Hi all,
Here's a french minor blues.
Thierry Fraisse has written the lyrics and he sings.
The song is about a man who doesn't want to be left by his girl friend.
So, he promises her to change...

This is really good! I put the lyrics into Google translate and, although they most likely lose some of the original intentions, the ideas are wonderfully expressed. Great vocals and production. Very enjoyable!!

Christian,

Boy, do I love that vocal—gritty, earthy and full of feeling. Sweet arrangement and production. All good, from first to last. Outstanding!

All my best,

Deej

Hello Chris,

Very nice hoarse, smoked vocals (if you call it like that in English) and with lyrics so beautifully written.
It always sounds more special when it is sung in French, at least that how my wife and I think of it when hearing these chansons in a movie.
You can picture that man, walking with a sigaret, with a hat, the collar of his long coat up, at night and the scene in black and white.

I loved it, Chris!

Hans

Thanks Dewey, Deej, Andi, Mike and Hans for your comments.
I'm agree with you. Thierry's voice is great !

Fantastic performance, and Thierry has really delivered justice to the vocals.

Knowing what the song is about helps to understand the melancholy attributes in the production.

Very nice all around.
