From there came The Stormbringer and Band of Brothers. What began as a return to performing eventually led me back to something I had not expected — creating original music again.

Today

Bujold Labadie Blouin

Today I am part of Bujold Labadie Blouin, creating original melodic and neo-classical metal with Roland Bujold and Russel Labadie.

Our first album, Final War, was co-produced and mixed with Max Norman. A second album is in progress, and work on a third has already begun.

After everything music has taken me through — clubs, television, Paris, years away and a return — I am still discovering where this road can lead.

01The Final WarOpen lyrics

Stay with me
No one else could ever set the world alight
Burn with me
Radiate the soul of RA and all its might

Agonize, Terrorize
Simple words that cater death
Paralyze, Bestialize
Out of touch, out of breath

The final war is raging, burning
The final war is on the line
The final war is raging, burning
Final sacrifice

Exorcize, Emblemize
Cleanse us all from sudden death
Eternalize, Immortalize
Satisfy and quench from wealth

The final war is raging, burning
The final war is on the line
The final war is raging, burning
Final sacrifice

-Guitar Solo-

The final war is raging, burning
The final war is on the line
The final war is raging, burning
Final sacrifice

02Heavy Metal ThunderOpen lyrics

Life will never be the same
Once you cross the veil of shame
No one else here is to blame
In this you ponder, it makes you wonder

Ear splitting
Mind blowing
Bolt of lightning
Electrifying

Aaaaaaaah!
Aaaaaaaah!
Aaaaaaaah!
Heavy metal thunder!

Shockwaves sent from the pits of hell
The power grows, in this we dwell

Ear splitting
Mind blowing
Bolt of lightning
Electrifying

United forever
This thunder sets us free
Together
Fearmonger
Pure brute energy
Love hater take shelter
No one will hear your plea
Fire breather
Blood spitter
We pledge eternity

Rock n roll is in our soul
It is in this we lose control

-Guitar Solo-

United forever
This thunder sets us free
Together
Fearmonger
Pure brute energy
Love hater take shelter
No one will hear your plea
Fire breather
Blood spitter
We pledge eternity

Aaaaaaaah!
Aaaaaaaah!
Aaaaaaaah!
Heavy metal thunder!

03You're All You NeedOpen lyrics

Never before have you wished to close the door
Nothing will remain when drawing in the sand
Melting in the rain are the dreams of wonderland

Dare to be
The sign
The light

And you’re all you need
To sail across the sea
To climb the tallest tree
To overcome tomorrow
You’re all you need
You possess the master key
Golden blood you’ll bleed
You glorify the rainbow

Heaven seems so far away
When you choose to fade away
Trying to hide the pain but the memory remains
Under a full lit moon shine the words of this tune

Dare to be
The sign
The light

And you’re all you need
To sail across the sea
To climb the tallest tree
To overcome tomorrow
You’re all you need
You possess the master key
Golden blood you’ll bleed
You glorify the rainbow

-Orchestra-

You’re all you need
To sail across the sea
To climb the tallest tree
To overcome tomorrow
You’re all you need
You possess the master key
Golden blood you’ll bleed
You glorify the rainbow

-Guitar Solo-

Oooh!

04Paradise Is LostOpen lyrics

My domination is so weary
When my enemies are all dead
Damnation is what you’ll get from me
Retribution won’t set you free

Paradise is lost without the one who can share
Hatred has a cost and its living in despair
Building the walls
Blockade the minds
Commit to my blindness
Paradise is lost without the ones that you care

God of thunder
I am over you
No surrender I will blast through
There is no war if there’s no one left to die
Indignation!
Gods must comply

Paradise is lost without the ones who can share
Hatred has a cost and its living in despair
Building the walls
Blockade the minds
Submit to my madness
Paradise is lost without the ones that you care

-Solo-

Alienation is what this feels to me
Desecration, if darkness is what I breed
Opened my eyes, now I see, truth has set me free
Resurrection is what I give to thee

Paradise is lost without the ones who can share
Hatred has a cost and its living in despair
Building the walls
Blockade the minds
Commit to my blindness
Paradise is lost without the ones that you care

05WrathOpen lyrics

They’ll never understand
These scriptures born from man
Prophets
Demigods
They praise against all odds
On their knees
Their hearts will freeze
Steal away their will to be
A kingdom you’ll now see

Bow your head to me
No longer disagree
Kiss the hand of misery
Glory all to me
Through blinding words you’ll see
I am your sacred deity
Give your love to me
I’ll crush your entity
You’ll worship only me
Sheeps you are to me
Sheeps you long to be
Plagiarizing God is so easy!

Through time they’re now obsessed
To praise without rest
In stone my words they see
Blinded slaves filled with glee
On their knees
Their soul will freeze
And those who deny me
Have the mark of divinity

Bow your head to me
No longer disagree
Kiss the hand of misery
Glory all to me
Through blinding words you’ll see
I am your sacred deity
Give your love to me
I’ll crush your entity
You’ll worship only me
Sheeps you are to me
Sheeps you long to be
Plagiarizing God is so easy!

-Guitar Solo-

Bow your head to me
No longer disagree
Kiss the hand of misery
Glory all to me
Through blinding words you’ll see
I am your sacred deity

-Keyboard Solo-

I’m your wrath!

06I Am The FireOpen lyrics

I am the bearer of your light tonight
Sins have been forsaken, blessed be this might
Fallen angels spewed from underground
Fables and immortals lose their cherished crown

I am the fire
I will inspire

Symbols of deletion flicker hopes of death
Antagonizing scriptures from the mouth of Seth
Burning temples, deceiving house of lies
Portals of distortion, they shall not survive

I am the fire
I will inspire
I am the fire
I will inspire

-Guitar Solo-

Arrows sent from heaven spread eternal sight
Blades of wrath and fury state a fact of blight
Trample the crucible of never-ending night
Deterrent of heresy is why I came to be

I am the fire
I will inspire
I am the fire
I will inspire
I am the fire

07Angel WingsOpen lyrics

Understand, my breath has left me
From this world, my touch is empty
As I stand, I fall, I crumble
In the air, I feel so humble

In this passage of time
Where the sky opens up its doors
Save for me my love
One last kiss sent above

Angel wings
Are never closed…
Never!
When angels sing to you

I ascend to this place of wonder
Free from ill, from scorn and thunder

Say to me now…
“Until we meet again!”

Angel wings
Are never closed…
Never!
When angels sing to you
Angel wings
Are never closed…
Never!
When angels sing to you

-Guitar Solo-

Angel wings
Are never closed…
Never!
When angels sing to you
Angel wings
Are never closed…
Never!
When angels sing to you
Angel wings
Are never closed…
Never!
When angels sing to you

08The Power of GodsOpen lyrics

When you don’t know what to do
But you get it together
That’s when the light shines on you
You can storm the weather

Showing all the world to see
You ain’t about to let yourself be beat
You’ll everlast!

You know better than to wither
Only to find yourself better
It’s only common sense
The power of Gods
You possess

You know now where to look
Inside is the treasure

Showing all the world to see
You ain’t about to let yourself be beat
You’ll everlast!

You know better than to wither
Only to find yourself better
It’s only common sense
The power of Gods
You possess

-Guitar Solo-

You know better than to wither
Only to find yourself better
It’s only common sense
The power of Gods
You possess
It’s only common sense
The power of Gods
You possess

09Save MeOpen lyrics

So many ways to carry on
Why should we do this all alone

Save me
I'm drowning in my dream
One forever
Bound together
Be with me

As you invade my mind
I'm with you all the time
This painting we now see
You and me

Save me
I'm drowning in my dream
Bound together
Lost forever
Be with me
Carry me
I'm falling on my knees
Blessed be this sanctuary
Come to me

-Guitar Solo-

Save me
I'm drowning in my dream
One forever
Bound together
Be with me
Carry me
I'm falling on my knees
Blessed be this sanctuary
Come to me
Save me
I'm drowning in my dream
Bound together
Lost forever
Be with me

01Hell IsOpen lyrics

Hell is your heaven
God of war, God of pain
You make me suffer again and again
Tellin’ lies you fornicate with truth
Spreading death, you disavow our youth

You’ll never see the light
This darkness you cannot fight
‘Cause
Hell is your heaven
Hell is your heaven

Raping minds, tears of blood
Crippling terror, you are not to judge
There is no future in sorrow and decay
My time has come now to obliterate my prey

You’ll never see the light
This darkness you cannot fight
I know this realm wasn’t meant to be
I know this world will someday be set free

Hell is your heaven
Hell is your heaven

-SOLO-

It’s time to end now
This lunacy, this insanity
And pledge an oath to decency
Hand in hand now we’ll walk tall, never bow
End this nightmare to elevate us all!

Hell is…heaven
Hell is your heaven
Hell is your heaven

02Angel DustOpen lyrics

ALL YOU WANT IS MY DESIRE
SLAVE TO YOUR WORDS OF FIRE
YOUR MORTAL STANCE IS MADE OF STEEL
AT YOUR FEET YOU MAKE EVERYONE KNEEL

RISE FROM THE ASHES OF GOLD
MESSIAH HERE TO STEAL YOUR SOUL

FROM DISTANT PAST YOU LIVE ON
FROM ANGEL DUST YOU HAVE SPAWNED
NO ONE KNOWS YOUR TRUE FAITH
YOU ARE A MENTAL STATE OF WRAITH

RISE FROM THE ASHES OF GOLD (AAAAAAAAAH!)
MESSIAH HERE TO STEAL YOUR SOUL (AAAAAAAAAH!)

THE GODS OF ATLANTIS WILL NEVER SUBSIDE
A NEW DAWN OF CREATION WILL BRING US THIS PRIDE
SAIL ON FOREVER ON THE SEVEN SEAS OF RHYE
MAY THIS VENTURE BE WRITTEN IN THE SKY

03Burning BridgesOpen lyrics

I was born with nothin' to lose
I'm missin, a tooth
I got holes in my shoes
I've been up all night
And I'm ready to fight
I never stand in line
I never do what's right
I'm a mean fuck
I'm a down on my luck
I'll cut you down to size
And make you realize
Hard booze Tattoos
My life ain't nothin' but troublesome blues

Burning bridges
And I spit on you!

I don't care who you are
I don't care what you need
I got crazy fingers
That can make you bleed
I got the will to make you plead
If i got you in my sights
You know I,ll turn out the lights
I'm a nightmare
And you better not dare
Upon your lips you will taste my fist

Burning bridges
And I spit on you!

04How Many TimesOpen lyrics

You made me believe I’m dead
Playing inside my head
Going down that rabbit hole
I feel I lost control

Oh! How many times
You said you’d be there
And fled me like a disease
How many times
You blessed me with a heart left to freeze
How many times
Your promises were empty and dry
Oh! How many times
You made me feel like a stranger in the night

You bleed me with words of stone
You tear me with eyes unknown
Never will you be
This thing you proclaim to be

Oh! How many times
You said you’d be there
And fled me like a disease
How many times
You blessed me with a heart left to freeze
How many times
Your promises were empty and dry
Oh! How many times
You left me in the night!

05SpiritsOpen lyrics

Alright! Alright!
Come here baby and let’s dim down the lights
I don’t care! I don’t care!
As long as you can make it through the night

Take me to your river baby
Drown me in your love
Spread your wings honey to the heavens above
Little did I know
You were an angel in disguise
I’m the one begging much to my surprise

No way! No way!
Did I foresee that I was going to pay
In deep! Too deep!
I lost my soul and it’s hers to keep

-Chorus-

Lost in the madness of my hell
Rolling thunder, magic spell
This confusion rules my mind
Here, ‘til the end of time
End of time

Take me to your river baby
Drown me in your love

Spread your wings honey
To the heavens above
