"At the hospital they didn't have names — it was baby A and baby B," Céline explained. "The first name that popped into my head was Nelson, because we had the privilege of meeting with Mr. Nelson Mandela."

"Baby B needed to be another hero. We thought of somebody who had an amazing impact on both of our lives. His name is Eddy Marnay. Eddy wrote my first five French albums."
