SOUNDS LIKE A FRENCH MYSTERY
Every time I hear the sound of this song, something inexplicable happens in my brain that affects my entire body and petrifies me, leaving me without the ability to move or speak.
The string piano vibration and those pure sounds of violin place me directly in the middle of the romantic city of Paris. A combination of instruments and their sounds create a form of art that inspires the mind and heals the heart and gives you the sensation of “chills down the spine”.
It feels like I am walking on a soft warm spring day through this fairytale city, enjoying the smell of the cherry blossom season and gathering all the good energy that this place has to offer and put all these emotions in my secret pocket. It is a strange relaxing feeling but this energizes you, gives you faith that your best version is just around the corner, waiting for the best moment to show up. You just wait for the perfect violin sounds to make a memorable entrance on stage, exactly like you saw in movies.
Unbelievable how a soundtrack has the power to change the way you feel, like you are in a perfect balance with yourself.
Now, you can see how everything is put together, bit by bit and piece by piece, and I start smiling when I see that everything combines so harmoniously, all the emotions, thoughts, feelings, all the good and bad energies, everything is kept in my secret French pocket.
I love to put it on replay, over and over again, and thinking that something connects me with this culture, or maybe it’s just my soul that needs to be somehow connected. But, even though I am not sure what this connection is about, the funny fact is that I have never been in Paris before, not yet, and this didn’t stop me to imagine myself enjoying a cup of coffee with a French croissant on a small coffee table, down a narrow and quiet cobblestone street, listening an amazing street violin player.
I’ve discovered Yann Tiersen years ago when I watched Amélie, the movie, and I instantly fell in love with his music. My favorite song remains La noyée, this song is brilliant.
Sweetheart, dare to be French…to be music… to be heard!
