This is a real pleasure for me to present this collab with my dear friend Alexis :) https://soundcloud.com/alexis-roche-2
Some time ago,  I proposed to Alexis a cover of this "cult" song for our generation in France named "Le vent nous portera" by the very popular group (at the time) Noir désir fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Le_vent_nous_portera . 
I thought his voice would really go well on this kind of mythical song ..reminding us of our student years :)
I must confess I was also very motivated to try the clarinet solo .... such a beautiful solo from https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akosh_Szelev%C3%A9nyi with the metal clarinet .. I think ...this is unique in French Rock'n roll ...or Rock'n roll in general ! We  hope you like our version of it !
Alexis is singing and playing two beautiful guitar parts (nylon strings and electric solo) , I took care of the rest !

Le Vent Nous Portera (Noir Désir) - by Alexis & Steph

Şaşırmasana. Hâlâ verdiği sözü tutan insanlar var.

Mandalina bahcesi

The "Chaussettes Noires" were one of the first rock'n roll band in France https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Les_Chaussettes_noires#Discographie
The "twist du Père Noël" was their hit title from their album "Noël de l'an dernier (1961)".  
What best present to offer to Santa Claus for Christmas ? A guitar which make lots of noise ! That is the great idea of this song ! 
I'm very very happy to welcome Alexis and Pierrou on this cover of this cult song and to wish you all a very happy Christmas ! Thank you for your  listening !

Lyrics 
Noël ! Noël ! Noël !
J'ai un cadeau pour le Père Noël
Un beau cadeau pour le Père Noël
Ce cadeau-là c'est moi qui l'ai choisi
Et je vous jure que j'y ai mis le prix
Il aura des étrennes, lui aussi, c'est promis

J'ai un cadeau pour le Père Noël
La nuit où il descendra du ciel
Il le verra devant ma cheminée
Bien enveloppé dans du papier doré
Jugez de sa surprise quand il saura ce que c'est
Il en aura une barbe blanche qui frémira
Il sera tellement étonné qu'il en restera bouche bée

J'ai un cadeau pour le Père Noël
Un beau cadeau pour le Père Noël
Je vais vous dire ce que c'est, les amis
Une guitare qui fait beaucoup de bruit
Et nous jouerons ensemble du twist toute la nuit

Il en aura une barbe blanche qui frémira
Il sera tellement étonné qu'il en restera bouche bée
J'ai un cadeau pour le Père Noël
Un beau cadeau pour le Père Noël
Je vais vous dire ce que c'est, les amis
Une guitare qui fait beaucoup de bruit
Et nous jouerons ensemble du twist toute la nuit
Allez petit père !

****

in english 
Christmas ! Christmas ! Christmas !
I have a gift for Santa Claus
A beautiful present for Santa Claus
This present  is me who chose it
And I swear I put the price
He will have presents, too, it is a promise !

I have a present  for Santa Claus
The night he descends from heaven
He will see it in front of my fireplace
Well wrapped in golden paper
Judge his surprise when he knows what it is
He will have a white beard that will shudder
He will be so astonished that he will be left speechless

I have a gift for Santa Claus
A beautiful gift for Santa Claus
I will tell you what it is, friends
A guitar that makes a lot of noise
And we will play together the twist all night

He will have a white beard that will shudder
He will be so astonished that he will be left speechless
I have a gift for Santa Claus
A beautiful gift for Santa Claus
I will tell you what it is, friends
A guitar that makes a lot of noise
And we will play together the twist all night long
Go Go Father Xmas !!

Le twist du Père Noël - Les Chaussettes Noires - with Alexis and Pierrou

I am very grateful to my dear soundcloud friend Stéphane aka DDJohn (https://soundcloud.com/ddjohn) for joining me on this track. This was initially intended to be a pure guitar-vocal song but, when playing it for myself, I could feel that something was missing. I called Stéphane on rescue to add some more Parisian flavor. Once again, he put his incredibly versatile talent into operation, and delivered a beautiful performance, so merci Dédé!

Adieu Paris

Dans les balloches
Dans le fond de mes poches
Dans un dédale de rues
Dans un rêve incongru
Dans les plis de mon âme
Au fin fond de Paname
Je t’ai cherchée partout
Et puis je suis parti

Loin
Poussé par le vent
Incertain
Magnifiquement
Adieu Paris

Un vrai baltringue
Dans un costard cradingue
Affalé sur le zinc
Bras en croix de Berny
J’avais plus beaucoup d’sous
Et j’étais vraiment saoul
Peu importe le train
Pourvu qu’il parte aussi

Loin
Que souffle le vent
Incertain
Fatidiquement
Adieu Paris

Comme un voleur
Gentleman joli-coeur
J’ai laissé un bristol
Avant d’me ranger des bagnoles
Si je reviens un jour
Pour épingler l’amour
Sûr que je te dirai
Là où il se planquait

Bien
A l'abri du vent
Dans quel coin
Il était vivant
A Paris...

Alexis Roche's Album

Adieu Paris (starring Dédé Djeune)

I asked Stéphane if he would consider playing some clarinet on this little tune of mine, and he came up with this magnificent arrangement... That's the DDJohn effect! Welcome on board.

Clarinet: Stéphane (https://soundcloud.com/ddjohn)
Voice, ukulele, guitar: Alexis

Dansons!

Quand le bateau coule
Quand le monde croule
Et les cœurs sont transis

Qu’il n’y a plus d’appel
Ni terre ni ciel
Si sombre soit la nuit

Dansons, dansons
Quitte à rester debout
Happés par la foule anonyme
Eh bien trémoussons-nous

Dansons, dansons
Au milieu des remous
Seule ou lasse, faites-moi signe
Pour danser avec vous

Fi de la panade
De la débandade
Au diable les soucis

Le démon m’appelle
A entrer en selle
Et le bon Dieu aussi

Dansons...

Dansons! (with the DDJohn Clarinet Section)
