My first post on Steemit! (apart from the introduction one).
“La Nuit je Mens” from Alain Bashung.
It’s the kind of song that wasn’t a huge hit when it came out in France nearly 20 years ago, but that has now reached a cult status.
I kind of had forgotten about it, but when I heard it a few month ago, it literally pulled tears out of my eyes.
Since, then I am in love with this song!
The instrumentation is amazingly beautiful (Check youtube for the original song) and the Lyrics are out of this world with meanings hidden in every word. Because it is in French I embeded some English subtitles in the video.
The meaning of the lyrics have been quite debated on the French speaking web, as they can be understood in different beautiful ways.
Let me know in the comments what the song make you feel, and what story it inspires you!
