just the song of sammy that attracted me instantly! after that i just cannot "quit" him~the unique aura he presents in singing is really different from others, such as this one, retrospect and a little bit gloomy, retrospect, while laidback somehow-even i dont know well about the lyrics, can't help being obsessed with him
Paroles: No sleep I haven’t slept for a week And I’m cold Yeah I’m so cold She’s right I should do something with my life But I’m old, I’m old, I’m getting old Those eyes She said they don’t recognize me Those lips They’re never calling my name (chorus) It feels so heavy Feels so heavy, heavy I’m waiting for a Saturday Waiting for a Saturday And I’m too young to be old Une fille, Jolie Passé tout près de moi Elle arrêtait le temps Au coin de Ste-Catherine et St-Laurent (chorus) Elle me regardait Et elle souriait Elle m'a fait penser à rien en ce moment Et comme le vent elle s’en allait Et moi je suis réveillé Oui moi je suis réveillé
@fierybrunette47 No actually he's a native anglophone of Montreal. Like most of them, he speaks french, but english is really his first and main language. I'm from Montreal myself.
I live, I live. She came by me She stopped the time on the corner of st-catherine and st-laurent ......... she looked at me and she was smilling. Its like the wind, she went away and i am awake :)
the video is a bit too dark - although i understand it is taking place very late at night. but i think it really is a very very very good video apart from the brightness. well done.
well i guess you're right bobchillaxd im in that kind of situation at the moment...i know one that can be so bewitching at times. driving me crazy. she just sent me that song.
a girl... pretty... was passing real close to me... she was stopping the time... at the corner of St-Catherine and St-Laurent (in Montreal)... she was looking at me... she was smiling... she makes me think of nothing right now... and like the wind she was leaving... and I am awake, yes I am awake
I always imagined it on a sunny day, a man walking on ste-catherine street, full of people... seems like the french part is forgotten somehow. no offense, the vid is nice :)
this is fantastic! the kinda videos i like making. might have been cooler if there was someone holding the camera to get less still shots and more movement but other than that, good job. make more like this and i just might subscribe! :)
@brettberry23 in some they do, but you're right, they arent all that effective here. I mean, it does create a disconnect in a way, but you want to feel the character's trouble with not sleeping and thats best shown in meds and CUs. (of course only works if you have a really good actor)
@charles4hl His French is flawless though. No hint on an accent in English, and I don't hear an anglo accent when he speaks French (but I'm an anglophone).
une fille , jolie , passait tout près de moi , elle arrêtais le temps au coin de sainte-catherine et saint-laurent (suite)... Elle m'a regardé et elle souriait elle m'a fait penser à elle en ce moment , mais comme un vent peut s'en aller mais moi je suis réveiller , ouais moi je suis réveiller .....
Cool video, lots of really good shots too (angle, lighting, etc.), and I love this song. Only thing negative I'll say is you need some plot/substance in the video, I was getting tired of watching him walk and so did he when he took a nap. Keep up the good work though!
I don't like it. it's just someone walking around with good music. hard to watch... when someone smoking is the most interesting part in the video you know the quality isn't that good.
i rather watch the static on an old tv than this "music video", i get that you are trying to show that hes doing nothing all night. You know what else shows nothing? The static on an old tv.
I did this video with my friend about 10 years ago and now I come back to see 120k views! Thanks for enjoying our high school project!
Bud, I found this 10 years ago. I always used it to show my friends. I hope you're well. Thanks for the years
@@half3613 yo word that's tight
classic piece :-)))
i crushed on the song 3 yrs ago, today it came up to my mind again, and still, touching~

Paroles:
No sleep
I haven’t slept for a week
And I’m cold
Yeah I’m so cold
She’s right
I should do something with my life
But I’m old, I’m old, I’m getting old
Those eyes
She said they don’t recognize me
Those lips
They’re never calling my name
(chorus)
It feels so heavy
Feels so heavy, heavy
I’m waiting for a Saturday
Waiting for a Saturday
And I’m too young to be old
Une fille, Jolie
Passé tout près de moi
Elle arrêtait le temps
Au coin de Ste-Catherine et St-Laurent
(chorus)
Elle me regardait
Et elle souriait
Elle m'a fait penser à rien en ce moment
Et comme le vent elle s’en allait
Et moi je suis réveillé
Oui moi je suis réveillé
11 people do not like this? come ON!
Being sleepless isn't necessarily emotional. I think this is pretty accurate. Lots of thought and need to move when insomnia kicks in!
Sam Roberts is GOD
Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
