I love this song. Noir Desir is - I should say was - an excellent music group, remarkable for the lyrics as well as for the music, which is rare. What happened is tragic but I prefer not to think about it so that I can still appreciate the music. I mean, some people think the man's disgusting, so the music's disgusting, too. That's not my case...
It's a good thing that your french teacher did introduce you to Noir Désir ; I have the feeling that french teachers too often focus on "classical" singers like Edith Piaf or Jacques Brel (who were excellent but have nothing to do with what young people listen to...). It's a kind of cliché...
