Very sorry to hear of his passing.

2020 has been a really hard year for so many.  Thank you for posting this song.  Did you know this person personally at all or is he a widely known singer in France?

Nice work JP. I really liked the solo at the end, some really good and emotional playing there with a great tone. Nice bass work as well. This all came together really well and sounded great.

BUMP.... especially for Zoltan who appreciates French songs 

[Zoltan]

Those lyrics are one of the best i've seen in a long while. There's something very french in them (Some lines made me think of Jean Rollin and others Gainsbourg at his best). They're filled with drama, mystery and frisson!

And this i got from the translated lyrics. I'm sure they would flow even better in the original language.

Speaking of French songs. The Pierre Bachelet theme song for Emmanuelle is actually quite beautiful. Even without the connections to the movie (which i think is quite idiotic!). At times i've toyed around the idea of recording it, but it's only in french language that it really works. The translated version even if performed by Bachelet himself is quite weak compared.

There's the magic of french language. Either you get the original, or you're left out

[Jean Pierre]

thank you Zoltan

peaking of French songs. The Pierre Bachelet theme song for Emmanuelle is actually quite beautiful.

I just replayed it on YT; I had forgotten it, it is true that it is beautiful...I will do it for the pleasure
