i wish americans could understand his songs when they play, it litterally hits you in the face . im glad he translates them now in videos. his lyrics are haunting and magnificent at the same time.
I love his music, his presence, his intelligence. I love it all. I wish I spoke French :( haha but it's fascinating how even in another language, his music still speaks to me
***** That is such a typical and closed minded statement. To assume that all Americans are that way. You should practice what you preech and don't judge others by the title of their nationality.
Salsa originated from Africa it’s mostly influenced if you heard clearly he mentioned Congolese music and salsa most of the slavers taken to South America were Congolese
He's not only an interviewer but also a great artist. He's the founder of the record label Talkin' Loud and he has a famous radio show "Worldwide", so famous his show is also one of the channels of the videogame GTA V.
Just watching this in 2022. Hearing him talk about Bolivian music - the acceleration and slowing down - this is Sante. So happy that we finally hear the fruits of his investigations.
@@anthonykleon1279 No, it's cool. It's weird because we're used to listening to his songs sung in French. We already know that a lot of young Europeans speak English
Interesting what he says about being inspired by Bolivian music and the rhythm of South American music with its acceleration and slowing down. That’s exactly what I heard in Santé 7 years later. I wonder how long he has these ideas in his head!
I'm so pleased to see real intelligence in dance music. My 14 year old son absolutely loves you and so do I (45) You have this great ability with levels of understanding and crossing age gaps. Bien fait jeune homme !
I'm happy I'm reading something like that. It's actually the same with ME and my mother - I'm 14 and my mum also listen to Stromae a bit. Everybody finds something in his music.
Just a brief comment : in French, "bien fait ! " (well done !) when used as an interjection means "Serves you right !", which is not cool. You shoulb prefer "Beau travail !" which means "Great job !".
He's better than the artists in America, why can't we have him? He's messages are so powerful and he was so inspired and he put passion into his work. I'd rather hear would it's like when your wondering about a great father - rather than to have sex with one. Also he's so adorable
@@mwanikimwaniki6801 Yea, Including myself. Not everyone can ace a second language though. Ik ppl who’ve been learning English as their second for years and still struggle.
His voice is wonderful in both languages :o He's also quite handsome :3 But mostly I just love his music. When I first heard it, I really felt the beat and flow of it and I LOVE the sound of his voice and the music videos are wonderful. Because I don't speak French though, I obviously couldn't understand what the songs meant so I did something out of character for me. I actually did a little research to figure it out instead of being content with just liking the way it sounds and I found that I felt his music even more. He has quickly become one of my favorites and so far is the only musician I actually wish I could meet.
Heey Tashana :) The other I searched on the internet for the meaning of the phrase "down to earth". I was thinking that it means sth like humble. However, it is something different. It is about being realistic. It seems that you had the similar confusion while writing this comment :)
Papaoutai song actually meant a lot for me, I started question myself "why not be a father?". I mean, never thought of being one, but the video and the lyrics made me start thinking that maybe I'm losing something, maybe being a father is not just a problems, there should be a good part, it must be.
I love the message of the song 'Papaoutai', and I can totally relate! It definitly has inspired me, and helped me and my fathers relationship a lot! I had no idea that a song could effect me this much as this amazing song did, I am so grateful! Love you Stromae Please come to Denmark soon - Sanne
Great interview and yes, his English has improved a lot! Bravo to him! I am learning French now and listening to his music helps but I have a long way to go! I can't wait for his next cd.
The guy is a genius! And altho I'm not a fan of his sound I do admire the way he found the code to catch everybody's attention! Worldwide! His music is genius! I also think he's a true popstar that comes the closest to where MichaelJackson set the bar! Without going for the cheesy ways to stay relevant in the industry! His vision, his view on a bigger picture and detail...Pure genius! One of the better products our little country has to offer ;) #props
Two of my favourite musicians! Gilles, will see you in Dorset in October. Stromae, you are absolutely fantastic and being in Belgium I get to see your creativity. Hey you're English is great too!
I'm glad someone is making music to support the people in their every day feeling as politics and society allowed to fail us. I think this connection is the beginning of many more, maybe now the curtains are dropped, this generation of positive thinkers is going to step up, to make us feel connected again. To make us remember: it's ok to make mistakes, we not only know how to forgive, we also know how to forgive with a smile and we know how to dance with you to the next level.
I really appreciate Stromae's straight-forwardness of his music. I really take a liking to how the music matches his videos and how he never is the same as others ( especially in the US). I hope to see more of his wonderful music!
Rossoneri King "your name isn't Australian" lol how ignorant first of all i have to define you what is australian name "everything that has aboriginal origin" ex. Yarra, Konol 2. daniela isn't certainly australian or american, it's hebrew name that is adopted in almost every culture
Belgians speaking English sounds quite different from French people speaking English. It's super interesting!! // Le façon dont les belges parlent anglais est très different que le façon dont les français parlent anglais. C'est vraiment intéressant!!
when he said "people know how to make babies but not how to make fathers" it really touched me and was genius haha love him
i wish americans could understand his songs when they play, it litterally hits you in the face . im glad he translates them now in videos. his lyrics are haunting and magnificent at the same time.
Fay E French art is usually like that: movies, songs, paintings, sculptures, etc. Very expressive and beautiful if you know how to appreciate it.
Júlia very true! i really consider his songs art as you say.
I can nearly speak about that sometimes because of my niece and because of that i like his songs so much !!
From 4 years you collected likes and now i turn them to 1K. nice
I'm so mad I quit french classes. SO MAD
I just chose it for my gcse and I Want to DIE EVERY LESSOM
Did you go back to learning? Go back! Keep at it! 🙌
I’m so glad I decided to continue my French classes lmao
About to pick french for my GCSE’s. Way better than Spanish tbh. Plus Spanish isn’t really spoken in Europe where I live especially in Ireland
Dude it's never too late👌🏻
I like how he switches to French each time he can't get it in English. Super cute voice😍😍😍😍😍
Tsuipp
France Valerie c la jalousie qui va t tuer😂.Tsuiipp
Crème Vanille Gerl mafff kit la 😂😂😂
+Crème Vanille Gerl honestly, so adorable :)
Omg same, I was gonna comment that xD he's so adorable and amazing
He has a very good pronunciation
He is so humble and "normal" despite his HUGE talent! The fame hasn't made him the least big-headed. Oh mi gosh, I am in love...
How can people not be in love with him? Its impossible!
Yea im also in love.. :/
Oh, he appears like such an intelligent, humble, and lovely guy! His music is just, perfect.
At first, I hated french class. Now I'm glad I'm taking it.
+Black Fox But... he is speaking english here. lol
+Black Fox omfg same
sameeeee my French teacher introduced him to us and he's so awesome. too bad some of his stuff is blocked in the country: (
Haley Norris late reply, but if you go to settings and change the country to France, they should be there.
+Reina oh okay thank you. :)
"Grammy" "No, granny" Oh my gosh that was adorable :')
I love his music, his presence, his intelligence. I love it all. I wish I spoke French :( haha but it's fascinating how even in another language, his music still speaks to me
***** my parents speak full French so I can understand some of what he says...
***** Coming from the dude who used lol but doesn't speak English.
Lol means, "laughing out loud." I don't see one French word in that. Oops, I mean Français.
***** That is such a typical and closed minded statement. To assume that all Americans are that way. You should practice what you preech and don't judge others by the title of their nationality.
EXACTLY! ! I love Stromae so much! He's amazing!
Does anyone else think it's so adorable when he struggles to find the correct English words?? 😭😂
No
Yes😅
+Britney Bear a girl can find cuteness in everything. haha
yea
A gremmy asking for an autogram
8:00
7 years later, that piece came. Love that he got inspired by a South American country to make such a beautiful song just as Santé is
IT FINALLY DID COME!
Yes! I was looking for this comment right after I heard him say it
@GamingIvory he’s half African and half Belgian that’s why my mate
Salsa originated from Africa it’s mostly influenced if you heard clearly he mentioned Congolese music and salsa most of the slavers taken to South America were Congolese
I love this dude, his style is so 'out of the box' and it really works :) he's amazing.
Wuv u stromae
check out Die Antwoord. totally out of the box too lol way out
Lily Stevens im your 100st like
stromae is literally gorgeous
HES SO ADORABLE, IM SCREAMING
I started screaming too LOL
ugh shelly how could he be so darn cute!?
ugh shelly I know hehe
shelly c HES SO FREAKING CUTE I KNOW
.
I salute this interviewer, one of the only few to actually listen to his music and becoming familiar with Stromae before interviewing him
He's not only an interviewer but also a great artist. He's the founder of the record label Talkin' Loud and he has a famous radio show "Worldwide", so famous his show is also one of the channels of the videogame GTA V.
Everything about Stromae is just so beautiful 😍😭
he's so cute when he says that the Italian granny was cute
Are you the cute granny finding cute to be called cute? :D
"everybody knows how to make babys but nobody knows how to make fathers"
me cryyiingg !!
Where?
Alana A'ga 6:11. It's in reference to his song 'Papaoutai'.
"Me crying"?
+Patrick3183 If I'm not wrong, it sounds like English is their second language.
He is the prettiest man
I cannot even express his voice,it's that good
Just watching this in 2022. Hearing him talk about Bolivian music - the acceleration and slowing down - this is Sante. So happy that we finally hear the fruits of his investigations.
His voice is so beautiful when he's talking and singing. It's so mesmerizing like trying to put someone to sleep
Tous Les Memes is my favorite song honestly.
They're all awesome, but that, "Ta Fête" and "Formidable".
Allie Holmgren Yes!
It's incredible how bold his personalities are when he's acting. I did not expect him to be that humble. What an amazing person.
Even when he curses (4:35) its sexy in that accent and that voice...
I can listen to him curse all day 🙈😍
It's so weird to hear him speak english, but in a good way.
+Tim Stahel (tjojen1) His accent when he speaks English is adorable though!
+NAVI More than adorable, it's beautiful.
Couldn't have been said any better x)
@@anthonykleon1279 No, it's cool. It's weird because we're used to listening to his songs sung in French. We already know that a lot of young Europeans speak English

Congolese music literally more the musics that he said are originated from Africa
and right there Stromae talks bout the sounds from Bolivia that he loved which you can now hear in his new single, Santé.
he has perfect skin
He has improved A LOT in his english!!!♡♡
he DID! I watched a few old interviews and was pleased to listen to him now.. so much better
so cute how he said autogram and not autograph
I know right!
I didn't even notice before you said XD
I can't believe that men can look like this.He is soooooo handsome.He can be a model aswell.
"everybody knows how to make babies but nobody knows how to make fathers"... Exactly! he's so cute and amazing

You say Bravo, not bien fait. Bien fait means "it serves you right"
« Well done » should rather be translated as « bien joué » ;)
Btw he’s back
I'm so happy that I stumbled upon Stromae. What an incredible talent.
7:55
The man is out here predicting the writing of 'Santé' in 2014!
I was thinking the same
He's better than the artists in America, why can't we have him? He's messages are so powerful and he was so inspired and he put passion into his work.
I'd rather hear would it's like when your wondering about a great father - rather than to have sex with one.
Also he's so adorable
Ciel Phantomhive We take em! We need him
Ciel Phantomhive Definitely! Also, i love Ciel.
Ciel Phantomhive you so right I agree ☝️
America has great artists not all of them are the same
i'm not say that because i'm egyptian
but stromae looks like ancient egyptians !
His father from Rwanda , so !! he is africain after all
He looks East African (Ethiopian, Somali) to me aha
Omneya waheed so true
I think he’s Rwandan which is East African
I KNOW thats what i thought
Crazy to watch this and hear about his interest in Bolivian cumbia and now hearing Santé come out 7 years later.
This man is a literal genius! His songs have like 30 hidden meanings in the main purpose of his song, it’s incredible
i love that his shirt is the same one from papoutai the live performance
I never realized
aww he seems like such a nice person :)
HOW DID I JUST FIND HIM? He is unbelievably talented. I listen to his music on repeat today ♥️
He speaks good english
Ikrr!! And it’s not even his first language
@@nooranoora702 The majority of the world speaks more than one language fluently lol
@@mwanikimwaniki6801 Yea, Including myself. Not everyone can ace a second language though. Ik ppl who’ve been learning English as their second for years and still struggle.

His music is awesome i learned a little bit French for his songs
He is just adorable.
Formidable and Tous Les Memes is my favorite songs 😭❤️
Same + papaputa
He is my favourite artist, perhaps because he is so down to earth and humble. I saw him live in London this month and he is just fantastic.
Heey Tashana :) The other I searched on the internet for the meaning of the phrase "down to earth". I was thinking that it means sth like humble. However, it is something different. It is about being realistic. It seems that you had the similar confusion while writing this comment :)

i love him so much . vous êtes
tres adorable cher stromae
such a nice guy...

I mean, never thought of being one, but the video and the lyrics made me start thinking that maybe I'm losing something, maybe being a father is not just a problems, there should be a good part, it must be.

He's a beautiful human being and I love how meaningful his music is.
I love the message of the song 'Papaoutai', and I can totally relate! It definitly has inspired me, and helped me and my fathers relationship a lot! I had no idea that a song could effect me this much as this amazing song did, I am so grateful!
Love you Stromae
Please come to Denmark soon
- Sanne
literally so fkn in love with this man
I am 60 years old and I watched this artist on Tic Tok playing that song with the charanguito and I felt in love with him!!!
He is literally the most adorable person ever, i absolutely love his music he\is voice is amazing!
6 years ago “what about the next album”
6 years later, still no next album😭💔
Well it's out now ☺️👍 and was worth the wait 😁.
Cool! Glad it's in English, now I can understand everything. :D
his English got so much Juice now, his now an International phenomena. His so talented, his the new Picasso of music
He is beyond adorable! And sooo talented! God Bless him
How the hell have I missed this guy? His music is great!
his voice is so calming 😌👍
I love his accent. Sounds quite romantic. Would love to marry a man with accent like his😆
Thanks for wonderful music -"grandma"from Poland
Great interview and yes, his English has improved a lot! Bravo to him! I am learning French now and listening to his music helps but I have a long way to go! I can't wait for his next cd.
Wow his English is actually sublime.
What a voice
I love his deep and calming voice!
He's so humble and cute. I wanna hug him so much.😊
He is beautiful inside and out

I really appreciate Stromae's straight-forwardness of his music. I really take a liking to how the music matches his videos and how he never is the same as others ( especially in the US). I hope to see more of his wonderful music!
He's the new Michael Jackson...without the plastic surgery and the kids and the OD of drugs. He likes discovering new beats around the world.
Aha I see where your coming from, I thought the same thing too!
Stromae has so much energy on stage, similarly to Michael. That's where I see a small resemblance :)
OMG he is going to change music as we know it. I have drank the cool aid, I am in 100%
excuse me, you are American? ( I would like to know if comments in English are from Europe or from the United States)
Australia mate
Umm your name isn't Australian though.
Rossoneri King wow, ignorance much?..
Rossoneri King "your name isn't Australian" lol how ignorant
first of all i have to define you what is australian name "everything that has aboriginal origin" ex. Yarra, Konol
2. daniela isn't certainly australian or american, it's hebrew name that is adopted in almost every culture
He makes me grateful to be bilingual and to be able to understand his beautiful music!!!
Listening to his music(along with studying) taught me French. 😉
Belgians speaking English sounds quite different from French people speaking English. It's super interesting!! // Le façon dont les belges parlent anglais est très different que le façon dont les français parlent anglais. C'est vraiment intéressant!!
+chanmye Not so much that's an impression. I'm french and his accent sound more like Parisian than belgium.
+Untouch95 He only has a little accent. His pronunciation is great.
I'm french aswell but i wouldn't call his french parisian though
His English is amazing!
I could listen to him all day long. I love it when he talks in english.
He’s just so sweet and shy…you can tell that he is a bit of an introvert when he’s not on stage.
Reminds me a lot of Prince.
Wow he's absolutely BEAUTIFUL and his English is a lot better
It's a thrill listening to him talk. Such a sweet and genuine voice.
I really enjoyed this interview.
Stromae is just a beautifully talented soul.
I am super hyped by his new album. I think it will be the best album of the year.
This guy is sooooooo adorable ❤
Love stromae xXx listen to his track all the time !
"that's the best compliment, to be supported by people who aren't in the same generation as you" gen z here 😌😌😌😌👌👌
oh my gosh hes so pretty
Great interview! Merci beaucoup!
4:36 "The guy in alors on danse is so fucked up in the street". 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Omg I love him so much!!!! He melts me so much!!!! I can't wait to hear his new album 😍😍😍
Love his voice. Bern a fan for lots of years ❤️😇
