It's a single from Marilou's latest French album. Celine sing the song with her just to promo Marilou's new album.

Gosh, it's difficult to find the correct lyrics on the web....

"Chante"

Tu peux tomber de si haut parfois de l'or à la poussière
Mais n'oublie jamais ça
Tu peux grandir dans des draps de soie et croiser une lumière
Mais ne perds jamais ça
Ce cadeau , ce besoin, ce combat

[Refrain] :
Et chante pour tous comme pour toi
Pour soigner tes blessures pour la joie d'un ami
Chante même sans savoir pourquoi
Quelques mots qui rassurent ou la douleur d'un cri
Chante c'est ta vie

Tu peux vivre en croyant avoir tout et perdre l'essentiel
Et n'oublie jamais ça
Tu peux douter, tomber à genou te détourner du ciel
Mais ne perds jamais ça
Cette force , cet élan, cet espoir

[Refrain]
...

Elle est remplie de feu, de fièvre et de larmes
Mais de tellement d' amour aussi

Chante, pour toi même pour rien
Pour des milliers de gens ou le coeur d'un voisin
Chante si ça te fait du bien
Pour le bleu d'un amour ou le gris d'un chagrin
Chante pour tout ce que tu veux pour toi
Pour soigner tes blessures Pour la joie d'un ami
Chante même sans savoir pourquoi
Quelques mots qui rassurent ou la douleur d'un cri
Chante c'est ta vie




And here's my translation. I'm not happy with my English  

"Sing"

you can fall of the height sometimes from the gold to the dust
but never forget that
you can grow in the cloth of silk and find the light
but don't ever lose this
this gift, this need, this fight

(Refrain)
and sing for everyone like for yourserf
to heal your pains, for the joy of a friend
sing even without knowing why
a comforting word or the pain of a cry
sing it's your life

you can live believing that you have everything and lose the essential
but never forget that
you can doubt, fall on your knees, turn your back on the heavens
but don't ever lose this
this strength, this dash, this hope

(Refrain)
...

she is full of fire, of fever and of tears
but of so much love as well

sing for everything even for nothing
for thousands of people or for the hearo of your neighbor
sing if it does you any good
sing for the blue of love or for the grey of sorrow
sing for everyothing that you wish for yourself
to heal your pains, for the joy of a friend
sing even without knowing why
a comforting word or the pain of a cry
sing it's your life

Now that I've listened to the song, I've noticed that Marilou sings in the third line
"Tu peux grandir dans des draps de soie et croiser une guerre" and that's
"you can grow in the cloth of silk and find a war"; also this live version apparently lacks the last part of the original

When did this happen?

[MalaysiaCeline]

I just finished downloaded the video of this song "Chante" please forgive me for my poor english....i just want to said that....Celine granted lives to this song. When i heard Marilou singing this song...i cant feel the spirit of this song.....and when i watched Celine slowy move her step to be on stage and start beliting the 2nd verse of the song "Tu peux vivre en croyant avoir tout et perdre l'essentiel
Et n'oublie jamais ça" immediately i can feel the soul and spirit of the song....to be more accurate in describing how i feel....it was like Celine flawless vocal cord make the song so much different.....not to say that Marilou not good but is just like magic...Celine voice light up the entire song and make the song alive....em....just like I will only agree Contre Nature will be only good when Celine sang it and no one can re-record the song and granted lives to that song like our Celine did.....She is always my super DIVA on earth....      Sometime i really cant explain why but Celine voice really can make a song filled with sipirt, soul and lives.... Hope all of you understanhd what i trying to said here...Cheers
