"D'elles" album - Official Topic

[celinefanonline]

now just the photo shoot left (the cover and things)

[René 2]

I understand, monsieur René but for example if you read some titles of Mylène Farmer's songs - they don't make sense whatsoever! But they still are there and they work!

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

I see. Well, I think we'll have the confirmation soon.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I'm so excited, monsieur! It'll be her bestest album. Actually the one I was waiting for so long.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

You bet darling. You should go to a certain maniac's website (if u are interested on "A Cause"...)

[Agusia]

I can't wait ot hear "la lettre de george sand" !

Do you know it ??

Here are the lyrics in french

 

Cher ami,

Je suis toute émue de vous dire que j'ai

bien compris l'autre jour que vous aviez

toujours une envie folle de me faire

danser. Je garde le souvenir de votre

baiser et je voudrais bien que ce soit

une preuve que je puisse être aimée

par vous. Je suis prête à montrer mon

affection toute désintéressée et sans cal-

cul, et si vous voulez me voir ainsi

vous dévoiler, sans artifice, mon âme

toute nue, daignez me faire visite,

nous causerons et en amis franchement

je vous prouverai que je suis la femme

sincère, capable de vous offrir l'affection

la plus profonde, comme la plus étroite

amitié, en un mot : la meilleure épouse

dont vous puissiez rêver. Puisque votre

âme est libre, pensez que l'abandon ou je

vis est bien long, bien dur et souvent bien

insupportable. Mon chagrin est trop

gros. Accourrez bien vite et venez me le

faire oublier. À vous je veux me sou-

mettre entièrement.

Votre poupée

 

If you read every second verse beggining with Je suis...you ll see the game of words in it.

It is hard to translate it because of this game of words

OH... MY... GOD... !))))

LMAO! That is not the one, Agusia! We already had a topic about it and I already translated the REAL letter Céline has sung on D'elles.

[Agusia]

Really it is not that one

i am soooo dissapointed.You cannot imagine how;)

I wanted Celine to sing noughty song

[sayyed]

OMFG! It's the official Tracklist!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

IT's DAM REAL!

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

 

I don't think so.... But the order can't be right.... I don't think they will put the two versions of A Cause after another... or the lullaby at 3rd...

 

the tracklist seems scary to me.... I also thought that SNRQ can't be the first song to the album, its beginning is more suitable for the #2 or something like this...

 

......... just my two cents!

[Céline's Blues]

OK so Star Systeme apparently aired already but they didn't reveal anything about the true essence bhind the two versions of "A Cause" buuuuuut you certainly see that Marc and Jean are like THE CUTEST COUPLE EVER!!!! I wishe them all the best. <3

 

Anyway they said that there were actually 3 versions of A Cause and Céline chose the one with the united music of the our fav gay couple and then the original Veneruso version. She also said she prefers recording at night and the couple of notes of the song while not all that apparent or clearly audible sounded GREAT! The presenter said it was an amazing song and thought it was pity not to let the viewers hear it as well!

 

Céline also mentioned "D'eux", "Miracle" and "1 Fille & 4 Types" along with "D'elles" being the concept albums of her career. The rest she said were "compilations of songs". OMG she is SO RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This woman never ceases to amaze me!

[thevoice]

what is so amazing about her stating the facts?

[Céline's Blues]

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I never thought she'd be so aware of her career. Glad to hear that from her mouth.

[sayyed]

A Cause sounds great! U can see Celine enjoys working on this album....I'm so proud! This will be truly an amazing piece of work and I think I will like it better that 1F&4T.

the little extracts I heard sound very r'n'b' ish...

 

Refrain :

Or I faut s'aimer malgré "

Not at all, gogo! Nice she acknowledges her work. You don't see her doing that often in interviews.

she was just stating the obvious - u dont have to be a genius or extremly aware in order to see/hear that those were concept projects .

[Céline's Blues]

I'm glad to hear the obvious then. Hope the obious will be there as well when she'll be recording with Max Martin next summer.

[thevoice]

max martin doesnt have anything to do with it so i dont really know why u pop up with his name time after time...i'm starting to feel u really want him to be part of this album .

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I don't think anybody thinks she's stupid. I've never read that about her, not even in the worst articles. They say her music sucks, but I don't think anybody is as stupid as to say Celine is stupid, because: 1. A stupid person couldn't get where she's got, would end up like Britney/Whitney... 2. I'm sure everybody heard at least one interview and can realize she's a very intelligent woman.

no wonder i don't like concept albums SISDA is the best french album imo.What usually happens with concept albums is...u don't like a song u press next o hear something else and u listen to the same (almost) song and the u press next again and then the cd is over but this time the concept is held within the lyrics so songs probably wont sound the same.3 months and a week for D'elles

 

btw Celine chante Plamondon isn't "concept" album?

Iagree... SISDA is the best french album so far - but I have the feeling D'elles can top it!

Si J’étais Quelqu’un - "If I were Somebody"

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I think this is the song, written by Natalie Nechtschein. I don't know what to think, it's not really as good as S'il n'en restait quelqu'une or the poem by Jovette Bernier, maybe sounds better with the music.

 

Si j'étais quelqu'un

comme les autres

 

Si j'étais quelqu'un

Mon esprit serait roi

Comme les autres

Je regarderais passer un train.

 

Je partirais loin dans la vie

La bise soufflera dans les arbres en fleurs

Les anges sauteront en folie

Comme pour attraper des cœurs

Suspendus à l'échelle de l'infini.

 

Si j'étais quelqu'un

Je rigolerais souvent

Comme les autres

Je penserais à toi.

 

L'amour me jouerait des tours

Mon regard s'étonnerait à ton bonheur fou

Je serais dans un nuage

Je dormirais comme un sage

Et je te surprendrais avec beaucoup de malice

 

Si j'étais quelqu'un

Noir ou Blanc

Comme les autres

Je serais comme toi

 

Je redécouvrirais le monde

Je le peindrais à ma façon

Sur mes pages en désordre

Comme pour dessiner un ballon

Que je t'envoie à la figure

 

Si j'étais quelqu'un

Je t'aimerais passionnément

Comme les autres...

Here the lyrics to "Ses yeux de clair de lune":

 

Ses yeux de clair de lune

 

Retenir dans mes bras, la nuit

Indolente et voluptueuse

La nuit complice et chuchoteuse

Qui me poursuit et me séduit

 

Avec ses yeux de clair de lune

Où je vois le rêve passer

Et l’humain désir se presser…

La nuit, femme comme chacune

 

Jovette Bernier (1900-1981)

This is beautiful. I like it

[anewdayhascome]

where you heard all them?

[Céline's Blues]

Not everybody is bound to love Nechtstein's VERY simplistic and sweet lyrics. Yet their essence and charm have to be experienced in the context of the author herself... She has the Down-Syndrome and I can bet all parts of my phat @$$ that to her, at the very moment she was writing it, these lyrics meant truly something special and they still surely do. It's up to Céline then to make the lyrics alive with the music but they are still beautiful in their own little way, even if they'll be beautiful to Nechtstein only it won't change the emotional content she herself has put into them.

i think this is the REAL track list...i always thought that SNRQ would be the 1st song that la lettre would be last and that if both "A cause" were included would be the one after the other...and La Diva towards the end of the album seems also suitable to me

 

now we have 4cents 23 more and we get 50cent (sry that was cold )

Damn I wish I took French in school! I love her French music, don't understand most of it, but I love it all the same. I need to find a crash course in French that will teach me quickly so I can understand these songs easier, a lot of times the translations don't come through right and the song doesn't mean the same.
