    Manu Chao is French-Spanish, born in Paris. This song was so big in Central Europe in the late 90s that it's hard to imagine Anthony not knowing it.

      He is way younger to know and catch the wave of Manu Chao

      Manu Chao has Spanish parents who lived in Paris in Exil. In the 90’s he traveled with his bands (Mano Negra and other collaborations) through South America. He was also a foundation member of attac, an European aid organisation who cares for immigrants and social issues.

      Huge in Sweden too, so probably most of Europe was banging this. Was also surprised he didn't know, but if he's a young boy and not an old fart like me (us) it makes sense.

    french lyrics : "je ne t'aime plus, mon amour" : i don't love you anymore, my love
    "je ne t'aime plus, tous les jours" : i don't love you anymore, each day (meaning some days, yes)
    "Parfois j'aimerais mourir tellement j'ai voulu croire" : sometimes i'd like to die because i wanted to believe so much (litterally)
    "parfois j'aimerais mourir pour ne jamais te revoir" : sometimes i'd like to die to never see you again
    Thanks to both of you for your content that i 've been following separatly for a few years now, leading me through Harry Mack for example... as well as Knocxhill, That singer and Cliff, funny story for me and for you..
    Fun facts, i discovered Ren (hi ren) by myself, i was blown away and i'm glad to see you all reacting to him and supporting him.

      Romain's also from Toulouse in the south of France so his accent is more pronounced than in the north (i.e. Paris) let alone in Belgium. Their French differs like UK and US English differs.

    I don't speak French, I just threw the original lyrics into deepl
    Sometimes I'd like to die, so much I wanted to believe
    Sometimes I'd like to die, to have nothing left
    Sometimes I'd like to die, never to see you again
    I don't love you any more my love
    I don't love you any more
    I don't love you anymore my love
    I don't love you anymore every day
    Sometimes I'd like to die, there's no hope left
    Sometimes I'd like to die, never to see you again
    Sometimes I'd like to die, to know nothing more

    • @CirTap
      @CirTap Год назад +1

      DeepL usually does a good job, but "poems" and "lyrics" are not it's strong point, as there is a lot of room for interpretation.
      It gets better with proper punctuations in the source (which lyrics barely have) and it helps to split sentences at meaningful boundaries - and to know a bit of the target language 🤓
      Like "tous le jour" (or toujours) means daily, all day long, always, or forever etc. based on context.
      Some (semantic) corrections:
      I don't love you any more, my love.
      I don't love you any more, forever.
      (repeat)
      Sometimes I want to die, there's no hope left.
      Sometimes I want to die, there's nothing left to have.
      Sometimes I want to die, to no longer know you.

    Manu Chao is a French-Spanish singer. He sings in French, Spanish, English, Italian, Arabic, Catalan, Galician, Portuguese, Greek, and occasionally in other languages. Chao began his musical career in Paris, busking and playing with groups such as Hot Pants and Los Carayos, which combined a variety of languages and musical styles. With friends and his brother Antoine Chao, he founded the band Mano Negra in 1987, achieving considerable success, particularly in Europe. He became a solo artist after its breakup in 1995 and since then tours regularly with his live band, Radio Bemba. (copy and paste from wiki)

  • @mariannehoffmann2875

    Manu Chao est français. Il a apporté de "l'exotisme" à la culture musicale francaise avec Mano Negra d'abord puis en solo. À la même époque on a vu apparaître différents groupes qui ont apporté d'autres sonorités comme Sergent Garcia par exemple qui a fait du rap-salsa fusion.
    Pour Manu Chao et cette chanson précise, Ray a raison il y a un double sens. Pour moi la chanson parle de l'amour de Manu Chao pour son art et son style, qui ne sont pas appréciés du grand public. Dans son univers il était le roi mais en voulant conquérir les charts il n'était plus le roi de rien. C'est pour ça qu'il dit je ne t'aime plus mon amour à sa musique. Au final il est heureux de rester à sa place et d'être un roi sans couronne dans ce qu'il sait faire.
    C'est comme ça que j'interprète la chanson.

  • @ChrisLawton66
    @ChrisLawton66 Год назад +2

    They are all amazing musicians. Between them thay have amazing harmonies, great music production, and excellent video production. Very simple, but as exemplified from Ren's walk on at the beginning, they relly plan out their shots. The camera work by Luke Flegg showing Ren as he stifles laughter indicating that he keeps laughing and having to start over and then following him as he sits just in time to sing. Weaving in and out and focusing on the right things at the right time. I could go on and on about the synergy between the four of them. They were a fantastic band.

  • @ner0p
    @ner0p Год назад +1

    The part of this song in french is somewhat easy to "understand" but its context is not straightforward, mainly because it is (to my understanding) disconnected from the main part of the song. Anyway, the parts in french I interpret them this way:
    _Je ne t’aime plus mon amour_
    I don't love you anymore my love
    _Je ne t’aime plus tous les jours_
    I don't love you anymore every single day
    _Parfois j’aimerais mourir, tellement j’ai voulu croire_
    Sometimes I'd like to die for how much I wanted to believe (another interpretation could be: Sometimes I'd like to die, that much I wanted to believe)
    _Parfois j’aimerais mourir, pour ne plus rien avoir_
    Sometimes I'd like to die to have nothing at all (another interpretation could be: Sometimes I'd like to die to not have you in my life)
    _Parfois j’aimerais mourir, pour plus jamais te voir_
    Sometimes I'd like to die to never see you again
    Whatever the case, I read this part as someone heartbroken by his/her love, wishing to be dead and/or to forget the pain that that love ended up causing. Like I said, this bit seems out of place considering the rest of the song's lyrics - which btw also are open to interpretation, in my opinion, was the "monkey" happy in his jungle or was he happy in the big city? A king without a crown, is it appreciation or depreciation? The song doesn't seem to explain any of this, but maybe some external context exists.

  • @CirTap
    @CirTap Год назад +5

    This was massive in Europe so I'm surprised Anthony never heard this even as a young lad 😉
    Some posted the literal "machine" translation in the comments but poems and lyrics need more interpretation.
    The prospect of losing the other person is behind the last three line Anthony had a hard time to understand (Romain's heavy southern French accent): "I no longer want to live *because* without you being part of my future there's no hope, everything is lost, and I will forget you existed."
    Wrapped in these alliterations Anthony mentioned.
    Original:
    Je ne t'aime plus, mon amour.
    Je ne t'aime plus, tous les jours (2x)
    Parfois j'aimerais mourir tellement y'a plus d'espoir.
    Parfois j'aimerais mourir pour plus jamais te revoir.
    Parfois j'aimerais mourir pour ne plus rien savoir.
    Here are some "semantic" corrections from a human to the machine translations :
    I no longer love you, my love.
    I no longer love you, forever.
    (2x)
    Sometimes I want to die, there's no hope left.
    Sometimes I want to die, there's nothing left to have.
    Sometimes I want to die, to no longer know you.

    Manu Chao is French and his parents were from Spain but lived in France so he grew up bilingual with French + Spanish...before he became a solo artist he was part of the french band "Mano Negra" combining different styles of music like punk, ska, alternative music and the song "Bongo Bong" was originally a Mano Negra song titeled "King of the Bongo" but was totally different musically arranged and had way more drive with lot´s of drum work and didn´t have the "Je ne t´aime plus" part.

    I am 100% guessing but to me, "Hear me when I come" if I am taking meaning from the rest of the song means. "I'm the king of the bongo". He means he is LARGE in many ways. You will hear the crowd chanting his name and/or. He is metaphorically so big that you literally hear his steps.
