Listen To This: In Any Language….

Filed under: Canadialand > Listen To This > Francophilia

We have no idea what she is saying, but….

This is lovely!

Coeur de Pirate is from Montreal, Canada. And, yes, that lovely blonde gal sings in French.

This song is called Comme des Enfants and you will love it instantly! It's sweet, simple, quirky, infectious folk/pop.

Check it out (below).

It's lovely, and if it's of any help (I'm from Quebec so I speak french) the song is about a love triangle. Guy nb.1 loves her but she still loves guy nb.2. She says it's hard for her to live double lives…

Anyhow, very cute !

Yeah she is from Montreal like the title Comme des Enfants means "Like Kids"

I'm Canadian and can translate what she's singing. Coles' notes version: "I am a talented songstress yet I dread that I will end up as fodder on Perez Hilton's craptastic site. Please don't let it be, else I will end up a flash in the pan along with everyone else he sinks his claws into…" She pretty much says that over and over the entire song.

Good luck on that A/R career Perez! Oops did I let your little secret slip?

BTW, I think Perez is going to be the "Ring leader" for the new Britney tour. (Thats my guess)

Perfect occasion for french-bashers to ventilate their hate and frustration ! Please Perez do not post anything French, it only makes the anglos hate us even more, they are so envious of our talents.

Perez this is what she says in the chorus:

Mais il m'aime encore, et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort
Mais il m'aime encore, et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort

translation: but he still loves me, and me I love you a litte more extremely

i know in english you can't say "me I…" but in french we can and don't know how to translate it right

I love it! I am from Montreal and she is awesome and is growing very popular in French Canada.
AndeeD says – reply to this

64

Actually I disagree! You're right Perez, we don't understand a word she says cause she mumbles throughout the entire song. If I was her I shoud've stuck with "Bonjour Brumaire".

Wanna hear great French Indie Music? Check out Bonjour Brumaire:

Perez, you have made me discover many exquisite bands, but, one of my favorites is " Lykke Li" PLEASE GO CHECK HER OUT. You will LOVE it… my favorite songs of her is " I'm good, I'm Gone" and " Everybody But Me" . ALL OF YOU, GO CHECK HER OUT.

RondoSi says – reply to this

75

Good thing we don't all have the same tastes, life would be so boring ! So thanks "I love my life" and all the others who took the time to leave some bad words about her for making this world a bit entertaining. You can now shut your mouth and go listen to something else that will make you happy.

Hey guys, I'm Canadian and I speak both french and english. If you canadians can't tell what she saying maybe you're more of some american deviation… By the way, I love americans, I just think that if you live in a billingual country should try to learn both languages and not whine about those who are not exactly like you.

oh, and I think that Bonjour Brumaire is good, but they don't have Beatrice's talent for writing and playing…

SOME OF THE LYRICS~ I SUCK AT TRANSLATION…And of the heart to your lips I become a headache Your laughter me cry to release you Before losing taken and d' to give up Because I t' in will never ask as much Already that you treat me like a large child Us n' let us have too anything to risk Besides our lives qu' side is left But it m' still like And me I t' like a little more extremely But it m' still like And me I t' like a little more extremely C' in is enough of these unfoldings C' is harder to make qu' otherwise Because without laughing c' is easier to dream With this qu' one will be able again to never touch One is caught the hand like children Happiness with the lips a little naively And d' together is walked; a decided step Whereas our heads us cries all to stop It m' still like And me I t' like a little more extremely But it m' still like And me I t' like a little more extremely But it m' still like And me I t' like a little more extremely But it m' still like And me I t' like a little more extremely Still and me I t' like a little more extremely But it m' still like And me I t' like a little more extremely But it m' still like And me I t' like a little more extremely But it m' still like And me I t' like a little more extremely In spite of that it m' still like And me I t' like a little more extremely But it m' still like And me I t' like a little more extremely

My God, this is so old. This chick has been all over the media since last summer! I'm soooo tired of her and of hearing about how young she is and how depressed she was and got better thanks to making that album and about all the tatoos she has and I don't even live in North America. And all her songs sound the same, always the same kind of piano notes.
Next please!
