Background notes
Archive material and source history
Patrick Hernandez is a French singer who had a disco hit with 'Born To Be Alive' in the late 1970s. He was born in Le Puy-en-Velay in 1949 and had been playing in bands since the 1960s before moving toward disco.
'Born To Be Alive' was recorded in 1978 with producer Jean Van Loo. The song became popular internationally, and Hernandez toured behind it. He also released other songs like 'Children Of Circumstance' and 'Just Pretending' around that time.
After the initial success, Hernandez faced personal difficulties that affected his career. He continued performing and recording into the 1980s and 1990s, though never with the same impact as that early hit.
