c4n4d4 Posted May 18, 2013 at 07:18 AM Posted May 18, 2013 at 07:18 AM (edited) I don't think you understand what I was saying. You said that it "literally means f**k" I said that it actually doesn't literally mean that but that is the implication of the word in that particular context. Prendre is used a few times in the song and it is not always being used in the connotation of implying "f**king" If you look at this part of the song:Si tu ne veux pas prendre L'amour que je te donne Je pourrais te rendre fou, rendre fou Jusqu'au bout Its means: If you will not takeThe love that I give youI could make you crazy, make you crazythrough It doesn't have the implication you are suggesting the word has in this context, BUT... If you look at this part of the song where it uses prendre again:Toutes ces nuits toute seule dans le noir De ma chambre À rêver que tu viens me prendre Me feras-tu encore attendre des jours, des mois Which is essentially saying: All those nights all alone in the darkMy roomTo dream that you come take meWilt thou have me wait days, months Here it does imply sex based on the connotation of the word and the way its being used. And yes "prends moi" does mean "take me" and is used in a sexual way. "Prends moi" is also a weight loss fragrance, so....

LuisMa Posted May 18, 2013 at 02:57 PM Posted May 18, 2013 at 02:57 PM "Prends moi" is also a weight loss fragrance, so.... I don't think she would have been implying this. A fragrance for that? 1 Quote
Daysleeper Posted May 18, 2013 at 02:58 PM Posted May 18, 2013 at 02:58 PM I just watched the documentary. I liked it. It was nice to see Jean-Jacques Goldman again talking about Céline. Again we heard many things we already know, especially the story behind "My Heart Will Go On". I liked the part where they were talking about Céline's early days. I always find it interesting. I regret we didn't see some rare footage of recording of "D'eux" as they announced. Only some sessions from "S'il suffisait d'aimer" that we already saw. Quote
