Hi all,
Here's a french bossa about a lone sailor.
Patrick Fournerat has written the lyrics and he sings.

https://soundcloud.com/christian-devienne/jai-perdu-la-notion-du-temps

Here's an approximative translation :

By dint of walking a long time
To sail in melee
To follow the flow
I end up tacking
I lost the notion of time

Arrived in the land of rum
I'm going to take a nap
This is the best of serums

Sailing round the globe
With a few knots of wind
The whole ocean for just one man
I'm heading to the east
I lost the notion of time

This shuffles along really nicely and the narrative is cool.
I think the drum transitions are a little busy went they play across the toms.
A very tidy, even and pleasant mix with a similarly nice vocal.


Cheers

Interesting melody and perfectly expressed.

Patrick's vocals are quite remarkable.

I did enjoy this, the sax fills are smooth and unobtrusive, just nice.

Nicely done - the vocals are top notch and fit with the instrumentation perfectly in my opinion. The sax adds a wonderful component too - actually, the production in general here is spot on.

I wouldn't change a thing here - thanks for sharing smile


Cheers,

Hi Chris,

very moody, very appealing flow. Patricks vocal is very good, too. Can see myself in an old-fashioned bar sipping something my doctor warned me of....

GOOD!

Stefan

Very cool acoustic atmosphere, the band itself creates strong images of sea in my mind (beaches, waves, archipelago), so it's perfect fit for the story. Enjoyable vocals, the sax is excellent choice.

This song had a really awesome sound to it, and I really liked the combination of the acoustic with the sax.

Thanks for sharing!
