A classic that moves many French people to tears, triggering off melancholy memories and nostalgia about their bygone childhood and long-lost loved ones.
Exactement Sébastien 🥺😢 Bravo pour ton anglais👏👏👏👏 My sis who actually lives in NYC writes as well as you do🙂 This song is drastically sad and you're right remind me my childhood and personnal grief...
Et je pense que le ressenti n’est pas le même pour un quelqu’un qui ne parle pas français, quand on connaît l’artiste on a parfois du mal à se dire qu’il puisse donner une telle émotion car il faut dire c’est une des seules ou il n’est pas " vulgaire "

Now you've touched a very sensitive chord in every French (which I am). This is one of the most important and heartfelt songs by a rebel who pours out his love to his little daughter, whom you see in the clip.

Another wonderful song... So much nostalgia in his voice... The last words give me goosebumps every time I hear them (le temps est assassin ,et emporte avec lui les rires des enfants...). Small precision about the candy "Mistral gagnant" (I don't know if somebody already said it): once finished, you could open the paper bag, and if there was written "gagnant" on it (winner), you could have one for free! Many thanks for this reaction!
Pour moi les meilleurs frissons grâce à Renaud c'est "le seul vrai enfer qu'on avait sur terre, il était dans le ciel de nos pauvres marelles, on avait dix ans pis on ignorait qu'un jour on s'rait grand et qu'on mourirait" (ou alors chanson pour pierrot, je peux pas l'écouter sans pleurer)
💖💖💖💖 mon père était un grand fan de Renaud et lors de ses funérailles on a passé Mistral gagnant...un pur moment d'émotions que je n'oublierai jamais !
Thousands of parents are fighting back tears, and so am I. Yes Dereck, and one drop rolled down for me, thinking to my kids too old now but too young yet to enjoy it. It s a treasure kept by the time past.
Magnifique chanson sur le temps qui passe en emportant avec lui nos rires d'enfants. Un regard empli de nostalgie, tourné vers cette insouciance salvatrice et cependant érodée par les affres de la vie.
Everything in that song is simple and beautiful. For me the most beautiful French song ever. I love it for a long time and more especially since I have a daughter and I can feel that song.
Just nostalgic about this song 😊 it feels that our naive, pure childhood is very far away. The time when you can go the baker or tobacco shop to buy some cheap candies and just play around without any worries.
ENFIN !!!!!! Une chanson magnifique..."Te raconter enfin qu'il faut aimer la vie et l'aimer même si , le temps est assassin et emporte avec lui les rires des enfants et les mistral gagnants" 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖.Comme beaucoup de chansons de Renaud.....Et je confirme que la version live de Lara Fabian est aussi sublime, notamment les paroles qu'elle prononce juste avant de commencer à chanter......💗🤍🤍
In fact the song is dealing with the nostalgic look back to childhood. The singer is thinking back of his own childhood through his daughter. Names of sweets that nowadays have disappeared, talking about the child’s mother, and picking up souvenirs from what he was doing with her daughter that are nonsense. This song, full of slang language, definitely shows the love a father can feel towards his daughter. The piano playing put a powerful emphasis on the whole theme. A past time that will not come back, lost, tragical. It takes to one’s guts and it personally makes me cry… That is the very only, most relevant song from Renaud we should remember. Mistral was a bag with mint powder, and you had a licorice straw. So when you take this, you feel like it is a fresh wind. Mistral is also the name of a wind. Inside or in the back of the bag sometimes was written “Gagnant” (won / winning)and you could have another one for free as a prize.
Yes, a classic song now in France. Thank you ! And now please react to "Miss Maggie" with a bad electric guitar and sarcastic lyrics against machism and Margareth Thatcher, a former British Prime Minister. But you have to get a very good translation. A lot of nice slang words !
Yes so simple song, just a piano, a good singer and good deep lyrics. A great artist doesn't need to be complicated. The best song of him a think is "Morgane de toi". So beautiful.
Dans le top 5 des plus grandes chansons françaises ❤️ merci pour la réaction Tu peux en faire encore en faire une bonne centaine de chansons de Renaud tellement il y’en a
The Mistral Gagant was a candy that came in the form of a paper bag containing a sweet, fragrant and sparkling powder on the tongue. ... A liquorice straw was inserted into this bag
Un grand artiste Renaud....Un poète, une voix, des textes, des émotions, de la nostalgie mais aussi un très beau regard de tendresse et une âme d enfant....Merci Dereck 💚🌟💚 Le Coco Boer, dans les marques de friandises qu il cite dans la chanson c est de la poudre de réglisse, dans une petite boîte ronde en plastique avec différentes couleurs et un couvercle en métal sur lequel était gravé Coco Boer. Très bon quand on aime ! L usine en Ardèche au Sud de la France en vallée du Rhône (fleuve), exactement au Pouzin a fermé il y a quelques années. J en parlais hier, synchronicité ☺️
THE MOST FAVORITE SONG for the 70-90 french generations ! Make us remember our child times, with beautifull and rock style, simplicity and tender. Another Renaud' song with great emotions like this one, is "LOLA" who talk about his little daughter, on a great ballade-song.
What a wonderful song... Thank you for sharing it on your channel. Could you please react to Renaud's song "Morgane de toi" (1983)? This song is dedicated to his daughter Lolita. I find it as touching and delicate as the song "Mistral Gagnant".
this song always gave me goosebumps? Only 102? It is a huge classic though, I think every single french can connect with it, it's a kind of magic. Thanks for that
you're right Dereck, it's an intimate song or a father and daughter are in a park, with birds, and tells her to her daughter her childhood and candy he had in her time when he was a little boy .👍👍😊😊
I think it's exactly what has inspired this piano composition ...a child musical box. When we listen to this piano melody we can't stop to think how we open a musical box and see an opera dancer in a tutu making pointes while turning on herself with the arms also stretched out in point above her head. And this melody played with the so characteristic sound of a musical box.
Hi Derek. « La pêche à la ligne » is maybe the best weitten song by Renaud. Essier words to understand or translate, fantastic narration, and tears guaranteed. Best regards. Thanks for your videos, I like them
I once heard Renaud said something like he sometimes was messed up and feeling depressed because he couldn't cope with the loss of innocence, the good days gone by etc. That's what this song is all about and that's how you can tell this guy is genuine, full of sense and sensitivity. Beautiful nostalgic song. Perfect. A classic.
Hands down the best song about childhood. Gives me the chills every single time. Forget Lara Fabian and listen to the Vanessa Paradis version. 1000 times better
Hi Dereck ! You Can listen too what a surprising group that is POW WOW and their song DEVENIR CHEYENNE. 4 mens who sometimes do all the song and the instruments with their only voices. DEVENIR CHEYENNE de POW WOW. Thank you very much. Have a beautiful day
Thank s for the video and making America discover french music, I m French, Renaud is one off my favorite singer like you say all off his songs are like this one telling a personal story, if you can check out LA ballade nord irlandaise
hello , i m french and excuse me for my english . So RENAUD is a french singer , who definies himself with a bad voice , but we love him because he is a real poet , lyricist who puts his word to tell beautiful slices of live , or rebellious in relation to the system . this song is a real ode to love . thanks to you too
"Te raconter la vie et l'aimer même si le temps est assassin et emporte avec lui les rires des enfants..." Cela me donne toujours autant d'émotions ce passage. Je vais chialer un bon coup et je reviens ^^

Hello Dereck, Thank you so much for this new reaction about our national Renaud. Fun fact: Renaud's famous ballad *Mistral Gagnant* was voted “French song of all time”, ahead of *Jacques Brel - Ne me quitte pas* and *Barbara - L'aigle Noir.* (The black eagle) by French people. Another fun fact: In this official video, it's the own daughter of Renaud, you see (Lolita Sechan). Yes, I can wait for Lara's version ...No problem. 😋 (Yes, it's well me asked specially this reaction) That's All, Folks!
Several years ago, Renaud told in interview that, when he composed this song, he told his wife he had made a song about their just born daughter but wasn't sure it would make a great song for the public to hear and he made her listen to it. After the listening, she answer him : if you don't sing it, I leave you. And so he sang and Mistral gagnant was born.
To sit on bench for 5 minutes alongside you, To watch people as they go by, To talk with you of good time that have gone or will comeback holding your hand and feeling your little fingers, Giving food to idiotic pigeons And faking kicks for fun, To listen to laugh that cracks up the walls But really heals my wounds, To tell you how I was as a kid, The wonderful sweets that we stole from the shop, Car-en-Sac and Mints, one franc caramels, and the Mistral Gagnants. (Mistral Gagnants being a type of sweets.)
To walk under the rain 5 minutes alongside you, To watch life as it goes by, To tell you about earth as my eyes devour you, To talk about your mother a little, And jumping in puddles to get her annoyed, Ruining our shoes and laughing, To hear your laugh as the sea's sound, To stop and turn around, Te tell you about past Carambars et the Coco Bohères, The real Roudoudous that cut our lips, And ruined our teeth, And the Mistral Gagnants. (Roudoudous, Carambars and Coco Bohères are all sweets.)
To sit on a bench 5 minutes alongside you, And to watch the sun as it leaves, To talk about the good times that are gone and I don't care, To tell you that the bad guys aren't us, That if I am crazy it is only because of your eyes, And they benefit from being two, To hear your laugh rise up so high, That away the bird's cry flies, To tell you to love life, Love it even if, time is a murderer, That takes away children's laugter, And the Mistral Gagnants, And the Mistral Gagnants.
A mon avis, parmi de nombreuses très belles chansons de Renaud, celle-ci est ma préférée, c'est un hymne à la vie qui passe, et une très belle chanson d'amour à sa fille. Sa femme a bien fait de le "forcer" à inclure cette chanson dans son album. Cette chanson est devenue un classique et encore aujourd'hui elle est connue de toutes et tous en France.
He wrote this song for his daughter had it listened to his wife on the phone she told him take out the song where I leave you!! And it became this beautiful song that's a classic to me
"Mistral gagnant" is a name of a candy that no longer exists, but the mistral is also the name of a cold and strong wind that blows in the South of France. Mistral gagnant could be translated as "the winning winds". A wind that blows everything away, a bit like the time blowing away children's laughter.
Lors de sa sortie, Mistal Gagnant était sur toutes les radio et TV. Je suis étonné des chiffres que tu as. Bizarre, bizarre. Thx for your work and videos.
Franchement je ne savais pas qu'elle était sortie en 85... Je me souviens qu'elle était souvent a la radio vers 90-91... Peut-être qu'elle a été "redécouverte" quelques années après la sortie de l'album ?
Il y a quelques jours (était-ce plutôt hier ou avant-hier ?) j'avais pensé à Dereck réagissant à "Mistral Gagnant". *BOUM* La voici. Malgré le fait que Renaud a rajeuni niveau voix (Pour empêcher le copyright peut être ?) cela ne m'a pas évité dès les premières secondes de... enfin... vous savez, comme beaucoup de gens quoi. Franchement, c'est l'une des plus belles chansons françaises qui soit.
HI DERECK RENAUD IS FABULOUS ARTIST I LOVE TO "MORGANE DE TOI" 1983 "DANS MON HLM" 1980 "LAISSE BETON" 1977 "IT IS NOT BECAUSE YOU ARE" 1980 THANKS FOR YOUR REACT DERECK
''Et entendre ton rire comme on entend la mer, s'arrêter, repartir en arrière.'' This verse breaks me. I lost my little girl when she was very young. This was the song I wanted to sing to her, but I never could.
C'est très touchant. On ne peut évidemment pas se mettre à votre si on n'a pas connu une telle tragédie. Néanmoins, j'y compatis avec toute la sensibilité dont je suis capable pour vous dire : "Condoléances..." Même si ce simple mot résonne si faiblement face à un tel tsunami dans une vie. Paix à son âme.
@@LetsChillPage Merci. Cela dit, je dois préciser que ma fille est encore vivante. Mais, je n'ai plus accès à elle. Toutefois, pour moi, ça a été comme un deuil, deuil que je vis toujours. Je m'excuse pour la confusion qu'a créé mon message. Mais votre réponse me touche quand même.
@@MaxLeGrand33 Je comprends parfaitement ce que vous voulez exprimer. Il vous reste au moins l'espoir qu'un jour cette situation puisse tourner à votre avantage et vous permette de la revoir. C'est ce que je vous souhaite en tout cas.
He doesn't says "ruined our teeths" but "fu**d up our teeths" (but I guess you couldn't say that on youtube). That what's so great about Renaud, a mix of poetry (sometimes, but always good writing) and very familiar language, which is why we are all connected to his song, they feel really close to who we all are.
Amazing to know his wife 's react 30 years ago . Same french people don t know this fact , i though i was almost alone to know this . Great Great Channel Dereck . Try LA TERRE EST RONDE from Orelsan , his easiest song , journalist call him french Eminem
It's interesting, to think that I grew up with it... And decades later I see someone both grown up and with a different mother tongue react to it... It's wild.

Another fun fact: In this official video, it's the own daughter of Renaud, you see (Lolita Sechan).
Yes, I can wait for Lara's version ...No problem. 😋 (Yes, it's well me asked specially this reaction)
That's All, Folks!
This song was voted the most beautiful French song of all time in 2014 ❤
Several years ago, Renaud told in interview that, when he composed this song, he told his wife he had made a song about their just born daughter but wasn't sure it would make a great song for the public to hear and he made her listen to it. After the listening, she answer him : if you don't sing it, I leave you. And so he sang and Mistral gagnant was born.
To sit on bench for 5 minutes alongside you,
To watch people as they go by,
To talk with you of good time that have gone or will comeback holding your hand and feeling your little fingers,
Giving food to idiotic pigeons
And faking kicks for fun,
To listen to laugh that cracks up the walls
But really heals my wounds,
To tell you how I was as a kid,
The wonderful sweets that we stole from the shop,
Car-en-Sac and Mints, one franc caramels,
and the Mistral Gagnants. (Mistral Gagnants being a type of sweets.)
To walk under the rain 5 minutes alongside you,
To watch life as it goes by,
To tell you about earth as my eyes devour you,
To talk about your mother a little,
And jumping in puddles to get her annoyed,
Ruining our shoes and laughing,
To hear your laugh as the sea's sound,
To stop and turn around,
Te tell you about past Carambars et the Coco Bohères,
The real Roudoudous that cut our lips,
And ruined our teeth,
And the Mistral Gagnants. (Roudoudous, Carambars and Coco Bohères are all sweets.)
To sit on a bench 5 minutes alongside you,
And to watch the sun as it leaves,
To talk about the good times that are gone and I don't care,
To tell you that the bad guys aren't us,
That if I am crazy it is only because of your eyes,
And they benefit from being two,
To hear your laugh rise up so high,
That away the bird's cry flies,
To tell you to love life,
Love it even if, time is a murderer,
That takes away children's laugter,
And the Mistral Gagnants,
And the Mistral Gagnants.
A mon avis, parmi de nombreuses très belles chansons de Renaud, celle-ci est ma préférée, c'est un hymne à la vie qui passe, et une très belle chanson d'amour à sa fille. Sa femme a bien fait de le "forcer" à inclure cette chanson dans son album. Cette chanson est devenue un classique et encore aujourd'hui elle est connue de toutes et tous en France.
Hey guys, did you note how Dereck said "Mistral gagnant" ? He is definitvely a french speaker. 👍👍👍
He wrote this song for his daughter had it listened to his wife on the phone she told him take out the song where I leave you!! And it became this beautiful song that's a classic to me
"Mistral gagnant" is a name of a candy that no longer exists, but the mistral is also the name of a cold and strong wind that blows in the South of France. Mistral gagnant could be translated as "the winning winds". A wind that blows everything away, a bit like the time blowing away children's laughter.
And in provençal Mistral means "Master"
Lors de sa sortie, Mistal Gagnant était sur toutes les radio et TV. Je suis étonné des chiffres que tu as. Bizarre, bizarre. Thx for your work and videos.
Franchement je ne savais pas qu'elle était sortie en 85... Je me souviens qu'elle était souvent a la radio vers 90-91... Peut-être qu'elle a été "redécouverte" quelques années après la sortie de l'album ?
Il y a quelques jours (était-ce plutôt hier ou avant-hier ?) j'avais pensé à Dereck réagissant à "Mistral Gagnant". *BOUM* La voici.
Malgré le fait que Renaud a rajeuni niveau voix (Pour empêcher le copyright peut être ?) cela ne m'a pas évité dès les premières secondes de... enfin... vous savez, comme beaucoup de gens quoi.
Franchement, c'est l'une des plus belles chansons françaises qui soit.
HI DERECK RENAUD IS FABULOUS ARTIST I LOVE TO
"MORGANE DE TOI" 1983

THANKS FOR YOUR REACT DERECK
In FRANCE , everybody love " Mistral gagnant " ! Very nostalgie! Merci
''Et entendre ton rire comme on entend la mer, s'arrêter, repartir en arrière.'' This verse breaks me. I lost my little girl when she was very young. This was the song I wanted to sing to her, but I never could.
C'est très touchant. On ne peut évidemment pas se mettre à votre si on n'a pas connu une telle tragédie. Néanmoins, j'y compatis avec toute la sensibilité dont je suis capable pour vous dire : "Condoléances..." Même si ce simple mot résonne si faiblement face à un tel tsunami dans une vie. Paix à son âme.
@@LetsChillPage Merci. Cela dit, je dois préciser que ma fille est encore vivante. Mais, je n'ai plus accès à elle. Toutefois, pour moi, ça a été comme un deuil, deuil que je vis toujours. Je m'excuse pour la confusion qu'a créé mon message. Mais votre réponse me touche quand même.
@@MaxLeGrand33 Je comprends parfaitement ce que vous voulez exprimer. Il vous reste au moins l'espoir qu'un jour cette situation puisse tourner à votre avantage et vous permette de la revoir. C'est ce que je vous souhaite en tout cas.
@@LetsChillPage Merci. Si vous croyez en Dieu priez pour nous.
He doesn't says "ruined our teeths" but "fu**d up our teeths" (but I guess you couldn't say that on youtube). That what's so great about Renaud, a mix of poetry (sometimes, but always good writing) and very familiar language, which is why we are all connected to his song, they feel really close to who we all are.
I think it's cause Google Translation doesn't know this translation. 😋
this piano is very cool!
Amazing to know his wife 's react 30 years ago . Same french people don t know this fact , i though i was almost alone to know this . Great Great Channel Dereck . Try LA TERRE EST RONDE from Orelsan , his easiest song , journalist call him french Eminem
It's interesting, to think that I grew up with it... And decades later I see someone both grown up and with a different mother tongue react to it... It's wild.
A Huge classic song in french songs ! What you can not translate is his street-french specific words and argot who gives another dimension to the song
But you can translate "argot" and "street-french" by... slang...
Renaud sing his personal feeling... Realy
