L'eau (New Celine song on album from Jean Lapointe)

[Jacqui]

Je comprends maintenant. Merci

[Claudette]

So let me get this straight. This is not the same Lapointe that destroyed L'amour Existe Encore? Have to agree with Jacqui. There are to many French singers...

[Viva las Vegas]

You can listen to an extract of the new song "L'eau" here on Canoe

[ZoraSourit]

I don't really like his voice... but oh lord, when Céline starts to sing, it's like the beginning of a new day... To bad we only get to listen to a little bit of her part.

[Leanne]

Celine is awesom!! What about mr. Lapointe... He sounds like he has a cold.

[Thomas]

Thanks for the link, Celine sounds great!

[tonybower]

Thanks for the link!

[CelineFanInSoCal]

Can't wait to hear the rest of it!

 

Thanks for sharing!

[CelineTheBest5]

Celine voice is sooooooo beautiful

[Jacqui]

Thanks for posting. It sounds...good. I can't think of the word I want.

[Koolan]

Sounds very good. I can't wait to hear the full song.

[anewdayhascome]

can't wait to hear it... Celine has so much to discover still... first Acadian Driftwood, now this:)

I love it!

[Pureceline]

Thnx for the link. But I don't like the singer! It sounds like he is drunk!

[pat200]

for some reason i am not able to hear the song as it won't even start! can't wait for it to appear somewhere else

[celinesounds]

her voice is amazing on the song, but him sounds very bad

[Frozen_Phoenix]

He has an absolutly dreadfull voice but she sounds great

[celinedion1]

OMG Celine sounds amazing on this song. She should record this song for her next french album.

[autumnskies00]

It's very calming. But OMD when she started singing it brought tears to my eyes. Very beautiful and effortless. I can't wait for a new album, I am loving her voice on these two latest duets and I hope she does more songs like this in the future.

[Miha]

At first I thought Jesus another song for 70+up listeners but when Celine's part came I was like

Well we can't blame mr. Lapointe's voice. He's not so young anymore obviously.

I say it's a proper song for stressful days, to sit down relax and calm down.

[anewdayhascome]

is there a whole song now?

[Timster]

That 70 year old pensioner was probably wheeled into the recording studio!

No, it's not, it's a different singer.

 

I love the little we can hear. She sound so good, so... douce... Sorry, there's no English word I can think of that truely describes "douce".

I can't wait to hear the whole song. I'm already addicted to Acadian Driftwood, all I need is another obsession

I'm sorry, its one thing if you don't care for his singing, but why the disrespectful remark simply because of his age? Anyway, the song sounds beautiful and Celine's vocals sound so pure and beautiful too. What a gift she is to us. Looking forward to hearing another new song during this Celine drought!

Just bought L'eau on iTunes! Yay!

 

 

Linds

[Véronyk]

Got it too.

She gives me goosebumps. It's so a calm song.

At the end with the little kids wow

And the text is sooooooo cute.

[autumnskies00]

Can someone post lyrics? I bought the song on itunes but would like to know what it means lol. Or at least let us know the concept of the song. VEROOOOOO?? hahah

[Teodora]

I don't have access to iTunes

[anewdayhascome]

me neither:(

[Véronyk]

They talk about the water and all the pollution thing That if we do nothing to protect our environnement we wouldn't have water no more. So it's a cute song, with a good message.

 

lyrics:

 

L'eau de la claire fontaine ne coule plus comme avant

Les tulipes de Mylène ne sourit plus au printemps

Le bois est devenu clairière

Le blé ne donne plus de bon pain

Car l'eau de la fontaine claire ne se frait plus de chemins

Car l'eau de la fontaine claire ne se frait plus de chemins

 

Autrefois, les jolies mésanges venait se baigner dans l'eau douce

Se sont envolées comme des anges

À la recherche d'autres sources

Les hommes ont sacrifié l'eau douce

Pour de l'eau lourde, cette eau de guerre

Les usines crachent dans les sources leur venin polluant la mer

Les usines crachent dans les sources leur venin polluant la mer

 

Si on ne posent pas de gestes freinant les pluies du désespoir

Du au requin de cette espèce nous n'aurons plus grand chose à boire

L'eau est précieuse comme l'air

Indispensable à notre survie

Conservons la jusqu'a la mer notre eau de source, notre eau de vie

Protégeons la jusqu'à la mer notre eau de source, notre eau de vie
