      Hey man loving your ''shiiiiiiits'' it's amazing to see somebody my age discovering classics from my childhood. The only regret I sometimes get is when translations sucks...puns and idiomatic expressions are sometimes hard top get without the help of a ''native'' speaker...like no one in France knew what a ''poker face'' was except for a litteral one...if you ever need someone to translate ''in deep'' (contextualising, explaining slang etc...) i would gladly be that guy, just hit me here it could be ''foooooormidable''.

And loving music and poetry from cab callaway or Boris Vian, to slayer and gojira, passing by immortal technique, cymarshall Law or Orel san...it may be some pleasant work to do

    It was an actor's performance: he was only pretending he was drunk, when he just wasn't. Even the cops couldn't see the difference as they didn't know they were being filmed.
    Now Dereck you absolutely need to listen to and watch his next hit single music video: TOUS LES MÊMES, on women being fed up with male chauvinism.

      The video was shot a "busy" day, in a central point in Brussels, but all cameras were hidden and very faw. He cames from the subway and "acts" like if he was drunk. all the other people on the video were not actors but "real people".
      I remember we saw the "raw" video (not edited with the song, lyrics) a lot during few days, ad everybody was shocked : "Stromae was caught drunk", "he is sick", "he cannot assume being famous..."
      A lot of people also post others videos they took on their phone, it was the biggest subject to talk : Stromae's carreer is finished !
      Then, few days later, the video is relaesed, and... WOW !!! Everybody felt stupid and we all had to recognize it was a genius way to promote this wonderfull song !

    We call that a " hold-up ".
    A performance held in public where no one around knows the person I a performer. Here, Stromae wasn't drunk nor tired, he had worked on his acting for months before everything was filmed.
    The media ripped him to shreds the same day, humiliated him, dragged him through the dirt. . . before realizing way later it was all an act and they had been, indeed ,been the ones in the wrong.

    as far as I know, this was filmed on "hidden camera", so the cops and the people didn't know they were filmed and so their reaction is much more precious. This song is also a word game between FORMIDABLE and FORT MINABLE (SO LOUSY). And Dereck, I like your work. You are becomming a specialist in french music :-)

    When he recorded this video it was only with hidden camera, people around are real people not comedians (real cops yes :-) ).
    Immediatly on the social medias there was a buzz, you could see: Stromae drunk in the street !!!
    Some people said:
    that's what happenned to stars: they drink too much...
    or
    Poor Stromae he seems really sad
    And a few days after the video was released and ONLY at this moment they explained what they did. He's not only a fantastic music maker and showman, he's also awesome in communication

    I remember well that when he shot this video, it was first a bad buzz in Belgium. No one knew that it was for a video of his new song. So the news spread quickly in the country that he was not doing good and was drunk on the streets and annoying people in Brussels. Of course, he made it in purpose as it gave huge exposure to his new song "formidable" 😁.

    This took 18 hours to film with hidden cameras all over the square. Cameras on parked bicycles for example. He was nervous even the morning if the shoot because Paul (Stromae) is a very humble guy and even though his first album was a massive hit and he made millions, he drive a very ordinary car and lived in the same house as before. He was seen one night by a fan eating in a really basic car and the so called fan took a video and uploaded it to social media making fun of him. He was pronounced a one hit wonder basically. So to do this was a huge gamble. After this filming the media went crazy insulting him. When he went on a tv show with the video to promote his 2nd album Racine Carrée he again appeared drunk on the show, even though he wasn't, it was just an act, and people were asking why he was allowed to go on tv like that. But then after he finished singing and the video was released they had to take it all back. I adore Stromae. Racine Carrée was perfection. Awaiting his new album now. Santé, his new single came out about two weeks ago. CD coming soon and a tour next summer. Love to see your reaction to the wonderful Stromae.

His texts are like modern philosophical tales. He had an international career, and generated enthusiasm, see worship. He was right to stop performing on stage altogether, because he understood that he was becoming a character. Thank you for this lovely moment with Stromae. Greetings from France

    Hi Dereck! Can I just say you are by far a favorite reactor and I just love the versatility on your channel.
    Formidable is one of my all time top songs. beautiful melancholic and melodic.
    I can confirm Stromae is a genius. I was lucky to see him in concert in the Netherlands before he went under the radar. During the concert he literally took us on an improvising journey on the creation proces of making a song, adding more instrumentation, beats, words and melodic lines on the spot! It was magical.
    One of my other favorites is the song 'Cesaria' in which he pays tribute to Cesaria Evora, a famous Cape Verdean singer - Grammy winner, passed away in 2011/2012 I believe. Thanks Dereck ❣

    Stromae is sometimes compared to Jacques Brel, the most famous Belgian singer of the 1960s. With "L'ivrogne" for example or "Madeleine". Jacques Brel is considered an icon and one of the greatest singer-songwriters of French song, thanks to titles such as "Ne me quitte pas", " Amsterdam ", " La Valse à mille temps ", " Ces gens-là ", " Vesou ", "Mathilde". Brel offers a cruel universe, between drama and humor, with an interpretation of the characters he speaks of in his songs. I recommend watching his concert at the Olympia in 1964.

    Hi Dereck! Thanks for your react on Stromae "Formidable". I think it's the BEST song of his album "Racine Carrée" as a second single May 27,2013.
    The videoclip was shot on hidden camera in Brussels streets, near the Louise tram stop the same month but Stromae really hesitated and even wondered.
    He plays a drunk young man who broke up with his girlfriend.
    This song sold at 309 800 copies (Diamond disc) and became no.1 in France, even in Belgium. End of 2013, on RUclips the music video is viewed over 50 million times.
    Thanks for your great work dude. 👍🇫🇷

    Hi Dereck ! Your channel is really nice! If you wanna try some other french artists you could try Tryo “l’hymne de nos campagnes “ or Louise Attaque “je t’emmène au vent “ these songs are great and lots of their songs are really good! Keep going guy ! You’re make an amazing job !!
    And if you want to react to older French songs I recommend you Serge Lama with “Je suis malade” yes like Lara Fabian but he is the original singer . Or Femme Femme Femme ; Une île or whatever else from him , he is just how to say it in English … marvellous!! By the way, keep going on your way and continue to love french songs! Good things to you !! Take care

    It is cool that you have the lyrics in English sync'ed with the video. You could now feel the exact meaning in real-time with the french speakers.
    BTW did we got Stromae: 3 for 3, or 3 for free ? The former is my preference ofc :)

    9:20 To me, it's the story of a breakup sure, but of a man who can't have children. That's why he was dumped, why he's so drunk, sad and angry against everyone nearby and that's why i find the last sentence, the climax so intense.
    Thx for the video tho :)
    i hope one day i can see you listen to the "Port of Amsterdam" from Jacques Brel (but the version of David Bowie is great too :p)

    Hi Dereck, I love your channel, and I absolutely admire Stromae, a little subjective, being a Belgian. I would recommend "Dodo" or "Sommeil", not his most famous songs, but so textualy good, right spot on, addressing difficult subjects like domestic violence and keeping up appearances. Also "Cancer" is deep song with a haunting clip. I would also recommend watching some live performances of him, like the one in Madison Square Garden in 2015. Greetings from Belgium

    • @Nick-pm4jz
      @Nick-pm4jz 3 года назад +1

      Whoops, I meant "Quand c'est" of course. That's what you get thinking in one language and writing in the other.

      Yes but the Montreal concert was filmed better so I think watching that concert is better to be honest. But watching his entire concert from startg to finish is a must. He is wonderful with his audience and he incorporates one of his Leçons (the original concept of it) in his stage performance of Tous Les Mêmes. It's amazing. Enjoy! The Montreal concert now has subtitles in English too. Free on RUclips!

      Quad C'est is s a work of pure genius. It really is. I be a look so lived his staging and choreography of Carmen, his dress for that piece and the use of the mic like a cane. Appreciate the special effects behind him while he's dancing the same moves. Extraordinary! I was so I'll then, otherwise I would have definitely gone to see him at Madison Square Garden. I needed surgery at the time. I am so sad I missed that concert. I want to see Stromae in concert once before I die.

    The press has been horrible with him until he released the video because it was secret until the last day. They were spreading the news that he was over, that fame broke him etc, the hate train felt stupid when he revealed the truth. That was a good lesson for them.

    Hi !! Here are some other french songs you can react to :
    - Saez - "jeune et con"
    - Notre Dame de Paris (a musical) - "Belle"
    - Jean-Jacques Goldman (again !) - "Né en 17" , "Ensemble" , "Là-bas" , "Juste après "
    - Francis Cabrel - "Je l'aime à mourir" , "La corrida"
    All are different from eachother. I am pretty sure you will lost your bananas !

    Il joue un rôle pour le clip mais le clip a était tourné en caméra caché. Et quand il a sorti le clip il a fait fuiter la vidéo sans la musique. Et tout le monde y compris les journaux sont tombé dans le panneau tout le monde a réellement crû que "Stomae" était en dépression.😉 il et trop fort!!!
