It's great, but they could've made something better if they would've used another topic or not exagerate this one, the giant bird looked pretty cool though
For all the English people, in the French chorus, they say: "Et c'est comme ça qu'on s'aime, s'aime, s'aime" And that's how we love, love, love " C'est comme ça qu'on consomme, 'somme 'somme" That's how we buy, buy, buy. But Stromae is so a genius that, in French the "That's how we buy" the "buy" that is "consomme" in French, the last two syllables ("somme") continues to echoes, and "somme" also means "are". So in the original chorus, with the auditory illusion, it sounds like: "C'est comme ça qu'on somme (que nous somme) " So basically, "that's how we are" Sorry if it's bad written, I'm not the best at English.
Try the other films by Sylvain Chomet (the guy behind the animation here) like Les triplettes de belleville, La vielle dame et les pigeons (short film on youtube) x)
I love how deep he makes his Videos. Social media (twitter bird) is killing all human relations, makes us believe that we are happy, when in fact we're all alone. Love this song
hmmm depends social networks get their advantages, it all depends about how we use it, I personnally use Facebook for keep contact with some friends and organize some ways to meet eachother, then it can be used well too ^_^
This might be realistic to his own experience. The way famous people (with thousands and thousands of followers) experience social media can be radically different from the way the average person experiences it. Most research points to social media making us more connected rather than less connected but that doesn't mean all relationships on social media are rich, many can feel just as hollow, like the people who we friended because they went to high school with us but haven't communicated with in 10 years. Stromae may seek personal connection but as a public figure social media doesn't really make it easier to make connections because he might constantly be bombarded with tweets. I do think he tries to make a broader statement as the video goes on. I'm not sure it necessarily hits the mark though.
when i was 8, i never understood what stromae’s motives were no matter how many times i watched and listened to the lyrics, now that i am 15, i realize that he has describe and resumed our generation exactly how it is, so raw and so true, how the screens, the social media captivate everyone and i think that this idea was genius, not only for its concept but also for its warning to the viewers.
I love that the Twitter bird's beak is animated to sync with the beat. It really represents that background, incoherent, omnipresent noise of social media. That it looks so damned angry all the time suggests most of that noise is rage. Amazing little touch.
Same! I also had a weird theory that in the beginning when the Twitter bird opened its beak, it was sometimes happy or sometimes angry. As it would represents the times when person using the twitter would ‘tweet’ their thoughts to the public both with positive or negative thoughts. But as time progresses, the twitter bird most of the time just open its beak in a angry like manner as it could mean that the person is getting very negative most of the time.
@@AnnSpecter I didn't even notice that! You're right, it suddenly turns dark, doesn't it? Goes from birdsong into the beat. Representing the downturn as someone is infected with Twitter's negativity. I mean, maybe we're overanalysing, but ain't that part of the fun? XD
This song was years ago when internet addiction was at a really low rate. This just showes that it was so easy to see what would come for us and that we nurture addiction till it takes control for us.

dude i freaking love the message of this video. how the obsession of social media can can control our actions, relationship, etc the song was amazing and the animator did a stunning job
Yeah being leftovers. It's kinda sad to see all these people sharing a constant flow of pictures on Twitter or Instagram just by the impression that it makes their life more interesting. I'm a computer scientist and a huge gamer, but I've taken a huge step back from taking pictures, I'd rather live the moment than immortalize something I've not lived fully anyway. Social networks have completely overstepped their purpose, and it's not even on them, it's on their users. The technology itself isn't bad and makes some good thing (sharing with distant relatives, organizing and keping up to date with news on what you like) but people have made it integral to their life to the point it might as well be stitched to them. There's also the reaction to the little girl that is interesting. At the beginning she's out of the system, she doesn't have an account or a device, and no care is given to her by the "social bird", she doesn't deserve to be even considered.
@@awakewemaiga6831 je viens de revoir mais quelqu'un t'as déjà donne la ref^^, perso ma version préféré de cette chanson est celle chanté par nana Mouskouri.
Nobody’s talking about the fact that this is originally from an opera, called Carmen by Georges Bizet and the song is (wonderfully) remixed from this opera ? The original music is also mesmerizing ✨
I KNEW it sounded like that song!! I was like ‘did stromae use a sample from that old opera song? (I didnt know it was called Carmen until I just searched)
I’m learning french, Carmen brought me here, but in light of how relevant this is, I think that this music is way ahead of its time, je prendrai garde à moi.
Stromae is not a singer, he is an artist. He talks about real problems of the world and the humans. He leads his people by telling the truth by his art. Such a genius. Belgian people should know the value of him more. Greetings from Turkey to Stromae and French&Belgian people.
I still remember that I was so traumatized when I first watched this MV maybe not understanding the true message of the MV at that time, but now I watch this 7 years later, the power that social media has and how people easily became slaves to social media is so true. This MV is well made even the little detail that the bird came to that little girl. This MV alert the danger of social media can happen to anybody with any age.
Same...I watched it when I was in 6th grade. I got the message almost vaguely but not quite. Now that I'm older I understand to the full extent what Stromae expressed in the song
I was in like 3rd grade when this MV came out and they played it for us at assemble and I still get shivers when I hear the line about dying like rats, and the more I think about it it actually did form part of how I think about social media, they just played it cause it was a french school and Stromae was trending at the time but it has resonated through my brain for the past 9 years
Øyvind Jørgensen yeah, it's definitely a great shame as i personally love to hear songs like this, i don't mind that it is not english, i guess others don't really agree with me
Absolutely incredible song. It is so very very true. The music, the lyrics, the vocals, this is truly fantastic. A masterpiece. Un chef d'oeuvre. Bravo Stromae
My French teacher played this in class and me and my friends were shook- everyone was laughing and screaming at the same time and now this is my favorite music video
je trouve ça hyper impressionnant le nombre de personnes qui écrivent en anglais ce qui prouve bien que stromae est vraiment très fort pour avoir réussi à se faire autant connaitre à l'étranger et pas seulement dans les pays francophones je trouve ça cool :)
Jade Guilbot Ce ne sont pas forcément les meilleurs les plus connu, loin de là. La popularité tend à s'opposer au talent de plus en plus. Mais dans son cas, il est fort! :)

This song is genius in so many ways : - It's called carmen because the main melody is sampled from "L'amour est un oiseau rebelle" from the theatre play "Carmen". - It revolves around birds not only because of Twitter but also because the original song translates to "Love is a rebel bird". - The cry of the bird emulates Twitter notifications. - The hook is "Et c'est comme ça qu'on s'aime, et c'est comme ça consomme". It translates poorly in English but it's a really clever pun. - The clip is in sync with the beat of the song. I love Stromae. Sérieux je l'adore, j'ai hâte à son prochain album (oui je commence à parler français en plein milieu)

In french "consomme" or "consommation" has many meanings, and I understand that he jokes with the meanings during the song and the video. He is talking about love and in this situation "consommation" means how people relate to each other. He says that love is a son of the relationship, depends on what kind of relationship we have, love is builded by choices day by day. It's like in the offert and demand law - when somebody don't give himself to the relationship the love of the other ends. But "consomme" can mean also "to use”, so he links social medias and relationships; and can mean also "to buy", so he links the song with the consumption habits; and can mean “to end little by litte” like something being absorbed. It's possible analyzing the song from any of these points...
Stromae's music is like that poem your Literature teacher told you to dissect. A phrase can have a lot of intended meaning based on literal words, societal context, historical context, etc.
"consomme" is even "consume", like consuming things or relationships or people, burning them. And love is still a kind of consume, mostly the love for yourself. One of the meanings is that Twitter and the socials are creating a mass of self-lovers that consume themselves (I think).
Oh, I thought he was trying to get in a jab at capitalism. I'll cut some slack then. Twitter is a consumer product. Power users don't play with censored platforms and Silly Cunt Valley corporate culture reflects this. They have posters banning the use of the word user. More stitches means less riches, right? Just throw it away and buy a new one instead of fixing it or building things to last in the first place. Disgusting.
9 years later, i just understood the message he was trying to share, we did not got it at the time, we did not see the evil hidden in the shape of social media. i can write about this for hours but the animation said everything. to everyone reading, get back to reality, sleep early wake up early eat healthy reduce your time screen as much as possible, go visit someone you love, don't facetime him, take a piece of paper and write don't use notes, do any kind of sports, eat healthy, work hard , build a family, and keep everything PRIVATE, not everybody will wish good for you...
I was looking for French music to help passive learning and came across Stromae. Out of any artists I've ever heard and seen in any language, Stromae is one of the greatest. So glad I found him.
@@emilykubik115 The melody (and the first few words of the lyrics) in the beginning is from the opera Carmen by Bizet: ruclips.net/video/KJ_HHRJf0xg/видео.html
Son clip est tellement impressionant par les messages qu'il transmet, et la réflexion qu'il nous oblige à avoir. Je suis en train de redécouvrir Stromae, et ça fait un bien fou
I’ll never forget this really popular and smart Tumblr user criticizing this song for being corny and simplifying it as “old person says not to use phone a lot just like every other old person, but really they don’t get that it’s just not that serious.” I felt so silly for liking this song at the time and felt corny for thinking this was a deep message… now in 2024 the message here is still so relevant. It was always a deep and important message.
Yes but the translation French to english for this song is quite impossible ! There are more details in french with the words plays that the english translation can't reproduce
***** If you agree with me, don't contradict me. "I don't think it's about" "But I agree that the translation isn't that great"...Like ,shut the fuck up and stop commenting just because you can.
I really like that between 0:50 and 1:15 he is doing these activities alone, including his own birthday. Even though his followers were increasing. I think what the artist was trying to show was that even though your followers are growing and you feel like you have become popular, they are not really your friends.
i always loved stromae as one of my favourite french singers and this was the best thing ever. the way he depicted everything and hopefully made people realise that social media destroys you , makes you alone and then kills you. it is not only eye-opening but terrifyingly accurate
The song is great but can we also admire the Music Video. It's so creative and I love how there are many hidden meanings scattered in the video that symbolise something. It perfectly depicts how social impact actually impacts our lives slowly. There are many artists who can make a great song, but Stromae is just unique. He adds so many elements to all his songs. Each time, the ideas he comes up with are just so out of the box. He never fails to amaze me.
I remember watching this almost a decade ago and it gave me chills. Now all these years later, the message is even more relevant. Such a great social commentary.
Someone remarked somewhere that he is the Mozart of today. Sometimes I want to agree. His music is complex yet refined. His music carries message, yet is universal across languages. At least in enjoyment. Either way, he is a blessing to the Music of today.
yes i do realize that. But the social media im talking bout is where you gain followers with your selfies and just always obssessed with having good angles and lightning for one selfie to get like what?100 likes. Okay cool, like seriously whats the point of all this? I do have a youtube account obviously but where do you see a selfie exactly lol
It talks about how we will put ourselves out there and do things that end up on the Internet that makes us popular for only a little while. So we find anything else to make us popular which will get us in some drama and ultimately forgotten
If you really pay attention to the video, you can learn a lot. The bird eating his food symbolizes that society forgets to even eat, instead choosing to use social media. The bird on his back shows that Twitter weighs us down. The bird being between the two shows that it drives a wedge between us and our loved ones. The bird picking him up and carrying him on his back shows us that Twitter, or social media, has finally taken complete control over his life, to the point that he cares about literally nothing, even as it drives him into hell. Finally, his love tries to save him by reaching out to him, but she is unable to convince him to give up social media, and is crushed. Likely, she is crushed emotionally, rather than by a giant twitter bird, but the point remains the same. The video tells just as important a story as the song, and even without it, is still a perfectly comprehensible work on its own.
true its smooth af but we are paying attention on the meaning of a big ass bird eating humans then pooping them right afterwards what kind of bird is that
It adds a lot to the general deepness of this song that the melody is just like the melody in "Habanera", an aria from Carmen, which is an opera about being seduced by a lover who ultimately destroys and abandons you.
Holy shit, that's cool. Crazy how true the song's message is and how we get caught up in something so bad for us we don't realise how detrimental it is until it's killed us.
I also love how he diverges from the original melody frequently, which gives a feeling of a creation that's been copied, shared, memed, re-memed, and this is just one of its many iterations. If that wasn't intentional, I'd be surprised.
Et dire qu'il y a 6 ans j'écoutais cette chanson en m'embiançant dessus sans la comprendre. En grandissant on se rend compte que c'est non seulement ultra triste, mais une triste réalité. Très bonne chanson
I love this song.:( it reminds me when I was in 6th grade learning French and almost 80% of our school picked Spanish. I’m so happy I learned French is one of the most beautiful languages of the world. Lovely songs and lovely memories of being a child
tu pourrais m'expliquer le métaphore de cette chanson stp? je comprends plus ou moins maus je voudrais qu'on me l'éxplique plus clairement, surtout l'allusion des paroles, normalement je comprends assez façilement les métaphires dans les paroles des chansons mais là c'est un peu plus compliqué pour moi
@@tonynambs3232 en gros la chanson parle de l'effet des réseaux sociaux sur la vie des gens et comme on peut se perdre et s'éloigner des gens qui sont dans nos vies à cause de ça. C est pour ça que Stromae dit "prend garde à toi si tu t'aime, garde à moi si je m'aime" il nous dit de faire attention à se qui peut se passer à cause de nos actions
@@aikonunesdasilva3681 ta explication m'a aidé a faire mes devoirs de français, merci beaucoup, je la compris mieux! :) (j'espère que mon français est bon)
the meaning is don't let social media consume you, the big grumpy bird in the end represents that social media isn't doing anything for you you're just feeding the twitter bird your time, your life and your money

This video always creeps me out!! Stromae is a genius tho
He just told us that twitter will ruin your life if yo use it to much
@@MonchiMochiXT If you use it for the wrong reasons mainly but at the end result is ruining your private life.
@@Smertaf ueeeeee pema ouja

For all the English people, in the French chorus, they say:
"Et c'est comme ça qu'on s'aime, s'aime, s'aime"
And that's how we love, love, love
" C'est comme ça qu'on consomme, 'somme 'somme"
That's how we buy, buy, buy.
But Stromae is so a genius that, in French the "That's how we buy" the "buy" that is "consomme" in French, the last two syllables ("somme") continues to echoes, and "somme" also means "are". So in the original chorus, with the auditory illusion, it sounds like:
"C'est comme ça qu'on somme (que nous somme) "
So basically, "that's how we are"
Sorry if it's bad written, I'm not the best at English.

I would recommend you to listen to Ren a britan artist who also very often make songs about problems around the world my personal fav is Dominos
I still remember that I was so traumatized when I first watched this MV maybe not understanding the true message of the MV at that time, but now I watch this 7 years later, the power that social media has and how people easily became slaves to social media is so true. This MV is well made even the little detail that the bird came to that little girl. This MV alert the danger of social media can happen to anybody with any age.
Same...I watched it when I was in 6th grade. I got the message almost vaguely but not quite. Now that I'm older I understand to the full extent what Stromae expressed in the song
At least I know im not the only one, the end part really got me scared.
Le message est clair et précis
Prenons garde
LMAO LITERALLY
I was in like 3rd grade when this MV came out and they played it for us at assemble and I still get shivers when I hear the line about dying like rats, and the more I think about it it actually did form part of how I think about social media, they just played it cause it was a french school and Stromae was trending at the time but it has resonated through my brain for the past 9 years
you have no idea how right you were 9 years ago ! you have no idea what is yet to come. The complexity of everything that is yet coming to us.
This man is an actual genius and this song is a masterpiece.
Stromae is not popular at all in England, and with songs like this, he really should be. I think this is an amazing song though ♥
Nathen Kiruba Because in England (like in the US) they only listen songs in english, I never heard any music without english lyrics in radio, in UK...
Øyvind Jørgensen yeah, it's definitely a great shame as i personally love to hear songs like this, i don't mind that it is not english, i guess others don't really agree with me
Øyvind Jørgensen there was we no speak americano all those years ago butur right its v v rare:'(
His song Papaoutai was popular here in America. A lot of people know about it but it never played on the radio
Ka Wi yeah, that's my fave song by stromae, but sadly, that was never popular in England either :/
Après 8 ans, cette chanson résume le problème de la société et des écrans.
Stromaé est un génie.

Un jour tu verras, on s’aimera
Mais avant on crèvera tous, comme des rats
Merci pour les paroles
Merci bro
this guy knows something we dont , always a deeper message
Real
This song is genius in so many ways :
- It's called carmen because the main melody is sampled from "L'amour est un oiseau rebelle" from the theatre play "Carmen".
- It revolves around birds not only because of Twitter but also because the original song translates to "Love is a rebel bird".
- The cry of the bird emulates Twitter notifications.
- The hook is "Et c'est comme ça qu'on s'aime, et c'est comme ça consomme". It translates poorly in English but it's a really clever pun.
- The clip is in sync with the beat of the song.
I love Stromae. Sérieux je l'adore, j'ai hâte à son prochain album (oui je commence à parler français en plein milieu)

Super clip, super sujet, super paroles, super reprise, une super musique qui va rester longtemps je pense.
je crois que ce clip est encore plus efficace que les vidéo de prévention du danger des réseaux qu'on nous met a l'école..
Ça c'est sur!
pourquoi "encore"? t'es en train de dire que les vidéos à l'école sont utile?? ceci dit c'est vrai qu'ils devraient passer ça à la place
on nous a passé ça en 4eme à mon école en musique et on a fait toute une séquence dessus
Dans notre collège on travaille cette musique pour la prévention des réseaux sociaux, on a de la chance
Moi sa ma fait tellement flippé, que je veux plus télécharger twitter
Conclusion : cette video est TRES efficace TvT
C'est tellement beau quand on réécoute la chanson des années plus tard et qu'on comprend vraiment la signification de la chanson
tout a fait d'accord
Mais grave avant jmoi jeprenaît trop ça a la rigolade mais il a vrm raison les réseaux ça bouffe nos vies !
In french "consomme" or "consommation" has many meanings, and I understand that he jokes with the meanings during the song and the video.
He is talking about love and in this situation "consommation" means how people relate to each other. He says that love is a son of the relationship, depends on what kind of relationship we have, love is builded by choices day by day. It's like in the offert and demand law - when somebody don't give himself to the relationship the love of the other ends.
But "consomme" can mean also "to use”, so he links social medias and relationships; and can mean also "to buy", so he links the song with the consumption habits; and can mean “to end little by litte” like something being absorbed. It's possible analyzing the song from any of these points...
Stromae's music is like that poem your Literature teacher told you to dissect. A phrase can have a lot of intended meaning based on literal words, societal context, historical context, etc.
"consomme" is even "consume", like consuming things or relationships or people, burning them. And love is still a kind of consume, mostly the love for yourself.
One of the meanings is that Twitter and the socials are creating a mass of self-lovers that consume themselves (I think).
Obviously..
Oh, I thought he was trying to get in a jab at capitalism. I'll cut some slack then. Twitter is a consumer product. Power users don't play with censored platforms and Silly Cunt Valley corporate culture reflects this. They have posters banning the use of the word user. More stitches means less riches, right? Just throw it away and buy a new one instead of fixing it or building things to last in the first place. Disgusting.
Im trying to learn french this year and I love Stromae, thx for explaning that part. Curiosity: in Brazil 'consume' have all thats meanings as well
9 years later, i just understood the message he was trying to share, we did not got it at the time, we did not see the evil hidden in the shape of social media. i can write about this for hours but the animation said everything.
to everyone reading, get back to reality, sleep early wake up early eat healthy reduce your time screen as much as possible, go visit someone you love, don't facetime him, take a piece of paper and write don't use notes, do any kind of sports, eat healthy, work hard , build a family, and keep everything PRIVATE, not everybody will wish good for you...
I was looking for French music to help passive learning and came across Stromae. Out of any artists I've ever heard and seen in any language, Stromae is one of the greatest. So glad I found him.
+chapachuu he is indeed a really good french singer
He's not french. He's belgian
You're half right, his roots are from Belgian. But he is French. So 50/50 :)
+William Jørgensen he was born in Belgium, he studied in Belgium and he lives in Belgium.
Nothing French.
Okay, go look it up then.

***** If you agree with me, don't contradict me. "I don't think it's about" "But I agree that the translation isn't that great"...Like ,shut the fuck up and stop commenting just because you can.
I really like that between 0:50 and 1:15 he is doing these activities alone, including his own birthday. Even though his followers were increasing. I think what the artist was trying to show was that even though your followers are growing and you feel like you have become popular, they are not really your friends.

Crazy how this music video aged like wine compared to reality 😢 he really saw what was becoming of that platform (twitter)
La plate-forme c’est nous et le devenir c’est eux…
He is incredible. Back then twitter didnt have the political power it has now. Stromae was ahead of his time.
edit: R.I.P twitter
It may not have had the political power then, but it still had its social power over the masses.
It's not only about twitter tho...
Social media has always had a hold on people and the more technology advances the more this song rings true
the music is not about political power it is about consumerism, and social media addiction.

Finally a comment different than the English ones
i always loved stromae as one of my favourite french singers and this was the best thing ever. the way he depicted everything and hopefully made people realise that social media destroys you , makes you alone and then kills you. it is not only eye-opening but terrifyingly accurate
He’s belgian but yeah, we claim him as an international personnality 👀
@@Skyfusemog whoops ! i didn't know that 😅 thanks for letting me know !
@@Skyfusemog so he is french
@@kuroyami84 He is francophone, if you would like to express the language he sings in.
Terrifying indeed! No wonders I decided to "ditch" my facebook account...
The song is great but can we also admire the Music Video. It's so creative and I love how there are many hidden meanings scattered in the video that symbolise something. It perfectly depicts how social impact actually impacts our lives slowly.
There are many artists who can make a great song, but Stromae is just unique. He adds so many elements to all his songs. Each time, the ideas he comes up with are just so out of the box. He never fails to amaze me.
I remember watching this almost a decade ago and it gave me chills. Now all these years later, the message is even more relevant. Such a great social commentary.
Animation is soooooo great! Very stylish and fresh. Respect to the animators!
If you like it, the animator made a whole movie a few years ago called "Les Triplettes de Belleville".
I knew it looked similar! I just coudn´t remember the name of the movie, it was a while since I watched it. Thanks for reminding.

yes i do realize that. But the social media im talking bout is where you gain followers with your selfies and just always obssessed with having good angles and lightning for one selfie to get like what?100 likes. Okay cool, like seriously whats the point of all this? I do have a youtube account obviously but where do you see a selfie exactly lol

BeautifulLavaMonster same
It talks about how we will put ourselves out there and do things that end up on the Internet that makes us popular for only a little while. So we find anything else to make us popular which will get us in some drama and ultimately forgotten
If you really pay attention to the video, you can learn a lot. The bird eating his food symbolizes that society forgets to even eat, instead choosing to use social media. The bird on his back shows that Twitter weighs us down. The bird being between the two shows that it drives a wedge between us and our loved ones. The bird picking him up and carrying him on his back shows us that Twitter, or social media, has finally taken complete control over his life, to the point that he cares about literally nothing, even as it drives him into hell. Finally, his love tries to save him by reaching out to him, but she is unable to convince him to give up social media, and is crushed. Likely, she is crushed emotionally, rather than by a giant twitter bird, but the point remains the same. The video tells just as important a story as the song, and even without it, is still a perfectly comprehensible work on its own.

It adds a lot to the general deepness of this song that the melody is just like the melody in "Habanera", an aria from Carmen, which is an opera about being seduced by a lover who ultimately destroys and abandons you.
Holy shit, that's cool. Crazy how true the song's message is and how we get caught up in something so bad for us we don't realise how detrimental it is until it's killed us.
Now I get why it's named and yeah the melody seemed really familiar
I also love how he diverges from the original melody frequently, which gives a feeling of a creation that's been copied, shared, memed, re-memed, and this is just one of its many iterations. If that wasn't intentional, I'd be surprised.
American music - drugs, love.....
French music - life
He is belgian
that's not the point
Jean Poli he said "french music", that means "chanson française", and Stromae sings in French. We all know where he is from.
Exactly. Music here in U.S. Is horrible.
Brayden Vanmilligan Music around the world is horrible, but sometimes art like this comes up
Et dire qu'il y a 6 ans j'écoutais cette chanson en m'embiançant dessus sans la comprendre. En grandissant on se rend compte que c'est non seulement ultra triste, mais une triste réalité.
Très bonne chanson
%100 true
Le clip est aussi très explicite pour le coup. Avec les images un enfant aurait aucun mal à comprendre. Enfin il aurait l’idée générale.
C vrai merci
Oui sais vrai et tu habite où répond moi vite

This aged like fine wine
Now we need the sequel with an evil X letter
Everybody gangsta till the blue bird steps on ya girl.

Depraved Diptera lol
Lit3 Plumber IT IS
I love this song.:( it reminds me when I was in 6th grade learning French and almost 80% of our school picked Spanish. I’m so happy I learned French is one of the most beautiful languages of the world. Lovely songs and lovely memories of being a child

2024 quelqu’un ?
Toujours présent !
moi
Toujours 😊
Ouèche
Oui toujours
Moi, ici présente, l'une des rares personnes qui comprennent vraiment la chanson vu qu'on est français, toujours la en 2021
Y'a la traduction anglaise des paroles juste en dessous du clip...
tu pourrais m'expliquer le métaphore de cette chanson stp? je comprends plus ou moins maus je voudrais qu'on me l'éxplique plus clairement, surtout l'allusion des paroles, normalement je comprends assez façilement les métaphires dans les paroles des chansons mais là c'est un peu plus compliqué pour moi
@@tonynambs3232 en gros la chanson parle de l'effet des réseaux sociaux sur la vie des gens et comme on peut se perdre et s'éloigner des gens qui sont dans nos vies à cause de ça. C est pour ça que Stromae dit "prend garde à toi si tu t'aime, garde à moi si je m'aime" il nous dit de faire attention à se qui peut se passer à cause de nos actions
@@aikonunesdasilva3681 ah d'accord, merci
@@aikonunesdasilva3681 ta explication m'a aidé a faire mes devoirs de français, merci beaucoup, je la compris mieux! :) (j'espère que mon français est bon)
Stromae should be popular here in America, his music isn't trash
Jasmine Chapman I guess that's the reason he's not popular in America lol
Rolo FIIIRREEEE 🔥🔥🔥🔥😂😂😂😂 YOU'RE SAVAGE 😂😂
Ahah Hello Fat Burger's eaters !
Yoann le meur What type-a meth you taking? Lmao
Jasmine Chapman I know, but I feel like because it's in french most Americans would rather ridicule the song then appreciate it.
*The way she smacked him still has me wheezing 5 years later 😂💀😭☠️*

the meaning is don't let social media consume you, the big grumpy bird in the end represents that social media isn't doing anything for you you're just feeding the twitter bird your time, your life and your money
