i like this song very much and i think that La Vie En rose means life in Roses since the "s" is not pronounsed in french thats why it sounds as "rose". this song is about two lovers that are deeply in love and holding each other turns into something so wonderful that even ordinary words turn into a beautiful song of love.
Mmm I think that "La vie en rose" should be translated as "the life in pink" (yeah, it sounds awful). This is a french expression that is used to describe when you're happy and feel optimistic with life in general. There's also the expression "La vie en noir" which is the opposite: pesimistic, when you're down. As you can see, French language is pure poetry.
my absolute favorite louis song and on my top five songs ever list which doesn't really exist. just about love and what this woman does to him.
i think la vie en rose means "the pink life"
