Christian,
nice one! Not often I hear French Bossa. Very good arrangement and vocals by Patrick. Production is also top tier. Bossa is one of my favorite genres, I enjoyed it.

Thank you for sharing!

Chris,
Patrick has the right voice for the arrangement and melody.
Lovely work by both of you.
Languid melodies over spirited rhythms.
Any chance of a translation?


Cheers

I suppose all music in French reminds me of "foreign movie nights" when NetFlix delivered DVD's. Good times, and a beautiful piece. Enjoyed the laid-back delivery of the melody and lyric over that spare and upbeat band. Very late-night-in-the-city feeling for me.

Nicely done - love the bossa groove, and thought your vocal performance was top notch. Easy to sway to, and really laid back in it's delivery. The mix job is really tight too - sounds concise and professional.

Thanks so much for sharing smile

Thank you all,
Here's an approximate tranlation :

You dream of someone other than me

When I see you there,
hoping you'll turn around,
I would not like
let your memory fade from me.
I have to accept it,
my arms are too small for you.
Even if my heart has place,
you dream of someone other than me.

I stayed a long time
like a poor silly fool
waiting
always so vainly.
So here I am trapped
bewitched by a moment.
Charmed by your spells,
I have always been willing.

Thanks Jim,
Patrick isn't Joao Gilberto but I think he has a great voice to sing Bossa nova. Christian

Excellent Bossa...

The vocal and your tracks have the feel of a good band that has worked together for a while.

Very nice!
