Hi all,
Thierry Fraisse has written the lyrics and is the singer of this french song. He is also playing trombone at the end.

https://soundcloud.com/christian-devienne/farniente

Here's an approximate translation of the lyrics :

A coffee on a bistro table
A notebook with leaves in the wind
I stretch my arms very very high
And look in the square at the living

I settle for next to nothing
This is what we should have done before
By refusing these dog lives
To be free and daydreaming
Free and daydreaming

I claim my laziness
You see where the sweat has taken us
No desire crosses me
Apart from this scribbled prose
This scribbled prose

I see you coming towards me
Smile on lips in the sun
You and me, we're doing it again
Because love is always the same
Always the same...

Already captivated by the introduction, the vocal stands in perfect balance and style to give this composition wonderful dimension.

Your 'accomplice' Thierry Fraisse has delivered very suitable justice to this.

The trombone sits as a perfect tribute.

Nice, everywhere.

Smooth jazz with a rough voice - nice combination! Good work on the trombone as well.

Thumbs up from me as well!

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Beautiful song, beautiful performance. M. Fraisse has a wonderful, gravelly voice. I like the tasteful, subdued trombone playing, too. Congratulations.

Wonderful, Chris. Instrument choice is superb and so is the vocal. I listened before reading the lyrics. Right away I was reminded of bistro and figured that's the translation of farniente. Although I was wrong, it tells me you crafted the perfect music to fit the lyrics (or vice versa). Good song.


Enjoy whatever happens!
