Yvonne is the first singer in the Middle East who was accredited, by Charles Aznavour personally, the right to reproduce his song
“Comme Ils Disent” with an oriental twist!
Charles Aznavour
International Legend Artist
“I’m always happy to hear young artists interpret my songs and what is interesting for me is when they perform it differently without trying to copy my version.
That is what Yvonne Hashem did with her own personal heartfelt interpretation of
"Comme ils disent".
Liza Minnelli has been singing “What makes a man” (English version of the song) on stage for over 15 years but Yvonne Hashem is the first female artist who has recorded and released this song in French.”
