To give some insight on a verse of the song: he sings "Ce soir la femme du torrero dormira sur ses deux oreilles". In French, as you may know, "dormir sur ses deux oreilles" means to have a really good sleep. But he uses this expression to refer to the barbaric tradition in which the torrero cuts the bulls ears' off at the end of the fight, while he's still alive, to take them as a trophy.
Il y égalementi un non-dit grivois, car outre les deux oreilles la queue est aussi coupée, donc la femme du torero dormira sur ses deux oreilles car la queue du torero ne sera pas là pour la tenir éveillée.
C'est sans doute la cinquantième fois que j'écoute cette chanson et pourtant je verse une larme quasi à chaque fois: le fait que ça soit dans ma langue maternelle et que le narrateur soit le taureau, ça me bouleverse profondément. It's probably the fiftieth time I've listened to this song, and yet I shed a tear almost every time: the fact that it's in my native language and that the narrator is the bull moves me deeply.
Everybody likes this guy too here ! Francis Cabrel is a classic in France ! When I was a child my father introduced me to this singer on the radio. Wonderful ! He is a poet and a person of integrity 🙏🏻
Malgré les pétitions, malgré les demandes, malgré les années, la corrida continue encore et toujours. Cette chanson résume tout ce que j'en pense, et me rend infiniment triste à chaque fois que je l'écoute. Parce qu'elle me rappelle à quel point l'homme peut être cruel, juste par plaisir.
Francis Cabrel said that during the recording of this song, the sound engineer (who had a rocker look) ended in tears because this song is so sad and makes us realize that bullfights are so cruel. sorry for my english.
I wish the translation were more accurate and reflected Francis Cabrel’s use of french language, there’s a pun with « la femme du torero dormira sur ses deux oreilles »: when the torero wins the bullfight, sometimes he’s allowed to cut the bull’s ears and to keep it as a trophy. When someone quietly sleeps, there’s a french turn of phrase saying « he/she is sleeping on both ears » see what I mean ? the bull here would like to win, cut the torero’s ears and give it to his wife so she could feel what that cruelty really means, probably the most powerfull verse of that song.
Unfortunately the translations are often bad... However I interpret the original sentence differently: the bullfighter's wife can sleep serenely on her two ears without worrying about those of the bull which were mutilated.
You're right but, when translating a song you have to follow the music, no time for long explanations such as this one. Translating from a language to another is not only mechanically replacing words with others.
@@jfrancobelge Yes, it’s obvious that translation and explanations are two very different things. Here in our comments (there is another elsewhere) we discuss among ourselves the interpretation we give to the original sentence, in French, because not everyone understands it the same. I was a little hasty in mentioning the bad translations because yes that is not the case here, it could not be better. But I still see a lot of bad translations. Apart from special expressions or untranslatable puns, there are very simple vocabulary errors, but also errors of meaning. The translator doesn't know enough French to understand the true meaning of the sentence, so he writes what he understood and it doesn't match. Well, they do what they can, I would certainly do less well 😌
Une de mes préférées de Cabrel , elle me fait pleurer . Et cette phrase : " est-ce que ce monde est sérieux ? " c'est une bombe , quand je vois le monde aujourd'hui j’entends Cabrel dans ma tête , est-ce que ce monde est sérieux ? Non , définitivement non . merci pour cette réaction .
Francis Cabrel another nugget of French song he began his career in the late 70s still very popular and This song is a gem in fact the whole album "Un samedi soir sur la terre" is magnificent released in 1994.
Francis Cabrel… un grand artiste français depuis longtemps ! Son répertoire est juste magnifique !De très belles chansons à découvrir et traduire les paroles. J'apprécie vos commentaires, votre analyse très juste ! Merci et surtout ne changez rien !👌👍
Fun fact about the singer : He has a RUclips channel with his songs on it (wow, how fun and original…) and… he recently started a video tutorials serie on how to play his songs at the guitar. This song is one of the first two videos to this day.
J adore cette chanson tellement réelle ces corridas sont immondes pauvres petites bêtes là souffrance Qu ils doivent ressentir j en ai la chair de poule et j habite dans le sud paix et gentillesse à tous les animaux 🤗🤗🗼🗼🇫🇷
Do you know what's the stupidest thing about bullfighting in France? French law punishes animal cruelty with 3 years in prison, and if the animal dies 5 years in prison. Except... in a region (the one near Spain). This means that by torturing a bull to death you can be either a hero or a criminal a few kilometers away. Vive la France !
I just don't understand why bullfights are allowed in that part of France along the Spanish border. Some say it's to preserve traditions. But do we have to preserve bad and crual traditions? If so, we'd still burn women as witches and watch gladiators fight to death. This is even more insane if you think that a good chunk of Spain neighboring southwestern France is Catalonia, where they've banned bullfights. But is Catalonia really Spain? That's another (political) issue that I'll let others debate.
parce que la France respecte les traditions des différentes régions qui la compose, bien ou pas c est a discuter mais certaines mentalités sont à des années lumieres les unes des autres, on parle des massacre de dauphins en islande ou des asiatiques qui maltraitent chiens et chats avant de les bouffer, les Musulmans qui égorgent des centaines de moutons dans les rues pour leur fetes religieuses ?
Hi D ... What a pleasure to see you start this journey into the world of Francis Cabrel... Thank you for this focus. For me, he is one of the very best French lyricists of the last 50 years and a brilliant guitarist of simplicity. 👍👏👍
Bonjour Oncle D, (V.O. = Version Originale) Magnifique chanson, magnifique artiste, parolier, compositeur, chanteur. Comme J.J. Goldman, il remplie toutes les cases. Tu devrais essayer « Double Tour - Carte Postale (live) » disponible sur la chaîne de Francis Cabrel. Une magnifique chanson qui parle de la désertification des zones rurales et du temps qui passe emportant avec lui les souvenirs, les cultures, les différences, pour créer un monde uniforme, notamment à cause de la télévision (à l'époque où cette chanson a été écrite, l'internet n'avait pas encore rejoint les foyers en France). Paix, les gens. ☮👈😎
Bravo sir. Ils sont tous des connards ! What a sentence ! And I like you are smart, instantly understanding what was this is about, and finding out that this was from the bull point of view. I saw some of your work and I believe it is because you are really interested of the french culture works. Francis Cabrel, by the way, is a great artist, lyricist, composer and performer. Oh and also. VO or V.O. means version originale. As is VOST version originale sous-titrée, c'est à dire : in the original language.
One of our folk rock heroes in France. This song is a great politic statement. Seen him more than 10 times live with his awesome musicians. This song is always played at each concert. So many jewels to discover from Francis for you. Try " Mademoiselle l'aventure "
I heard this song all my childhood without paying attention to the words. It was here, today, that I took the time to listen to them, and I'm not going to lie to you, I had tears in my eyes. I knew that this song denounced the cruelty of corida... But not so brutally :')
VO = Version Original (native language) 4'23 "ce soir la femme du torero dormira sur ses deux oreilles" in Bull fight a torero who won the fight get the ears and tail of the bull, with this sentence the animal signals its intention to win the fight and win the bullfighter's ears and tail.... it's a very sad and beautyfull song
Other from Francis Cabrel : Petite Marie / Je l'aime à mourir / Encore et encore / Sarbacane / La cabane du pêcheur / ... A great poet and musician... quite underrated, even in France.
I saw bullfighting once in Southern France, I was 12 and my parents took me with them (!). I threw up. The tradition goes back to the Mithraic religion in the Roman Empire. A bull was sacrificed during their rituals. Another thing: the lancer (picador) horses. They wear protective gear, except on their belly. Quite often, the bull is strong enough to bring the horse down and eviscerate it.
That song and lyrics gave me chills. A tear wanted to drop from one of my eye. I think VO mean original version. Maybe a famous cover exist somewhere. IDK.
You must continue your reactions to Francis Cabrel. He is one of the great contemporary French composer and singer. There is so much to choose from as his repertoire is quite impressive.
En plus ils avancent l’excuse de la tradition. Alors que c’est une tradition purement espagnole et que eux comment à l’interdire, comme en Catalogne par exemple. Est-ce que ce monde est sérieux ? 😢
@@antibash691 Le monde est de plus en plus sérieux puisque les pays d'Amérique latine aussi abolissent la corrida l'un après l'autre, mais la France n'est pas sérieuse, toujours aussi conne 😐
En écoutant ce vidéo j'ai réalisé pour la première fois que c'était l'histoire du taureau et ce même si j'écoute cette chanson depuis 1988 et que je la trouve très belle, je ne m'étais jamais arrêter à écouter les paroles... Merci
4:28 _"La femme du torero dormira sur ses deux oreilles"_ (wife will sleep soundly): Literrally _"sleep over one's two ears"_ -> When bullfighters win, they get rewarded with the bulls' parts according to how "well" they fought. Getting the bull's two ears is this kind of reward.
And the torero's wife won't have to stay awake due to her husband's "tail"... Ai No Corrida film reference. Francis connaît ses classiques et l'art du non-dit.
Looove your réactions bro.. 👍😉.. Mr Cabrel is like an icon in France for many people.. The main reason is the precision of the melody and the poetic style of thrue lyrics combine..
The southern French accent with the Gipsy Spanish finish make the sens of this song even stronger, you know it's a sad tradition that some southern place in France keep maintening, same arround the border between Spain and France.
I'm surprised you never heard those words Corrida/torrero those are spanish but basically, all was in the song title. VO simply means Version Originale, but here, it's non sense, there isnt several versions, I think that would just mean there is english subtitles ? France use a lot the dubbed french language, but lots prefer the english with french subtitles, or so called VF, VO, and VOST. But you're right we call "Veau" the cow's baby, but it's not the same. Corrida is from spain but is also a thing in south of france, for historical reasons they are kinda protected but lots hate and fight them, probably more in France that Spain. Francis Cabrel was already aged when he wrote this masterpiece, his first succes were from the 80s. Corrida was highly discussed in france, basicaly it's forbidden except for some south town, because cruaulty is against french rules, but it's so old they kept it there for "cultural exception"
@@ninjawpb version originale ne veut pas dire qu'il y a plusieurs versions. Ça veut dire dans la langue originale. Comme tu le dis après il y a la vf (version traduite en français) et dès que c'est pas en français mais dans la langue dans laquelle ça a été tourné/enregistré, c'est de la vo (version originale). Du coup la chanson est bien en vo ici puisque originellement en français.
Je suis fan de votre chaîne , ça fait du bien de voir un américain qui aime la musique française... Francis Cabrel est un de nos plus fantastiques poètes chanteur...j'espère que vous écouterez sa chanson " je l'aimais, je l'aime et je l'aimerais"
Good choice of song. Thanks for the review. I strongly recommend other songs from this guy. Francis Cabrel is very famous in France and has a huge list of other songs like Sarbacane, Petite Marie, La Dame de Haute Savoie, C'est écrit, l'encre de tes yeux... Mostly melancolic songs.
J'adore votre réaction! C'est tellement de la barbarie, c'est inhumain et j'adore Francis Cabrel, il a tant de belles chansons qui nous aident à nous sentir moins seul avec notre sensibilité dans ce monde de fous.
Ça s'est sûr, on nous présente ça comme un combat contre une bête sauvage, sauf que ce n'est pas un combat parce que tout est organisé pour que le torero gagne à coup sûr. La bête sauvage c'est lui.
Merci Mr D❤ you’re french is great. And this song of Cabrel is my favorite. I’m against corrida or every fight whit animal. That’s barbarian behaviour. Thank you !!
I believe in english "VO" would translate with "original soundtrack". We usually use it for movies in order to distinguish the dubbed version from the original one. Hope my english is clear enough... :)
VO stand for Version Originale. Then VO for a French song means the song is in French, VO for a movie means the movie has not been post synchronised into another language.
04:21 That line "La femme du torero dormira sur ses deux oreilles." is amazing. It means two things, the expression "dormir sur les deux oreilles" (sleeping on both ears) meaning sleeping well and the fact that after killing the bull, they cut the ear as a trophy
Thank you so much. This song make me cry, Always... Fortunatly in my area in south est of France, bullfight are less and less attractive. Hope this will be forbiden as soon as possible.
the Portuguese have a similar game but they do not kill the bull - no spears, no swords, they just taunt the bull and run for their life. a very acrobatic sport. with nobody killed unless accidental.
The two songs proposed at the end of the video (L'aigle noir & Les cactus) are very good, very different from each other, but you should listen to them, Cabrel has made many other very beautiful songs like (Petite Marie, Je t'aimais je t'aime et je t'aimerai, La cabane du pêcheur,....)
So the translation is understandably missing a double entendre when Francis Cabrel sings: "ce soir, la femme du torero dormira sur ses deux oreilles" translated correctly as: "tonight the torero's wife will sleep soundly". The double entendre is in the French expression "dormir sur ses deux oreilles" which literally translates as "sleeping on your two ears" which in this song refers ironically to the Spanish tradition of La Corrida where at the end of the bull fight, when the bull is vanquished, the ears and tail of the bull are severed to be offered to the matadors. So what Francis Cabrel really means is "unlike me - the bull - the torero's wife will sleep on her two ears both literally and figuratively because her husband will be alive and I won't be after he collects my ears".

la plus belle chanson contre cette barbarie humaine 🥰
To give some insight on a verse of the song: he sings "Ce soir la femme du torrero dormira sur ses deux oreilles".
In French, as you may know, "dormir sur ses deux oreilles" means to have a really good sleep.
But he uses this expression to refer to the barbaric tradition in which the torrero cuts the bulls ears' off at the end of the fight, while he's still alive, to take them as a trophy.
Il y égalementi un non-dit grivois, car outre les deux oreilles la queue est aussi coupée, donc la femme du torero dormira sur ses deux oreilles car la queue du torero ne sera pas là pour la tenir éveillée.
Wow je savais pas ça ! Merci !
Bravo à vous cher monsieur , je suis tout à fait d'accord avec vous , la corrida est une honte pour l'humanité , cette chanson est magnifique !
C'est sans doute la cinquantième fois que j'écoute cette chanson et pourtant je verse une larme quasi à chaque fois: le fait que ça soit dans ma langue maternelle et que le narrateur soit le taureau, ça me bouleverse profondément.
It's probably the fiftieth time I've listened to this song, and yet I shed a tear almost every time: the fact that it's in my native language and that the narrator is the bull moves me deeply.
Moi c'est cette chanson qui m'a fait prendre conscience de toute l'horreur de la corrida. Avant ça ne me tracassais pas plus que ça.
Moi aussi, ça me fait chialer.
J'ai des larmes qui coulent chaque fois que j'entends cette chanson😢
Everybody likes this guy too here ! Francis Cabrel is a classic in France ! When I was a child my father introduced me to this singer on the radio. Wonderful ! He is a poet and a person of integrity 🙏🏻

Francis Cabrel , l'artiste qu'on entend jamais à la radio et qui pourtant à des chanson magnifique !
Si, sarbacane !

j'ai le même ressenti ! et j'ai de moins en moins de patience et de compassion pour les pratiquants et les aficionados
Clairement 💔😢

Oh, VO = Version originale
As i began crying on the grave line you stopped and said: "C'est parce qu'ils sont tous cons!" I haven't laughed this hard for days haha, thank you!

He has a RUclips channel with his songs on it (wow, how fun and original…) and… he recently started a video tutorials serie on how to play his songs at the guitar. This song is one of the first two videos to this day.
This guy humbly made about 10 to 15 songs that are timeless classics. Please react to more of his stuff.
From the same album "Je t'aimais , je t'aime et je t'aimerai" a simply and pure love song. so magical.
an absolutely beautiful song
Magnifique chanson et un chanteur sublime ❤
It's a song from the nineties. Still crying each time I listen it.
J adore cette chanson tellement réelle ces corridas sont immondes pauvres petites bêtes là souffrance Qu ils doivent ressentir j en ai la chair de poule et j habite dans le sud paix et gentillesse à tous les animaux 🤗🤗🗼🗼🇫🇷
Cette chanson est magnifique, en effet, comment pouvons nous danser autour d'une tombe?
The drummer on this song _(and the whole album)_ is the talented *Manu Katche,* who worked with *Peter Gabriel* among other famous artists.
Always bring more than a tears lessoning to that song.so so beautiful
I can't listen to that song without crying... And with the singer of the Gipsy King at the end, it's beautiful.
There aren't many songs that have made me cry, but this one did and still does. Samedi soir sur la terre is a masterpiece.
One of my favourite Cabrel songs ( with "Petite Marie" and "Madame n'aime pas")

If one of these towns stops doing bullfighting for just one year it will lose the term of "tradition" and will have to stop
Anti-bullfighting is also an uninterrupted tradition in the south of France since the 19th century. So they should respect this tradition !
Tant mieux
parce que la France respecte les traditions des différentes régions qui la compose, bien ou pas c est a discuter mais certaines mentalités sont à des années lumieres les unes des autres, on parle des massacre de dauphins en islande ou des asiatiques qui maltraitent chiens et chats avant de les bouffer, les Musulmans qui égorgent des centaines de moutons dans les rues pour leur fetes religieuses ?

Si le taureau avait une chance, cela ferait longtemps que la corrida serait interdite.
Ça s'est sûr, on nous présente ça comme un combat contre une bête sauvage, sauf que ce n'est pas un combat parce que tout est organisé pour que le torero gagne à coup sûr. La bête sauvage c'est lui.

I’m against corrida or every fight whit animal. That’s barbarian behaviour.
Thank you !!
I believe in english "VO" would translate with "original soundtrack". We usually use it for movies in order to distinguish the dubbed version from the original one. Hope my english is clear enough... :)
Votre francais est parfait. Cette chanson est parfaite, si juste, si melancolique. No blood traditions at all !!! Wars are enough !!!❤❤❤❤😢😢😢😢😢😢
VO stand for Version Originale.
Then VO for a French song means the song is in French, VO for a movie means the movie has not been post synchronised into another language.
Veau is calf. VO is original version (version originale).
VO means Version Originale "Original Soundtrack".
❤ superbe chanson sur cette honte de Corrida 😔
'VO' in the video title means 'Version Originale', so the original soundtrack (in french)
And watch this, most moving stuff!! ❤
Every time I listen to this song, I have tears in my eyes.
You are smart, great reaction. I love Francis Cabrel, he's an amazing song writer and interpret
04:21 That line "La femme du torero dormira sur ses deux oreilles." is amazing. It means two things, the expression "dormir sur les deux oreilles" (sleeping on both ears) meaning sleeping well and the fact that after killing the bull, they cut the ear as a trophy
Thank you so much. This song make me cry, Always... Fortunatly in my area in south est of France, bullfight are less and less attractive. Hope this will be forbiden as soon as possible.
5:55 you managed to make me laugh at the saddest line for me 😂

the Portuguese have a similar game but they do not kill the bull - no spears, no swords, they just taunt the bull and run for their life. a very acrobatic sport. with nobody killed unless accidental.
Francis Cabrel is the goat! 🐐🔥
I mean, in this one he was a bull ^^
Je ne comprends pas 🤔
@@Brigitte-myo Goat = Greatest of All Time 😂
Ok merci ,
je suis une quiche 😊
Cabrel : j adore
La chanson, contre la corrida : très émouvante @@jonathanratel3150
The two songs proposed at the end of the video (L'aigle noir & Les cactus) are very good, very different from each other, but you should listen to them, Cabrel has made many other very beautiful songs like (Petite Marie, Je t'aimais je t'aime et je t'aimerai, La cabane du pêcheur,....)
So the translation is understandably missing a double entendre when Francis Cabrel sings: "ce soir, la femme du torero dormira sur ses deux oreilles" translated correctly as: "tonight the torero's wife will sleep soundly".
The double entendre is in the French expression "dormir sur ses deux oreilles" which literally translates as "sleeping on your two ears" which in this song refers ironically to the Spanish tradition of La Corrida where at the end of the bull fight, when the bull is vanquished, the ears and tail of the bull are severed to be offered to the matadors. So what Francis Cabrel really means is "unlike me - the bull - the torero's wife will sleep on her two ears both literally and figuratively because her husband will be alive and I won't be after he collects my ears".
