Gowdsta. Glad to see other people feeling this way! I've seen way too many comments saying that they didn't like the video or how it was filmed. Oh well
Do you all notice the change of perspective from old (sitting at the table, cannot handle the camera) to a young baby (on the arm) with many steps of ages in between? This is cinematic genius
***** its because the person holding the camera represents cycle of life from an old man look at a woman's butt to an adult father asking his son where his father is to a young adult partying and drinking to a young girl and in the end you find the they were actually celebrating a new born baby
***** I know exactly what you mean it gave me the same feeling. Seeing all those people happy was so genuine made me tear up and I don't even know why.
Stromae is who Kanye thinks he is. A true artist that invokes every emotion and has true talent. I don't need to understand French to know good music, this is not good it's pure excellence.Greetings from Brooklyn NY.
That's what up Amanda! I used to work out on the island (Bloomingdales Roosevelt field) long ass commute from Brooklyn on LIRR. Had enough of it and moved to Rotterdam, Holland.
lmao I work at bloomies nowww ahahahahahah. but yes I agree, stromae has great talent. I want him to come out with an album already. I love this song so much (as the others) but I think the reason why I love it is because it has a familiar nostalgic tone to it. so glad you enjoy as well though!!!
Stromae is an exceptional artist but what does Kanye have to do with this? You have to discredit his name in order to praise Stromae? As much as an asshole Kanye is personally, as an producer and rapper he has made multiple works of art. His album MBDTF remain one of the highest rated album of all time. For a lot of people out there, including me, his music invokes emotion. He is talented. Perhaps Kanye is just not your cup of tea. Is it not possible to enjoy both artists?
To all: this is a tribute to Cesaria Evora, a VERY talented Capo Verde singer, who was only recognized/ discovered when she was about 47 years of age. "Sodad", her perhaps most famous single is referred to in this song, as well as the fact that she often performed barefooted (read the captions closely).
saratavares20 My dear arrogant ass, the spelling of the geographical location in question varies depending on the language, e.g., Portuguese vs. English. Grow up, get some education, and thank me later. BTW, the word "later" does not require a capital "L". You're welcome.
Les paroles sont de : Paroliers : Aurelien Cotentin / Chahrazede Aissahine / Jose Mauricio / Mauricio Del Gado / Paul Van Haver Il faut rendre à César ce qui appartient à César. 🤣 Je ne retire rien au fait que Stromae a une voix en or et une personnalité unique ! 👌
This is the most beautiful videoclip that I've ever seen in my whole life, it has so much love, so much kindness, so much time and history, our lives are a sigh in this universe, but this video shows why that sigh can be so sublime and beautiful. It´s just perfect how it is. My eyes fill with tears every time I see it.
Then you should definitely see the fan made clip for Taro from Alt-j. The song is a poem about Gerda Taro and Robert Capa, it's beautiful, first time I cried watching a clip. ruclips.net/video/S3fTw_D3l10/видео.html&ab_channel=DavidDeanBurkhart
J'avais jamais vu ce clip même si j'avais déjà entendu la chanson. J'ai eu envie de pleurer, la mise en scène est tellement...pure, je pense qu'au delà de la musique elle même, voir ce clip nous rend tous nostalgique, des fêtes de familles, des fêtes d'enfance, de notre vie. Une telle transmission par l'image m'impressionne.
The handing down of the camera through the ages, from an old man who doesn't know how to work the camera, to that of a young child in their mothers arms is really nice symbolisation as to how family works. Little traits and things that were once intristically one person spread throughout the years, quirks, talents, interests and things that these people love, in this instance dance is passed down through the generations and although they're all looking at the same thing it's all from entirely different perspectives and honestly it's amazing to see
Now according to this, this video is very much planned and all but one will think that its just another casual song video with some folks singing dancing and enjoying through!
It's beautiful the message of the video: The cycle of life from the perspective of the one who's filming every part. From old age, to youth, to childhood.
This song makes me feel nostalgic for a culture that was never mine Cette chanson me fait sentir de la nostalgie pour une culture qui n'était jamais la mienne
Anemoia is the a feeling of nostalgia for a time that never was, a place we never came to, a world we'll never be with. Still, I enjoy every second where I feel it, and I hope you can too.
Cesaria Evora was an absolute legend!!Is this Evora's real family? If not Stromae did an excellent job in capturing Capo Verde culture. He made this video look authentically Cabo Verdean, the multiracial families, the Portuguese interior architecture, the West African flavour. It's so nostalgic!!!!
I think the video was shot in Ghent and the people seem to me like multiracial Belgian or French families. Stromae himself is half-Belgian, half-Rwandese :)
ce mec est tellemetn poetique dans son boulot, depuis MJ je n'est jamais vu une telle perfection! racine carré un album qi restera dans l'Histoire de la musique, de a poésie et de l'art en général
Watching this physically hurts me. I listen to this and I dance alone in my room, singing along and clapping. I wish I had a family like this. I want to see children run down the halls. Aunts and uncles, grandfathers and grandmothers. It hurts knowing the moment the song is over I am alone again. I hope to start a strong family someday.
I understand that man, just find someone who loves you for you. Marry them (if you want) and have children, start that family you didn't have. Be that for your children, love them like you wish your family was like. Have them be the same for their children, etc. Then you'll see the great family that's close together that you helped make with your S/O yourself. :)
You always want what you don't have and it always seems better than it actually is. Remember that. Have aspirations sure but don't ever feel sad for not having what you don't fully know.
Stromae perfectly captured the multicultural family, as somebody who comes from one. Our functions went a lot like this; I was one of those children who used to run through my family's home during parties, barefoot and wild haired in my prettiest pink dress that my mother saved for the occasion. I later became one of those awkward teenagers who wanted to pretend that they were "above" everybody else at that party and sat around the table only to be eventually pulled in for a dance by my mother. Now I'm a 21 year old, about to be 22, taking care of the kids sometimes and helping in the kitchen when I can and dancing however I like, because I know at these events we're at our safest. Our house is an amalgamation of sounds, colors, languages, and cultures, and this video perfectly captures that same household. Thank you, Stromae, for bringing out lives to the screen. You're an artist who will be remembered!
This is too relatable, especially the running around with my hair a mess and with my prettiest dress mom put on me… eventually she gave up and stopped making me wear dresses
I have to say, I love the fact that Stromae makes himself more of an extra in some of his videos - this one, Ta Fete, and others - instead of the star. You hear his voice and see him slightly throughout but the focus is on the atmosphere. Music is not always about the artist, it's sometimes about the people listening to it. Ok, is it weird to say he's a genius?
le clip me serre et le coeur et me ramène des larmes dans les yeux. je sais pas si c'est un truc de familles de couleur, plus spécialement des îles, de n'importe quel coin de la terre; de louer un château, le chaos, les gens qui dansent, les grand parents ivres morts, les enfants qui courent partout jusque dans les cuisines, tout ce fatras d'enfance qui ne me reviendra plus jamais. mais que j'ai revu un petit instant avec cette chanson. chapeau.
J'ai ressenti exactement la même chose... Sûrement la musique assez triste mais dansante, toute cette famille réunie, les générations se mélangeant, les enfants qui courent, la musique, la fête... Et toujours ce même pincement au coeur à chaque fois que je regarde le clip (je suis moitié française, moitié sudaméricaine et j'arrive presque à voir ma famille dans la vidéo)
I miss this man so much. I do not need to understand french to be influenced by his magic. Music is a language of its own and this man has mastered the language. No debate that Stromae is the greatest artist of the last couple of decades, from beat making to singing to video producing to performing, this man can do it all. One final album pleaase.
I HEARD THAT HE'S WORKING WITH DUA LIPA AND BILLIE EILISH, AND HE'S GOING TO BE RELEASING SONGS THIS YEAR but don't get your hopes too high.. although its hard not too :/
Je me souviens de cette chanson, je l'ai découvert il y a deux ans au Brésil 🇧🇷, à cette époque là je ne comprenais un mot de français et aujourd'hui cela me fait chaud au cœur d'y pouvoir tout comprendre en France🇫🇷. Viva Cesária Évora, Viva Stromae 🎵
For the people in the comments saying they feel sad after they watched the video, it is probably because you remember a time when you were apart of the video and now it is no longer like that. Or it could be that you envy it because you never had anything like that to begin with. I hope you all have something like this in the future ❣️
C'est le meilleur clip de musique que j'ai jamais vu! Cet air naturel donne vraiment l'impression qu'on fait tous parti d'une famille. C'est tellement chaleureux.
much wow yeah you're right, it is so unfortunate. I think if they actually gave it a chance, everyone would like it. It is not as catchy as Papaoutai or Tous les mêmes but listen to this vibe, makes me want to move my feet ...
+Paulo Zhan This also is 'cause not everyone understands what the song is about, and know Cesaria Evora. So the lyrics doesn't impact the mind of the listeners. I love Cesaria Evora and knew her songs for a long time, and the lyrics of this song touched me instantly ! That's why I completely agree with you =) !
As a Capeverdean its cool to see that people from around the world loves and apreciates Cesaria too, and the video looks like a normal capeverdean family reunion
As someone from the PALOP (Communitie of Countries that speak Portuguese Language), I appreciate even more this song, and it is really touching that this women reached every single corner of the world, and not only Cape Verd, Portugal, Angola... Somewhere in the video I hear "Obrigado" that means Thank you in portuguese... and thats really nice! Congrats Stromae!
Stromae tu nous manques, ta musique parle à tous avec ce qui fait l'essentiel de la vie, nous attendons donc un album et une tournée mondiale afin de rendre l'humanité meilleure, tu peux changer des vies avec ta musique tu es ESSENTIEL :D , ah oui et une denrée rare donc vraiment reviens nous vite
So I have just realized that the filming from 3:21 was done by that adorable little girl. At 3:57 the tall dude comes in and hoists the little girl to his shoulders so that she can film higher. And then at 4:09 that other guy takes over the camerawork. At 4:12 is a shot of how tall dude and little girl who has just handed over the camera look like. It's all really really good.
I didn't like all that I saw in Cuba, but the best things were the multiracial people with amazing skin colors and the music everywhere. Even though Stromae's not referring to the same culture, this video makes me think of it :)
The song is excellent, to me is one of most richest musically. Speak frech would be great but, speak the native language is no necessary to appreciate good music!
Fun Fact: Stormae(Paul Van Haver) is occasionally speaking Portuguese, the official language of Cape Verde (where this is being recorded) and where Césaria Évora was born (Note she was born Portuguese but Cape Verde (former Portuguese colony) became independent in 1975 after the Portuguese carnation revolution in 74'). This song can be interpreted as an Ode to Césaria Évora probably the greatest artist of Cape Verde.
This was recorded in "de vooruit" in Ghent. Witch was a socialist movement house building of handlabor displaying their crafts. A cultural house for the common workmen..
The song is sung in French to the Capo Verdean family members of Cesaria Evora who speak Portuguese, so touching and moving. Song and music 🎶 has no boundaries and it's understood by everyone no matter the language.
This song makes me nostalgic for some reason, remembering my childhood, birthday parties in Haiti where I grew up with my little cousins and friends. Now we're split apart, dealing with adulthood by ourselves, and having no idea how to manage.
Well, for the english speakers, the lyrics written here do not justice at all at the "real" lyrics. There are so much powerful, melancholic, in love, and beautiful..
This version always sounded so much better than on spotify😂. Man i love stromae. I know its only been a year or so since his last album dropped, but i cant wait another 5-8 years till a new album😭
viva cesaria ,,,viva cabo verde ,,,viva africa ,,,viva america latina ,,,,,viva el amor por todo el mondo vive l'amour forever ,,,,merci milles fois stromae ,,, on vous aime
Lyrics !!! Evora, Evora Evora, Evora Evora, Evora Evora, Evora [Couplet 1] Les effluves de rhum dans ta voix, me font tourner la tête Tu me fais danser du bout des doigts, comme tes cigarettes Immobile, comme à ton habitude, mais es-tu devenue muette ? Ou est-ce à cause des kilomètres, que tu ne me réponds plus... [Refrain] Evora, Evora, tu ne m'aimes plus ou quoi ? Evora, Evora, après tant d'années Evora, Evora, une de perdue, c'est ça ? Evora, Evora, je te retrouverai, c'est sûr... [Couplet 2] Souviens-toi de la première fois, où nos regards s'étaient croisés Même que ton oeil disait merde à l'autre, surtout à moi Mais pourquoi moi, alors que les autres te trouvaient bien trop laide Peut-être que moi je suis trop bête, mais je sais t'écouter [Refrain] Evora, Evora, tu ne m'aimes plus ou quoi ? Evora, Evora, après tant d'années Evora, Evora, une de perdue, c'est ça ? Evora, Evora, je te retrouverai, c'est sûr... [Couplet 3] Ave Cesaria, chapeau pour la route à pieds Nue est, et nue était, Diva aux pieds nus, restera Et à vie Cesaria, et à la mort aussi Obrigado, tu embrigadas des millions de soldats dans ta patrie Donc garde à vous Cesaria, tu nous as tous quand même bien eus Ah tout le monde te croyait disparue, mais tu es revenue Sacrée Cesaria, quelle belle leçon d'humilité Malgré toutes ces bouteilles de rhum, tous les chemins mènent à la dignité [Refrain] Evora, Evora, tu ne m'aimes plus ou quoi ? Evora, Evora, après tant d'années Evora, Evora, une de perdue, c'est ça ? Evora, Evora, je te retrouverai, c'est sûr... [Chants] Oh, saudade de minha Cesária
The video concept is about the cycle of life. If you notice the camera man keeps on changing from different periods of a human age, first he is old sitting not knowing how to turn on a camera, telling his wife to move out of the way looking at another woman's fat ass, then he is a married man asking his son where is his mother/wife is, then in the bathroom they switch to a young adult, smoking, partying, and everything else, then it is the young girl's time, she notices mostly children dancing and you can tell from the point of view, after that it is a new born, that the family is celebrating. At the end the old man takes the camera and reveals the new baby being held by the father, and the cycle repeats itself on a faster note after that to end in circles.
for who's wondering the meaning of "oh sodade, sadadi di nha cesaria", it's "oh longing, longing for my Cesaria". "saudade" in portuguese is a name for the specific feeling of missing a loved one. As she was from Cape Verde, she spoke a dialect that mixed portuguese with the one from her african ancestors. Peace from Brazil!
Obrigado - let's say it even better: She was Cabo Verdean and spoke Kriol - and Sodad is a Kriol word too. The islands were under colonial Portuguese rule still when she grew up, we're all still forced to speak Portuguese as official language, but all her music is in Kriol ;) Thank you for sharing this, and let's continue to share her name, music and Cabo Verdean culture, Lusophone and Atlantic connections!
For the people in the comments saying they feel sad after they watched the video, it is probably because you remember a time when you were apart of the video and now it is no longer like that. Or it could be that you envy it because you never had anything like that to begin with. I hope you all have something like this in the future ❣️
Ezekiel’s Brother- yeah. Even though I grew up in a typical middle class American family, there were movies and videos such as this that gave me a sort of happiness. One movie that did that was “Because of Winn-Dixie”, and I feel so nostalgic just thinking about all these instances
Actually it's true, I left my hometown in the pursuit of the so called "better life" (which was basically 7 years of verbal, physical and sexual abuse and the beginning of the downhill of my already damaged mental health but meh) now I don't have any memories with my family and the fewer I can remember are slowly erasing themselves off of my memory. So yeah, these types of videos make me feel kinda nostalgic.
For those who don't know, this is a tribute to Cesária Évora, a singer of "morna" ( a cape verdean music genre, wich is considered the national music of Cape Verde ). Cesária Évora passed away in 2011. "Sodade" or "Saudade" in portuguese means "missing a thing", is a deep emotional state for an absence of someone/something that One person loves. Hope, for those who didn't know, I have helped them figuring out a bit of the meaning of this Song. Cabo Verde! Portugal^^ Obrigado Stromae!!
Yes indeed, best known for morna music - which UNESCO also recognized as official cultural heritage. But we also play coladera and Cabo Verde has many different rhythms like funana too. Thank you for sharing this info with the people. Please continue to share and enjoy all the musics of our islands!
+Steffen Nielsen in this clip we see a typical cape verdean family party. All messy and funny, extended family, lots and lots of food and alcohol. Stromae pays tribute to Cesaria Evora and Cape Verde culture
Je pleure encore et encore a chaque fois que j'entends cette chanson!!! C'est inexplicable, elle vous prends juste aux tripes, au corps, et on ne s'en lasse pas...!!! Encore bravo pour ce bel hommage!!!
This reminds me so much back in 2007 when I was seven years old, living in my grandparent's house, and in december, the whole family get reunited, cousins, uncles, aunties, mothers, fathers, brothers, everyone celebrating the last month of the year with music and a lot of food, my little doggie Lupe running all around the house because she loved people so much, the fireworks on the sky and the neighbours waving their hands from across the streets as a way of salute but also as a goodbye to the year that it's ending, everything about this video makes me feel like a kid again in my far away country, my city, my people.
The most beautiful celebration of a person who found the divine life, I'm sure Cesaria Evora is so proud and happy to know she was so loved by all of us. Merci, Obrigado, Thank you. CESARIA!
Me encanta este video donde puedo ver a tantas personas celebrando en familia. Siento gran nostalgia porque me recuerda a mi niñez y a las fiestas que mi familia organiza en una gran casa. Sin duda, una bonita entrega de un momento fantástico. A diferencia de todos los otros artistas que siempre protagonizan todas sus canciones. Cesaria Evora fue una grna cantante de Cabo verde en Portugal. Esta canción parece ser un homenaje a la "diva de pies desnudos". Saludos desde Perú :)
Being young you take these family gathering for granted, those celebrations like they will last forever. Growing up you realise that they're now part of wonderful memories fueling nostalgia and precious joy of knowing how it feels to be loved and part of a family.
*__* J'adore... Déjà que la chanson en elle même je l'adorais, là... c'est plus que de l'amour que j'ai pour ce clip!!! Vraiment c'est extraordinaire !! je, je n'ai pas de mots pour décrire... Je ne sais pas si c'est ce que je préfère le plus dans le clip mais.. Que Stromae mette plus en avant la famille, les danseurs ect. j'adore... Souvent dans les clips de chanteurs célèbres, c'est le chanteur que l'on vois le plus, alors qu'ici, c'est complètement l'inverse... ça rend le clip encore plus surprenant et unique... Bref, ce clip est renversant... ♥
Les fêtes dans les famille du sud c'est comme ça, les générations mélangées, c'est bondé, les enfants qui courent partout et surtout de la chaleur humaine. On peut le prendre comme une ode à la famille, mais il prend aussi le risque de ne pas plaire à tout le monde pour indiquer que finalement ce qui compte vraiment, c'est la chanson en elle même et non sa mise en image. Même si ça n'a pas l'air, techniquement c'est très bien foutu et le petit clin d'oeil final à nos vieilles K7 VHS des années 80-90 réenregistrées de nombreuses fois est vraiment sympa
Olivier Michel c'est un jeu de mots avec l'expression "tous les chemins mènent à Rome". Là, c'est pour exprimer que malgré son alcholisme (je pense) elle a tout de même réussi à retrouver sa dignité car toutes les vies finissent en dignité.
@@miurtouissi1093 Il faut connaître la vie de Césaria Evora. Elle pouvait chanter dans des barres pour un salaire de misère. Quelques kg de pdt, légumes ou fruits et surtout quelques verres d'alcool. Plus une vie privée difficile. J'ai eu la chance de la voir sur scène. Un merveilleux souvenir...
This song represents so much to me. I see my whole family in this situation with much ease. This brings me joy and sadness for some of my family members aren't here anymore to celebrate with the new ones. Thank you for such a rollercoaster Stromae, from the bottom of my heart.
Casi 6 minutos del plano secuencia más hermoso! Nos introdujo en esa atmósfera de las fiestas familiares de antaño, con todos, tíos abuelos , niños, y además homenajeando a Cesárea Évora… es imposible no admirar a este artista. Bravo Stromae 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
2:57 - 3:07 appreciating Stromae is great and all but can we also take a second to appreciate how smooth these dudes were? i replay this part multiple times whenever i see it haha i love how smooth that part was
the first Stromae song I heard, I just love the way he combines all those elements of the cavaquinho and accordion to create such a languid sound, it's beautiful. Just like the video, it seems chaotic but it's the simplicity of how music can make people want to dance and express their emotions. Not to mention the storytelling in the song, almost an afterthought after all those other elements but just like the rest of Stromae's music, the message and underlying meaning are always fascinating
Chaque fois que je regarde ce clip, la nostalgie me prend et j'ai limite les larmes aux yeux. Il me fait énormément penser aux fêtes de familles passées en Guadeloupe, avec les cousins, la famille... et filmé de la même manière avec les caméscopes de l'époque 😊
My favorite thing here is at 1:53 when the guy asked "where is your mom?" and the kid answered "dunno" and continued running without giving a shit abt where his mom is :')
@@joaobeloferreira9823 its actually the music genre that Cesaria is known for Its a distint style from her island Sao Vicente in Cape Verde named coladera
This album is one of those few album I love Entirely there's NOT a single song that I don't love, is pure perfection. And this song is a perfect example of it
I’ve watched this video a million times and it gets better every time. The celebration of family, the abundance of beauty. Just mmm mmm good. Merci beaucoup pour cette ouevre
Stromae!! Es increíble! ! Lo descubrí hace poco y no puedo dejar de escucharlo! Ojalá pueda disfrutar de uno de sus recitales alguna vez ♡ Saludos desde Argentina!
Attending his concert in Minneapolis last night. By far the best concert experience I have ever had! Better than Beyoncé, Jay z and all the other artists I've seen. He picked a small intimate venue which made it even better. Highly suggest getting tickets to any show NOW
Bria Felix It was life changing! He sounded better live than on his tracks which is mind blowing. Also his live band is extremely talented, the lights engineer made the show incredible as well. I think ppl are posting video check them out.
Escoriza Loic Not saying everyone feels this way, its a personal preference. I prefer actually seeing the artists up close and personal over looking at a huge screen with everyone screaming so loud you cant hear anything
I have just read the meaning of the lyrics. The references on each line. I can only say one thing: Stromae, you are the definition of an artist. A fucking genius in my opinion. I know you don't like this characterizations but i can't help it. Especially with all that shit that we are ''bombed'' in the mainstream music scene! Kudos, my friend!!!
Мне кажется у представителей всех стран мира посмотревших этот клип, в душе стало тепло и радостно, каждый вспомнил себя на месте этих людей рядом со своей семьёй, друзьями и близкими... Супер просто. ААААУУУУУ Россия!!!! КТО ЗДЕСЬ СО МНОЙ????
Удивительно!услышав песню Стромае Sante,я вспомнила обожаемую Цезарию.Я слышала ее мотивы у Стромае.И сечас я вижу в первый раз этот его клип,посвященый Цезарии.Вечная память ей с ее чудесными песнями и всего наилучшего Стромае❤❤❤
On ne se lasse pas de regarder cette vidéo et d'écouter cette chanson. On est comme ensorcelés. Bravo Stromae, tu es le plus grand de tous. Merci pour toutes ces émotions.
Stromae know how to make feel good music.... Geez am totally mesmerized by all his work. Just a work of art and I did not need a translator to feel these emotions. Just BEAUTIFUL
É um tributo de um belga a uma cantora cabo verdiana. Nota se um pc do luso tropicalismo. A cultura brasileira é muito rica por causa dessas misturas todas.
Stromae: on aime ou on n'aime pas. Eh bien, moi j'aime bien. Un petit souffle du Cap Vert. Danse et joie de vivre, avec un brin de nostalgie. Hommage à une grande dame.
Merci de faire voyager et de faire connaître des sons différents et magnifique à des gens qui ne connaissent pas ce genre de son inconnu par la plupart des gens.... merci de faire vivre l'esprit de la musique 🥰🥰
This song is to beautiful, Hope someday i’ll have a big family like them. God bless you Stromae! Loves from my family from Asia. If anyone is reading this, i hope we are healthy and safe. May God bless you always my friend.
I absolutely adore the way this was filmed.
Same here. It's beautiful really.
Gowdsta. Glad to see other people feeling this way!
I've seen way too many comments saying that they didn't like the video or how it was filmed.
Oh well
Gowd me too
Do you all notice the change of perspective from old (sitting at the table, cannot handle the camera) to a young baby (on the arm) with many steps of ages in between? This is cinematic genius

The best song of Stromae
All of his songs are and it makes me so sad
@@millahuhtala1921 Same, he has so much talent but he gets way to little attention
ruclips.net/video/TMuIwJv4NSM/видео.html there is some ,)
This video gives me a weird sense of nostalgia.
Probably because it says "sodad" so many times. And because it's a praise to a singer who is gone.
VeraDonna The party itself and specially the font used for the subtitles remind me of my family party videos from when I was a kid.
***** its because the person holding the camera represents cycle of life from an old man look at a woman's butt to an adult father asking his son where his father is to a young adult partying and drinking to a young girl and in the end you find the they were actually celebrating a new born baby
***** I know exactly what you mean it gave me the same feeling. Seeing all those people happy was so genuine made me tear up and I don't even know why.
At the end i actually cried i dont know why
This guy doesn’t have like a single bad song. And his videos are absolutely genius.
I agree ! + his songs are so deep and amazing, this guy is a masterpiece
Facts 👍🏿

Small ass world! I was asst LPM until 09.

As much as an asshole Kanye is personally, as an producer and rapper he has made multiple works of art. His album MBDTF remain one of the highest rated album of all time. For a lot of people out there, including me, his music invokes emotion. He is talented. Perhaps Kanye is just not your cup of tea.
Is it not possible to enjoy both artists?
stromae is truly gifted.
he works hard as fuck too
dat is the reason why!

To all: this is a tribute to Cesaria Evora, a VERY talented Capo Verde singer, who was only recognized/ discovered when she was about 47 years of age. "Sodad", her perhaps most famous single is referred to in this song, as well as the fact that she often performed barefooted (read the captions closely).
Thank you !!
Jenee Elise No problemo :)) My pleasure! :))) Hope you've had a chance to listen to some songs by Cesaria! Peace! :)
HelenaVanCity CABO VERDE !!! NOT capo verde... Thank me Later...
CESARIA EVORA ( A DIVA DOS PÉS DESCALÇOS )
saratavares20 My dear arrogant ass, the spelling of the geographical location in question varies depending on the language, e.g., Portuguese vs. English. Grow up, get some education, and thank me later. BTW, the word "later" does not require a capital "L". You're welcome.
HelenaVanCity Cape Verde and not "capo" ;)
Le meilleur titre de Stromae. Tout est parfait, le choix du lexique, l'ode à Cesaria Evora...tout simplement magistral !
Les paroles sont de :
Paroliers : Aurelien Cotentin / Chahrazede Aissahine / Jose Mauricio / Mauricio Del Gado / Paul Van Haver
Il faut rendre à César ce qui appartient à César. 🤣
Je ne retire rien au fait que Stromae a une voix en or et une personnalité unique ! 👌
Le clip est terriblement bien fait
This is the most beautiful videoclip that I've ever seen in my whole life, it has so much love, so much kindness, so much time and history, our lives are a sigh in this universe, but this video shows why that sigh can be so sublime and beautiful. It´s just perfect how it is. My eyes fill with tears every time I see it.
Such a beautiful comment! Agree completely 💗
Yeah
Then you should definitely see the fan made clip for Taro from Alt-j. The song is a poem about Gerda Taro and Robert Capa, it's beautiful, first time I cried watching a clip. ruclips.net/video/S3fTw_D3l10/видео.html&ab_channel=DavidDeanBurkhart
Magnifique commentaire, je suis bien d'accord et cela raisonne fort pour moi 🙏💞💝☮️✨
I feel like he gathered all his family members and few friends
J'avais jamais vu ce clip même si j'avais déjà entendu la chanson. J'ai eu envie de pleurer, la mise en scène est tellement...pure, je pense qu'au delà de la musique elle même, voir ce clip nous rend tous nostalgique, des fêtes de familles, des fêtes d'enfance, de notre vie. Une telle transmission par l'image m'impressionne.
☺😊😊😊😍
Je ne l'aurais pas mieux exprimé, merci Nivalem. En fait, Stromae a réussi à tous nous rassembler, dans un clip juste simple (d'apparence).
juste pour info cesaria evora est une chanteuse cap-verdienne qui est morte en 2013 donc tout le pays du cap-vert a fait un d'œuil
Ah, bon à savoir :)

The handing down of the camera through the ages, from an old man who doesn't know how to work the camera, to that of a young child in their mothers arms is really nice symbolisation as to how family works. Little traits and things that were once intristically one person spread throughout the years, quirks, talents, interests and things that these people love, in this instance dance is passed down through the generations and although they're all looking at the same thing it's all from entirely different perspectives and honestly it's amazing to see
Wow, 1 year later and im still here lmao
Yes yes definetly
🥰
Wonderful observation.
Now according to this, this video is very much planned and all but one will think that its just another casual song video with some folks singing dancing and enjoying through!
I miss Stromae so much, no other artist is able to convey emotions in his songs and video as he does.
facts.
yupp
Factss
Does anyone know where he is right now ?? The world needs him lol he is like the avatar
Don’t often comment on youtube videos but can’t help with this one. But i have good newd as I’ve seen he’s releasing an album this Autumn
It's beautiful the message of the video: The cycle of life from the perspective of the one who's filming every part. From old age, to youth, to childhood.
This song makes me feel nostalgic for a culture that was never mine
Cette chanson me fait sentir de la nostalgie pour une culture qui n'était jamais la mienne
same
Qui n’a jamais été mienne*
moi aussi
oh like the same only from Armenia)
Anemoia is the a feeling of nostalgia for a time that never was, a place we never came to, a world we'll never be with. Still, I enjoy every second where I feel it, and I hope you can too.
Cesaria Evora was an absolute legend!!Is this Evora's real family? If not Stromae did an excellent job in capturing Capo Verde culture. He made this video look authentically Cabo Verdean, the multiracial families, the Portuguese interior architecture, the West African flavour. It's so nostalgic!!!!
Just like 🇧🇷
JoStylin what do you mean? I didn't think there's a story behind this song... can you pls explain? this song is the best French song for me so far.
@@yonasberhane6257 Cesária Évora was a cape verdean singer and Stromae is paying a tributeto her.
This is not cesaria’s family but stromae tried to mimic their culture (you can see him sing on the scene)
I think the video was shot in Ghent and the people seem to me like multiracial Belgian or French families. Stromae himself is half-Belgian, half-Rwandese :)
ce mec est tellemetn poetique dans son boulot, depuis MJ je n'est jamais vu une telle perfection! racine carré un album qi restera dans l'Histoire de la musique, de a poésie et de l'art en général
Watching this physically hurts me. I listen to this and I dance alone in my room, singing along and clapping. I wish I had a family like this. I want to see children run down the halls. Aunts and uncles, grandfathers and grandmothers. It hurts knowing the moment the song is over I am alone again. I hope to start a strong family someday.
Who are you?
I understand that man, just find someone who loves you for you. Marry them (if you want) and have children, start that family you didn't have. Be that for your children, love them like you wish your family was like. Have them be the same for their children, etc. Then you'll see the great family that's close together that you helped make with your S/O yourself. :)
U made me cry because this is how I feel inside
It's not impossible, sometimes u can find joy with people u don't know and having a good time just like the video
You always want what you don't have and it always seems better than it actually is. Remember that. Have aspirations sure but don't ever feel sad for not having what you don't fully know.
En regardant cette vidéo, on a l'impression d'être un membre de cette famille qui célèbre... quoi? la VIE! Obrigado

Stromae perfectly captured the multicultural family, as somebody who comes from one. Our functions went a lot like this; I was one of those children who used to run through my family's home during parties, barefoot and wild haired in my prettiest pink dress that my mother saved for the occasion. I later became one of those awkward teenagers who wanted to pretend that they were "above" everybody else at that party and sat around the table only to be eventually pulled in for a dance by my mother. Now I'm a 21 year old, about to be 22, taking care of the kids sometimes and helping in the kitchen when I can and dancing however I like, because I know at these events we're at our safest. Our house is an amalgamation of sounds, colors, languages, and cultures, and this video perfectly captures that same household. Thank you, Stromae, for bringing out lives to the screen. You're an artist who will be remembered!
This is too relatable, especially the running around with my hair a mess and with my prettiest dress mom put on me… eventually she gave up and stopped making me wear dresses
I loved reading that. Thanks for making my day ❤️
You must have a beautiful family..🥰
I have to say, I love the fact that Stromae makes himself more of an extra in some of his videos - this one, Ta Fete, and others - instead of the star. You hear his voice and see him slightly throughout but the focus is on the atmosphere. Music is not always about the artist, it's sometimes about the people listening to it. Ok, is it weird to say he's a genius?
No trust me Stromae is a freakin' genius
Yeah I think you're right. I like that he's confident enough to let others take the spotlight a bit. Great showmanship.
Spot on! He is a genius for sure
he is a g indeed
le clip me serre et le coeur et me ramène des larmes dans les yeux. je sais pas si c'est un truc de familles de couleur, plus spécialement des îles, de n'importe quel coin de la terre; de louer un château, le chaos, les gens qui dansent, les grand parents ivres morts, les enfants qui courent partout jusque dans les cuisines, tout ce fatras d'enfance qui ne me reviendra plus jamais. mais que j'ai revu un petit instant avec cette chanson. chapeau.
+Paru Kishibi :')
Je suis émotif en ce moment, surtout en lisant ton commentaire..
+Fractal-cat Je vous rassure c'est pareil chez nous les pauvres sans-couleur.
Kirochi Haha je suis blanc également sooo..
Sooo quoi ?
J'ai ressenti exactement la même chose... Sûrement la musique assez triste mais dansante, toute cette famille réunie, les générations se mélangeant, les enfants qui courent, la musique, la fête... Et toujours ce même pincement au coeur à chaque fois que je regarde le clip
(je suis moitié française, moitié sudaméricaine et j'arrive presque à voir ma famille dans la vidéo)
I miss this man so much. I do not need to understand french to be influenced by his magic. Music is a language of its own and this man has mastered the language. No debate that Stromae is the greatest artist of the last couple of decades, from beat making to singing to video producing to performing, this man can do it all. One final album pleaase.
Agree! I discovered him like a year ago and he is undoubtedly one of the best artists out there
exactly how i feel. he is what every great artist wants to be in my opinion. i wish he could make one final album :(
I HEARD THAT HE'S WORKING WITH DUA LIPA AND BILLIE EILISH, AND HE'S GOING TO BE RELEASING SONGS THIS YEAR but don't get your hopes too high.. although its hard not too :/
He’s back!!! Finally ❤️
@@NafthaliHananja we thank God lol
Je me souviens de cette chanson, je l'ai découvert il y a deux ans au Brésil 🇧🇷, à cette époque là je ne comprenais un mot de français et aujourd'hui cela me fait chaud au cœur d'y pouvoir tout comprendre en France🇫🇷. Viva Cesária Évora, Viva Stromae 🎵
For the people in the comments saying they feel sad after they watched the video, it is probably because you remember a time when you were apart of the video and now it is no longer like that. Or it could be that you envy it because you never had anything like that to begin with. I hope you all have something like this in the future ❣️
Belle manière de découvrir une langue et bravo pour votre maîtrise du français.

C'est le meilleur clip de musique que j'ai jamais vu! Cet air naturel donne vraiment l'impression qu'on fait tous parti d'une famille. C'est tellement chaleureux.
How many beautiful people !…Happy people….REAL PEOPLE. The kind of party where I´d like to be. Cesaria Evora deserve this.
This is one of Stromae's greatest songs, why is it not as widely known as the others?
+Paulo Zhan
because he did too many great songs and people tend to not listen the whole thing but only a few songs :]
much wow yeah you're right, it is so unfortunate. I think if they actually gave it a chance, everyone would like it. It is not as catchy as Papaoutai or Tous les mêmes but listen to this vibe, makes me want to move my feet ...
+Paulo Zhan well it does have 7 million views, that's alot
+much wow yeah I'm agree With U he is a Great Singer, even though I don't speak French, he is one of my favorite artist
+Paulo Zhan This also is 'cause not everyone understands what the song is about, and know Cesaria Evora. So the lyrics doesn't impact the mind of the listeners.
I love Cesaria Evora and knew her songs for a long time, and the lyrics of this song touched me instantly ! That's why I completely agree with you =) !
As a Capeverdean its cool to see that people from around the world loves and apreciates Cesaria too, and the video looks like a normal capeverdean family reunion
On aimes le Cap vert et on respect son histoire
I was looking for this comment
We adore Cesaria in Greece.I attended her sold out concert in Athens is the 2000s.💜
As someone from the PALOP (Communitie of Countries that speak Portuguese Language), I appreciate even more this song, and it is really touching that this women reached every single corner of the world, and not only Cape Verd, Portugal, Angola... Somewhere in the video I hear "Obrigado" that means Thank you in portuguese... and thats really nice! Congrats Stromae!
For all the people coming after the new single "santé" Cheers to you ! We are so lucky with his come back !!
😁😁😁😁👍👍👍
the music, the dance, the people skins, the smiles, the portuguese "Obrigado", the creole "sodad di nha cesaria" this is so cabo-verdean!!
Desde Martinica ❤️❤️❤️
For all créole people !
Pour moi c'est le plus bel hommage qu'on a pu faire à notre Cesaria Évora🇨🇻 😍❤️Merci beaucoup Stromae
c etait qui Cesaria Evora?? merci
ah ok une chanteuse
Stromae tu nous manques, ta musique parle à tous avec ce qui fait l'essentiel de la vie, nous attendons donc un album et une tournée mondiale afin de rendre l'humanité meilleure, tu peux changer des vies avec ta musique tu es ESSENTIEL :D , ah oui et une denrée rare donc vraiment reviens nous vite
Je suis complètement d'accord il nous manque !

@Ria Dextre 🥂🥂🥂
So I have just realized that the filming from 3:21 was done by that adorable little girl. At 3:57 the tall dude comes in and hoists the little girl to his shoulders so that she can film higher. And then at 4:09 that other guy takes over the camerawork. At 4:12 is a shot of how tall dude and little girl who has just handed over the camera look like.
It's all really really good.
I never realized.. I thought he just took it from her but this is so much more adorable and heartwarming aw
If Heaven exists it must be a place like this.
love
Oh you have such low expectations.
I didn't like all that I saw in Cuba, but the best things were the multiracial people with amazing skin colors and the music everywhere. Even though Stromae's not referring to the same culture, this video makes me think of it :)
@@chuckychuck8318 actually you have to have very high expectations to think heaven is anything more than a feel good myth
Well there is a heaven and it'll be lovely
The most underated song of youtube, if more people could understand french, this would easily get past 1 000 000 000.
The song is excellent, to me is one of most richest musically. Speak frech would be great but, speak the native language is no necessary to appreciate good music!
Some people can’t understand Spanish songs and despacito still gets 1B
@@socksfersold yeah and despacito lyrics are dogshit lol, the world is fucked up bro
nah. today people listen to shit like nicky minaj. come on.. people as majority have horrible lack of judgement.
The song is good by itself, but agreed that the lyrics are very good and deserve to be appreciated. So poetic!
Fun Fact: Stormae(Paul Van Haver) is occasionally speaking Portuguese, the official language of Cape Verde (where this is being recorded) and where Césaria Évora was born (Note she was born Portuguese but Cape Verde (former Portuguese colony) became independent in 1975 after the Portuguese carnation revolution in 74').
This song can be interpreted as an Ode to Césaria Évora probably the greatest artist of Cape Verde.
So proud to be Cape verdean 🇨🇻 love my country ❤️
Thank you for such an informative comment.
this just proved it because i was thinking 'this sounds and feels so familiar' im half Cape verdean. thank you for this fact i really didnt know :)
This was recorded in "de vooruit" in Ghent. Witch was a socialist movement house building of handlabor displaying their crafts. A cultural house for the common workmen..
Fun Fact: Stormae(Paul Van Haver) sing in french 99% of the time.
Oh saudade, saudade da minha Cesária!!! Que linda canção!

This is a song from the planet of love.
You mean earth?
And Demons we call Animals.

Demons are not what bible told you. Demons are the sons of Lucifer, a rebel who got his asskicked. (ImProJesusTho).
The song is sung in French to the Capo Verdean family members of Cesaria Evora who speak Portuguese, so touching and moving. Song and music 🎶 has no boundaries and it's understood by everyone no matter the language.
my mom's name is cesaria and she died last week, this song makes me feel closer to her. love u Stomae
Courage encore
I hope you have found peace, João. RIP
Bless her soul .
Courage bro ❤️
Rip to her! Very sorry for your loss.
This song makes me nostalgic for some reason, remembering my childhood, birthday parties in Haiti where I grew up with my little cousins and friends. Now we're split apart, dealing with adulthood by ourselves, and having no idea how to manage.
Sak pase amie!

Vittor Drones
it is coladeira . an african music from cabo verde
vittor drone
the music references the portuguese word "saudade", it accurately reflects the feeling that you are having
This song is criminally underrated also a beautiful tribute at the same time.
Well, for the english speakers, the lyrics written here do not justice at all at the "real" lyrics. There are so much powerful, melancholic, in love, and beautiful..

As only the romances languages can be.
this is why i am happy i am taking French bc i have found Stromae through this and bc i will soon know the real meaning of this

Lyrics !!!
Evora, Evora
Evora, Evora
Evora, Evora
Evora, Evora
[Couplet 1]
Les effluves de rhum dans ta voix, me font tourner la tête
Tu me fais danser du bout des doigts, comme tes cigarettes
Immobile, comme à ton habitude, mais es-tu devenue muette ?
Ou est-ce à cause des kilomètres, que tu ne me réponds plus...
[Refrain]
Evora, Evora, tu ne m'aimes plus ou quoi ?
Evora, Evora, après tant d'années
Evora, Evora, une de perdue, c'est ça ?
Evora, Evora, je te retrouverai, c'est sûr...
[Couplet 2]
Souviens-toi de la première fois, où nos regards s'étaient croisés
Même que ton oeil disait merde à l'autre, surtout à moi
Mais pourquoi moi, alors que les autres te trouvaient bien trop laide
Peut-être que moi je suis trop bête, mais je sais t'écouter
[Refrain]
Evora, Evora, tu ne m'aimes plus ou quoi ?
Evora, Evora, après tant d'années
Evora, Evora, une de perdue, c'est ça ?
Evora, Evora, je te retrouverai, c'est sûr...
[Couplet 3]
Ave Cesaria, chapeau pour la route à pieds
Nue est, et nue était, Diva aux pieds nus, restera
Et à vie Cesaria, et à la mort aussi
Obrigado, tu embrigadas des millions de soldats dans ta patrie
Donc garde à vous Cesaria, tu nous as tous quand même bien eus
Ah tout le monde te croyait disparue, mais tu es revenue
Sacrée Cesaria, quelle belle leçon d'humilité
Malgré toutes ces bouteilles de rhum, tous les chemins mènent à la dignité
[Refrain]
Evora, Evora, tu ne m'aimes plus ou quoi ?
Evora, Evora, après tant d'années
Evora, Evora, une de perdue, c'est ça ?
Evora, Evora, je te retrouverai, c'est sûr...

The video concept is about the cycle of life. If you notice the camera man keeps on changing from different periods of a human age, first he is old sitting not knowing how to turn on a camera, telling his wife to move out of the way looking at another woman's fat ass, then he is a married man asking his son where is his mother/wife is, then in the bathroom they switch to a young adult, smoking, partying, and everything else, then it is the young girl's time, she notices mostly children dancing and you can tell from the point of view, after that it is a new born, that the family is celebrating.
At the end the old man takes the camera and reveals the new baby being held by the father, and the cycle repeats itself on a faster note after that to end in circles.
wow you went deep! nice
Ннрстпищздз
It could be just a mere coincidence though!
Youssef Boudouch it isnt !
Hadybou Babe it is. This is a tribute to cape verdean singer Cesaria Evora
for who's wondering the meaning of "oh sodade, sadadi di nha cesaria", it's "oh longing, longing for my Cesaria". "saudade" in portuguese is a name for the specific feeling of missing a loved one. As she was from Cape Verde, she spoke a dialect that mixed portuguese with the one from her african ancestors. Peace from Brazil!
Obrigado - let's say it even better: She was Cabo Verdean and spoke Kriol - and Sodad is a Kriol word too. The islands were under colonial Portuguese rule still when she grew up, we're all still forced to speak Portuguese as official language, but all her music is in Kriol ;)
Thank you for sharing this, and let's continue to share her name, music and Cabo Verdean culture, Lusophone and Atlantic connections!
Why do I feel so sad by watching such a happy video?
It’s nostalgic, it’s shot as if you are watching and old happy memory that’s passed
saudade
May be just because you see what you don t have in your own life.
Because happiness is a bit sad too. That's life. People.
You feel sad for the world of today
Это потрясающе красиво! Один из самых талантливых людей планеты ❤️
For the people in the comments saying they feel sad after they watched the video, it is probably because you remember a time when you were apart of the video and now it is no longer like that. Or it could be that you envy it because you never had anything like that to begin with. I hope you all have something like this in the future ❣️
Ezekiel’s Brother- yeah. Even though I grew up in a typical middle class American family, there were movies and videos such as this that gave me a sort of happiness. One movie that did that was “Because of Winn-Dixie”, and I feel so nostalgic just thinking about all these instances
This hit me differently man.
Actually it's true, I left my hometown in the pursuit of the so called "better life" (which was basically 7 years of verbal, physical and sexual abuse and the beginning of the downhill of my already damaged mental health but meh) now I don't have any memories with my family and the fewer I can remember are slowly erasing themselves off of my memory. So yeah, these types of videos make me feel kinda nostalgic.
Saudade
For those who don't know, this is a tribute to Cesária Évora, a singer of "morna" ( a cape verdean music genre, wich is considered the national music of Cape Verde ).
Cesária Évora passed away in 2011.
"Sodade" or "Saudade" in portuguese means "missing a thing", is a deep emotional state for an absence of someone/something that One person loves.
Hope, for those who didn't know, I have helped them figuring out a bit of the meaning of this Song.
Cabo Verde! Portugal^^
Obrigado Stromae!!
Yes indeed, best known for morna music - which UNESCO also recognized as official cultural heritage. But we also play coladera and Cabo Verde has many different rhythms like funana too. Thank you for sharing this info with the people. Please continue to share and enjoy all the musics of our islands!
That looks like the best party ever. Family freinds children. Awesome
+Steffen Nielsen in this clip we see a typical cape verdean family party. All messy and funny, extended family, lots and lots of food and alcohol. Stromae pays tribute to Cesaria Evora and Cape Verde culture
+Hersy Borges I wish my family were like that. I mean, we sorta are but we don't have big meetups.
Truly one of the most beautiful videos ever by one of the best artists ever. Stromae is my new favorite
Je pleure encore et encore a chaque fois que j'entends cette chanson!!! C'est inexplicable, elle vous prends juste aux tripes, au corps, et on ne s'en lasse pas...!!! Encore bravo pour ce bel hommage!!!
i do not speak french, but you could tell how much heart he puts into his singing. Its pure, yet he has fun with it.
Stromae restera toujours une légende, ce titre est magnifique..
can't find the reason why every time i watch this music video, i feel like i need to cry like a baby.
me too
Exactly
Its nostalgic, it takes you to a place you've never even been to
maybe if you know he is Césaria Évora you can undrstand (sorry for my english) ☺
This reminds me so much back in 2007 when I was seven years old, living in my grandparent's house, and in december, the whole family get reunited, cousins, uncles, aunties, mothers, fathers, brothers, everyone celebrating the last month of the year with music and a lot of food, my little doggie Lupe running all around the house because she loved people so much, the fireworks on the sky and the neighbours waving their hands from across the streets as a way of salute but also as a goodbye to the year that it's ending, everything about this video makes me feel like a kid again in my far away country, my city, my people.
We're the same age😊
The most beautiful celebration of a person who found the divine life, I'm sure Cesaria Evora is so proud and happy to know she was so loved by all of us. Merci, Obrigado, Thank you. CESARIA!
Me encanta este video donde puedo ver a tantas personas celebrando en familia. Siento gran nostalgia porque me recuerda a mi niñez y a las fiestas que mi familia organiza en una gran casa. Sin duda, una bonita entrega de un momento fantástico. A diferencia de todos los otros artistas que siempre protagonizan todas sus canciones. Cesaria Evora fue una grna cantante de Cabo verde en Portugal. Esta canción parece ser un homenaje a la "diva de pies desnudos". Saludos desde Perú :)
Pensé lo mismo.
Lo es. Stromae es su gran admirador
Muito Obrigado Stromae, tu nous réalise une très belle chanson à l'honneur de cette immense étoile du Cap Vert. Quel bonheur . Até à próxima.
Being young you take these family gathering for granted, those celebrations like they will last forever. Growing up you realise that they're now part of wonderful memories fueling nostalgia and precious joy of knowing how it feels to be loved and part of a family.
*__* J'adore... Déjà que la chanson en elle même je l'adorais, là... c'est plus que de l'amour que j'ai pour ce clip!!! Vraiment c'est extraordinaire !! je, je n'ai pas de mots pour décrire... Je ne sais pas si c'est ce que je préfère le plus dans le clip mais.. Que Stromae mette plus en avant la famille, les danseurs ect. j'adore... Souvent dans les clips de chanteurs célèbres, c'est le chanteur que l'on vois le plus, alors qu'ici, c'est complètement l'inverse... ça rend le clip encore plus surprenant et unique... Bref, ce clip est renversant... ♥
Ce type c'est une mine d'or, il arrête pas de m'impressionner. ^^
Les fêtes dans les famille du sud c'est comme ça, les générations mélangées, c'est bondé, les enfants qui courent partout et surtout de la chaleur humaine. On peut le prendre comme une ode à la famille, mais il prend aussi le risque de ne pas plaire à tout le monde pour indiquer que finalement ce qui compte vraiment, c'est la chanson en elle même et non sa mise en image. Même si ça n'a pas l'air, techniquement c'est très bien foutu et le petit clin d'oeil final à nos vieilles K7 VHS des années 80-90 réenregistrées de nombreuses fois est vraiment sympa
"Malgré toutes ces bouteilles de rhum, tous les chemins mènent à la dignité" ♥
ses fort
ça veut dire quoi stp(même si ton commentaire date un peu)
Olivier Michel c'est un jeu de mots avec l'expression "tous les chemins mènent à Rome". Là, c'est pour exprimer que malgré son alcholisme (je pense) elle a tout de même réussi à retrouver sa dignité car toutes les vies finissent en dignité.
@@miurtouissi1093
Il faut connaître la vie de Césaria Evora. Elle pouvait chanter dans des barres pour un salaire de misère. Quelques kg de pdt, légumes ou fruits et surtout quelques verres d'alcool. Plus une vie privée difficile.
J'ai eu la chance de la voir sur scène. Un merveilleux souvenir...

2:57 - 3:07 appreciating Stromae is great and all but can we also take a second to appreciate how smooth these dudes were? i replay this part multiple times whenever i see it haha i love how smooth that part was
thank you Belgium for bearing the best human being ever
Um...Stromae is French...
Um, French is the lang, Stromae is Belgium
Dylan Bevernaege umm yeah that's what I said....
u
Stromae is from belguim. He speaks French.
the first Stromae song I heard, I just love the way he combines all those elements of the cavaquinho and accordion to create such a languid sound, it's beautiful. Just like the video, it seems chaotic but it's the simplicity of how music can make people want to dance and express their emotions. Not to mention the storytelling in the song, almost an afterthought after all those other elements but just like the rest of Stromae's music, the message and underlying meaning are always fascinating
Chaque fois que je regarde ce clip, la nostalgie me prend et j'ai limite les larmes aux yeux.
Il me fait énormément penser aux fêtes de familles passées en Guadeloupe, avec les cousins, la famille... et filmé de la même manière avec les caméscopes de l'époque 😊
My favorite thing here is at 1:53 when the guy asked "where is your mom?" and the kid answered "dunno" and continued running without giving a shit abt where his mom is :')
"chais pas!" :)
He was on his own agenda 😂
well this is the answer a child gives in a family reunion
This is easily one of the most pure and beautiful music video ever made.
agree
Rest in Peace Cesaria Évora! Growing up listening to your music and never forgetting it is a testament to your immense talent and beautiful voice.
This song is like the colours of all cultures together. It feels like this to me!. Love it!
It s lusotropicalism. Mix of portuguese, african and brazilian culture. But the tribute is to a cape verde singer Cesaria Evora.
@@joaobeloferreira9823 its actually the music genre that Cesaria is known for
Its a distint style from her island Sao Vicente in Cape Verde named coladera

This album is one of those few album I love Entirely there's NOT a single song that I don't love, is pure perfection. And this song is a perfect example of it
Esse vídeo me remete aos tempos em que minha avó estava viva. Toda a família reunida curtindo o momento. Stromae é um artista único!
Un grand et beau hommage à ma DIVA CESARIA. Tu es énorme cher Stromae 👏
J'adore cette chanson ! Elle est full de joie! Allons célébrer la vie!! Gracias, obrigada, Stromae!💃🏻❤️
I’ve watched this video a million times and it gets better every time. The celebration of family, the abundance of beauty. Just mmm mmm good. Merci beaucoup pour cette ouevre
Waouh... quelle musique remplie d'émotion. Très heureux de l'écouter. Merci Maestro Stromae.
Stromae!!
Es increíble! !
Lo descubrí hace poco y no puedo dejar de escucharlo!
Ojalá pueda disfrutar de uno de sus recitales alguna vez ♡
Saludos desde Argentina!
Attending his concert in Minneapolis last night. By far the best concert experience I have ever had! Better than Beyoncé, Jay z and all the other artists I've seen. He picked a small intimate venue which made it even better.
Highly suggest getting tickets to any show NOW
that's true,I went to his concert 3 days ago and it was literally the best night of my life
I dont know how i feel about my american friends now discovering him.. Niusha Hugo I'm glad you had the same experience!
Bria Felix It was life changing! He sounded better live than on his tracks which is mind blowing. Also his live band is extremely talented, the lights engineer made the show incredible as well. I think ppl are posting video check them out.
Well, ofc it's a good show if you compare to Beyonce and Jay-Z >_
Escoriza Loic Not saying everyone feels this way, its a personal preference. I prefer actually seeing the artists up close and personal over looking at a huge screen with everyone screaming so loud you cant hear anything
I have just read the meaning of the lyrics.
The references on each line.
I can only say one thing:
Stromae, you are the definition of an artist. A fucking genius in my opinion.
I know you don't like this characterizations but i can't help it.
Especially with all that shit that we are ''bombed'' in the mainstream music scene!
Kudos, my friend!!!
Мне кажется у представителей всех стран мира посмотревших этот клип, в душе стало тепло и радостно, каждый вспомнил себя на месте этих людей рядом со своей семьёй, друзьями и близкими... Супер просто. ААААУУУУУ Россия!!!! КТО ЗДЕСЬ СО МНОЙ????
Привет с Казахстана!
Украина здесь (=
Le rythme est de kap vert...
The world is with you
Удивительно!услышав песню Стромае Sante,я вспомнила обожаемую Цезарию.Я слышала ее мотивы у Стромае.И сечас я вижу в первый раз этот его клип,посвященый Цезарии.Вечная память ей с ее чудесными песнями и всего наилучшего Стромае❤❤❤
On ne se lasse pas de regarder cette vidéo et d'écouter cette chanson. On est comme ensorcelés. Bravo Stromae, tu es le plus grand de tous. Merci pour toutes ces émotions.
"oi sodad
sodad de minha cesaria
oi sodad"
Trés belle musique, merci stromae, obrigada cesaria...
Je frissonne partout quand j'entends cette chanson. C'est merveilleuse!!! Bisou du Brèsil
The whole video reminds me of my cousins' weddings back in Cuba. Those were all good times.
Stromae know how to make feel good music.... Geez am totally mesmerized by all his work. Just a work of art and I did not need a translator to feel these emotions. Just BEAUTIFUL
Im Brazilian and this music sounds so familiar! the beat is so nice
Same here
Acho que é pelo instrumento de corda que tem.
É um tributo de um belga a uma cantora cabo verdiana. Nota se um pc do luso tropicalismo. A cultura brasileira é muito rica por causa dessas misturas todas.
o cavaquinho lembra nosso pagode 💚
Sim!! É familiar demais ❤️
Stromae: on aime ou on n'aime pas. Eh bien, moi j'aime bien. Un petit souffle du Cap Vert. Danse et joie de vivre, avec un brin de nostalgie. Hommage à une grande dame.
Ca veux dire quoi hommage (je suis americaine mais je parle français)
pinkelephant a tribute, to praise/compliment
pinkelephant memories
merci madame de ce commentaire tres pertinent
Vive le cap-vert !!! 😄😘😍👍💜💜❤💋
Merci de faire voyager et de faire connaître des sons différents et magnifique à des gens qui ne connaissent pas ce genre de son inconnu par la plupart des gens.... merci de faire vivre l'esprit de la musique 🥰🥰
This song is to beautiful, Hope someday i’ll have a big family like them. God bless you Stromae!
Loves from my family from Asia. If anyone is reading this, i hope we are healthy and safe. May God bless you always my friend.
