Tourne-toi
(Non) contre moi
Non, pas comme ça (et danse)
La décadanse
Oui, c'est bien
Bouge tes reins
Lentement
Devant les miens

Reste là
Derrière moi
Balance
La décadanse
Que tes mains
Frôlent mes seins
Et mon cœur
Qui est le tien

Mon amour
De toujours
Patience
La décadanse
Sous mes doigts
T'emmènera
Vers de lointains
Au-delàs

Des eaux troubles
Soudain troublent
Mes sens
La décadanse
M'a perdue
Ah, tu me tues
Mon amour
Dis, m'aimes-tu?

Je t'aimais
Déjà, mais
Nuance
La décadanse
Plus encore
Que notre mort
Lie nos âmes
Et nos corps

Dieu, pardonnez nos
Offenses
La décadanse
A bercé
Nos corps blessés
Et nos âmes égarées

Dieu
Pardonnez nos offenses
La décadanse
A bercé
Nos corps blasés
Et nos âmes égarées

    jane and serge... such a sexy song. i used to hear it all the time at my parents' parties when i was growing up. it was the soundtrack to many a late-night afterparty at my house as well. dancing as a both substitute and prelude to sex... Que tes mains Frôlent mes seins Et mon coeur Qui est le tien

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
