What are you listening to?

after yesterday storm that almost flooded our rooftop apartment ... in this gentle sunny day .. this sounds truly surreal ... wish you all to survive in love this day and every other that will unfold for us in this day by day future ...
Absolutely wonderful, solarmind! It put the icing of my Sunday 'cake'! :clap:
 
This song and the scenes of the video are from the movie "Les Choses de la vie" by Claude Sautet. We see the beautiful Romy Schneider (how can one be so beautiful!) and Michel Piccoli, a marvelous French actor, one of the best.

The words of the song are these:

Tonight is September
and I've locked my room
The sun will never shine in
You no longer love me
Up there a bird flies by like a dedication
In the sky

I loved you so much Hélène
We must part
The planes will leave without us
I don't know how to love you anymore Hélène

In the house I used to love when we lived
Like a child's drawing
You don't love me anymore
I watch the evening fall in the mirrors
It's my life

It's better this way Hélène
It was love without friendship
I'll have to change my memory
I'll never write to you again Hélène

The story is no longer worth following
and I closed the book
The sun won't shine in
You no longer love me

It is a sad song but very beautiful, as is the movie, really. One of the best of Claude Sautet.

 
Several month ago I have bought this album containing old French songs, some from as far as the XVIIIth century:
Venez chanter la France avec Marion Sigaut (EN: Come and sing France with Marion Sigaut)

I have learn 7 of them.

The first title "Auprès de ma blonde" is available for free here: link
 
My brain has been craving a mix of various LoFi music (like Wishkid, Goland, Blocktane) and 90s alternative/grunge/rock these days.
 
T.Rex - Cosmic Dancer
I was dancing when I was twelve
I was dancing when I was twelve
I was dancing when I was out
I was dancing when I was out
I danced myself right out the womb
I danced myself right out the womb
Is it strange to dance so soon?
I danced myself right out the womb
I was dancing when I was eight
I was dancing when I was eight
Is it strange to dance so late?
Is it strange to dance so late?
Oh, ohh-oh
I danced myself into the tomb
I danced myself into the tomb
Is it strange to dance so soon? (Oh)
I danced myself into the tomb
Is it wrong to understand
The fear that dwells inside a man?
What's it like to be a loon?
I liken it to a balloon
Oh, ohh-oh
I danced myself out of the womb
I danced myself out of the womb
Is it strange to dance so soon?
I danced myself into the tomb
But then again
Once more
I danced myself out of the womb
I danced myself out of the womb
Is it strange to dance so soon?
I danced myself out of the womb
Oh, ohh-oh (oh)
