| Mister Heavenly – Pineapple Girl Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| Nick Thorburn as a dictator and Honus Honus as a little girl... How is it that it works so well ?! | |
| April March – Lunar Lake Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Here is my translation of this song : I like to go back home After a long trip The trees and fireflies Greet me in the dark I like to go back home After a long trip My sweetheart's smiles Seem electric to me I like to go back home After a long trip I take my little baby And bounce him on my knee I like to go back home After a long trip I take my oldest son And cradle him like a baby |

| April March – Attention Cherie Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| Right after singing "Attention chérie", she sings "le diable te suit" (meaning "the devil follows you"). | |
| Emmy the Great – Bad Things Coming, We Are Safe Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| An excellent song about feeling safe and strong when you're with the one you love. And a reference to Salomé and the Dance of the Seven Veils in the second verse. | |
| Little Joy – Evaporar Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Thanks for the lyrics AND the translation ! It seems to me a mystic reflection about time, with a brillant metaphor assimilating time with water. |

| St. Vincent – Paris Is Burning Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| As many said, I'm pretty sure there is an allusion to WWII, especially since there is a French film called "Paris brûle-t-il ?" (meaning "Is Paris burning ?") about the end of the war (and the end of the nazi Occupation in France). | |
| Stacey Kent – La Saison Des Pluies Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Another Gainsbourg's cover, about the end of a love affair. | |
| Stacey Kent – Samba Saravah Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
This song was written by Francis Lai, and was originally sung by Pierre Barouh. It appears in the film "A Man And A Woman". Once again, I must say that Stacey Kent has a near perfect french accent, and that her voice is wonderful. |

| Stacey Kent – Ces Petits Riens Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
This is a perfect cover of a Serge Gainsbourg's song, and Stacey Kent has a good french accent. I couldn't really translate it, as it's full of play on words (like a lot of Gainsbourg's songs actually), but it's about a man who was in love with a cruel woman, who didn't care about him, so now he's fed up with her and leave her. |

| Robots in Disguise – Voodoo Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| The french bit isn't grammatically correct, but it means something like 'magical as it is, I write your name this time'. | |
| Mark Lanegan – Methamphetamine Blues Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Bruiseviolet -> I think it's rather Molly McGuire singing. | |
| Justice – DVNO Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| And there's a club in Aix-en-Provence (near Marseilles) called "DVNO". | |
| Billie Holiday – Twenty-Four Hours a Day Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
This may be the sweetest song ever. Oh and, everybody noticed it was about love and how we're all the same when we're into. |
