This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Hé! petite fille tu bois de l'eau et tu es saoule
Là où tu te noies tu as beau avoir pied tu coules
Au port
Hé! petite folle! c'est pas la brasse c'est le crawl
Pour la traversée il t'aurait fallu des épaules
Du corps
Mais lui c'est différent, il est né sur l'océan,
C'est un grand capitaine, un amant monument,
Tu t'es perdue dedans
Hé! petite fille! on est jamais deux à partir
Y en a toujours un pour larguer l'autre pour languir
Au port
Hé! petite cruche! avec tes pots de confiture
Tu partiras en sucette mais pas à l'aventure
Au Nord
Mais lui c'est différent, il est né sur le Mont Blanc,
C'est un grand alpiniste, un amant monument,
Tu as perdu sa piste
Hé! petite nonne! suis l'Au-delà si tu le trouves
Le ramène pas au cardinal pour qu'il te l'ouvre
Encore
Hé! petite larve! je suis toi-même et je te parle
Tu es déjà grande alors lève toi sors de ta cale
Au port
Ton cœur de petite fille est mort.
Hé! petite fille! à ta droite l'Arc de Triomphe
Hé! petite fille! à ta gauche il y a dieu qui ronfle
Hé! petite fille! devant il y a les pyramides
Hé! petite fille! derrière l' génie de la Bastille.
Là où tu te noies tu as beau avoir pied tu coules
Au port
Hé! petite folle! c'est pas la brasse c'est le crawl
Pour la traversée il t'aurait fallu des épaules
Du corps
Mais lui c'est différent, il est né sur l'océan,
C'est un grand capitaine, un amant monument,
Tu t'es perdue dedans
Hé! petite fille! on est jamais deux à partir
Y en a toujours un pour larguer l'autre pour languir
Au port
Hé! petite cruche! avec tes pots de confiture
Tu partiras en sucette mais pas à l'aventure
Au Nord
Mais lui c'est différent, il est né sur le Mont Blanc,
C'est un grand alpiniste, un amant monument,
Tu as perdu sa piste
Hé! petite nonne! suis l'Au-delà si tu le trouves
Le ramène pas au cardinal pour qu'il te l'ouvre
Encore
Hé! petite larve! je suis toi-même et je te parle
Tu es déjà grande alors lève toi sors de ta cale
Au port
Ton cœur de petite fille est mort.
Hé! petite fille! à ta droite l'Arc de Triomphe
Hé! petite fille! à ta gauche il y a dieu qui ronfle
Hé! petite fille! devant il y a les pyramides
Hé! petite fille! derrière l' génie de la Bastille.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
Blue
Ed Sheeran
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.
Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
I've also given this a stab at translation and present my result below (I'm English, so I'm not sure I've properly understood the meaning in parts)
Oh little girl, you drink the water and you're drunk There where you drown, you struggle to catch your feet, you sink At port
Hey you crazy girl, it's not breaststroke it's crawl For the crossing, you're gonna need a lift (help) From the military (?)
But him, he's different, he was born on the sea He's a big captain, a monumental lover You're lost inside
Hey little girl! We never have to leave There's always one to drop the other, to become weak (what?) At port
Hey little fool (also vase/jug), with your pots of jam (US jelly) You will go wild, but not on adventure to the north
But him, he's different, he was born on Mont Blanc He's a big climber, a monumental lover You've lost his path
Hey little nun! Follow him to the end of the world but if you find him Don't bring him to the cardinal so that he unlocks him to you again
Hey little grub, I am you and I speak to you You're already big, so get up, leave your hiding place/hold At port
Your little girl's heart is dead
Hey little girl, on your right, the arc de triomphe Hey little girl, on your left a snoring god Hey little girl, in front there's the pyramids Hey little girl, behind you, the genius of the Bastille.
And my interpretation is that it's about a girl who's not born for travel and each time she wades into the sea she drowns, each time she climbs mountains she loses her way. But she keeps falling for guys who are travellers and she tries to keep up, but she gets lost. I think the singer might be a guy/her mother/a friend, saying "Don't run after them, you're fine with me". I'm not all that sure though.
Then at the end, it's like they're on a tour bus round Paris (Camille's home city), and the singer is showing her the beauties of her home town, saying they never have to leave. It's sadly cute. It also reminds me of her song "Paris", where she tries to leave and live elsewhere but keeps coming home to Paris, despite it having bits she doesn't like.
Actually, I think I've changed my mind. I think she's singing to herself(je suis toi-même et je te parle). At the beginning, she's saying stop running after these guys, then at the end she's telling herself that she's grown up now and should leave the nest. Then she hops on a tour bus and takes a trip round paris...
