Promenons-nous Dans Les Bois

Musique © Copyright 2021 Claude Galvez & JoFa


Promenons-nous dans les bois
Pendant que le loup n'y est pas
Si le loup y était
Il nous mangerait
Mais comme il n'y est pas
Il nous mangera pas
Loup y es-tu?
Que fais-tu?
Entends-tu?
Je mets ma chemise
Promenons-nous dans les bois
Pendant que le loup n'y est pas
Si le loup y était
Il nous mangerait
Mais comme il n'y est pas
Il nous mangera pas
Loup y es-tu?
Que fais-tu?
Entends-tu?
Je mets ma culotte
Promenons-nous dans les bois
Pendant que le loup n'y est pas
Si le loup y était
Il nous mangerait
Mais comme il n'y est pas
Il nous mangera pas
Loup y es-tu?
Que fais-tu?
Entends-tu?
Je mets mes chaussettes
Promenons-nous dans les bois
Pendant que le loup n'y est pas
Si le loup y était
Il nous mangerait
Mais comme il n'y est pas
Il nous mangera pas
Loup y es-tu?
Que fais-tu?
Entends-tu?
Je mets ma veste
Je mets mes bottes
Je mets mon chapeau
Je mets mes lunettes
Je prends mon fusil
J'arrive
Vite, vite sauvons-nous
Sauvons-nous, vite, vite

Promenons-nous Dans Les Bois

Lonesome cowboy riding planes
Flying and living in the fast lanes
I spend my life on the clouds
A land where flashes are loud
My white and empty country
Don’t belong to humanity

I belong to the clouds
Surfing like an Alien 		I’m
Lost in translation

Crossing smiles and lives
Watching kisses and crimes
Promises and lies
Freedom and ties
Reaching higher and higher skies
I beg and beg to see your eyes 			but

I belong to the space	
Surfing like an Alien 		I’m
Lost in translation

Lost my pass for Friend County
Always on my way to somewhere
Saying bye, see you someday
Knowing there is no way
Wishing I could dive and shine
Like a comet bringing the brightest light 		but

I belong to the space	
Surfing like an Alien 		I’m
Lost in translation
Lost in translation
Lost in translation

Lost In Translation

Baby blue
© Lyrics : JoFa
©Music : Claude Galvez, Didier Farrugia (JoFa) , Chant : Kriszta Salat 

	Oh my baby blue
	Oh my baby be
	Be my baby blue
	I wanna be blue
	Blue with you

When I hear you
My head is like the sky
And if I see you
Like the sea - so blue
I wanna be blue

Oh my baby love
My heart is like a tree
Roots deep in you
I wanna be blue
Just like you, just like you

			I know you love him
			So strong in your body blue
			I’ll lose my leafs
			For many winters, thunders
			I’ll still be there at spring
			Waiting for you to ring


 
One spring
Maybe you’ll taste my fruits
Of thousand colors
So you’ll no longer
Feel thirst or hunger

If you want me to
Baby we’ll soon be three
Three of us so blue
So strange so new
In this red-neck world

			Live your life with him
			So strong in your body blue
			I’ll lose my leafs
			For many winters, thunders
			I’ll still be there at spring
			Waiting for you to ring

I won’t cry, won’t scream
The wind will carry my leafs
Like thousands of words 
Telling your beauty blue
No don’t feel no pity

	Oh my baby blue
	Oh my baby be
	Be my baby blue
	I wanna be blue
	Blue with you

My Baby Blue

INVISIBLES

© copyright Lyrics JoFa 2022
© copyright Music Nadsat & Jofa 2022

Je suis l’homme invisible,	on ne me voit pas
Quand je crie,			on ne m’entend pas
Je touche et			on ne me sent pas
Je suis imperceptible		invisible et 
Néanmoins sensible

Aux élections		je ne compte pas
Et pour les galas 	je n’en parle pas
Aux repas 		même pas de plat
Même mes parents	ne m’embrassent pas
Dans la vie		on ne me calcule pas

Hé toi ! La belle 	avec tes Elles
Je te vois 		et tu ne me vois pas
Je te parle 		et tu ne réponds pas
Je te touche		et tu ne me sens pas
Je pleure, je meurs 	et ça ne compte pas

Je suis l’homme invisible,	on ne me voit pas
Quand je crie,			on ne m’entend pas
Je touche et			on ne me sent pas
Je suis imperceptible		invisible et 
Néanmoins sensible

Je me crois de marbre 	et je ne suis que sable
Je me crois de glace 		et je ne suis que flaque
Je me crois de flamme 	et je ne suis que cendre
Je me crois de fer		et je ne suis que tendre
La foule me transperce	aucune ne me berce


Ni beau, ni laid		je suis sans reflet
Ni buvable, ni comestible	je suis inutile
Hé toi ! Hé toi 			tu ne me vois pas
Je marche à travers toi	et tu ne sens pas
Je te parle			et tu ne réponds pas

Je suis l’homme invisible,	on ne me voit pas
Quand je crie,			on ne m’entend pas
Je touche et			on ne me sent pas
Je suis imperceptible		invisible et 
Néanmoins sensible

Hé Vous			et Toi
Si toi aussi			t’es transparent
Si on ne te parle pas 		
Et que tous les matins	on te prend comme le train
Lève-toi 			et fait comme moi

Entame la marche		du peuple de l’ombre
Lève-toi 			et marche comme moi
Vers les Terres invisibles	que nous sommes les seuls
A croire possibles		nous les Invisibles

On crie on pleure		personne ne voit
Nous sommes invisibles	imperceptibles
Nous n’existons pas		même pour les Gnawas
nous sommes malheureux	mais Peuple de l’ombre	
Nous sommes nombreux	indivisibles

Les Ailleurs

© copyright Lyrics JoFa 2011
© copyright Music Nadsat & JoFa 2023
Vocals : JoFa


Je sais que je suis d’ailleurs
Je pars…
Affronter les Ailleurs
Et faire mienne une Terre
Ou plus vaste, une Mer

Battre tambour, 
Vainqueur de peuples étroits
Franchir les détroits et …
Bâtard semer l’effroi
Par l’amour métisser,
Limer les dents … contre soi
Vaincre le temps, vaincre le sang-pure ingrat
Nu sous les étoiles, vêtu d’un drap,
Dépouillé, va-nu-pieds,
Dévorer la langueur
Et boire la torpeur
Etranger à soi même,
Vivre ivre d’ailleurs
Et terrasser les railleurs
Qui me transpercent de leurs opinions
Mais au matin digne, ma résurrection
Tord leur aversion

Je sais que je suis d’ailleurs
Je pars…
Affronter les Ailleurs
Et faire mienne une Terre
Ou plus vaste, une Mer

Qu’ils bavent dans les mille langues
Leurs coups ont fait mon corps
Et l’amour en mon  âme est fort
Aller, marcher, tanguer, chevaucher
Se fondre, se perdre jusqu’à la fusion
Briller du vent du soleil
Je n’ai plus mangé depuis des siècles
Et je bois le bleu de la nuit
Tendre ses bras aux bras du déluge
Hisser ou plonger et dériver ensemble
S’unir en vaisseau humain
Voguer dans l’espace incertain
Tous ces chants, royaumes, montagnes,
Toutes ces batailles, vaincues par ton rêve,
Ton sourire flotte, étendard céleste,
Seul allié de mon cœur d’ailleurs
Je sais que je suis d’ailleurs

Je sais que tu es d’ailleurs
Je viens…
Aimer les Ailleurs
Et faire mienne une Terre
Ou plus vaste, une Mer

Les Ailleurs

DISTANT LOVE

Copyright Music Fading Call 2013
Copyright Lyrics JoFa 2013

Long distance love
Fades away in the waves
Long distance minds
Can’t feel no love
Can’t feel no love
Anymore
		Long distance love…
Minds with no eyes
Can’t see no sunshine
Bodies miles apart
Won’t keep up the fire
Won’t keep up the desire
		Long distance love…
Waiting for ages
For you to care
Waiting for ages
To feel your skin on my skin
To feel your skin on my skin
		Long distance love…
Too many Gods away
To believe in love
Too many lies away
To believe in truth
We were once together
We were once together… but
		Long distance love…

Distant Love

I am running in my dream
Really too scared to sleep
I need to wake up I know
I can’t be late
I am this open window

	Nine years behind the walls
	And one hour for me
I cross the many gates
And feel guilty again

I am running in my dream
You need your clean clothes
And the hidden chocolate
Hope they won’t find it
Hope they won’t find it

	Nine years behind the walls
	And one hour for me
I cross the many gates
And feel guilty again

20 minutes to breath
News, family and friends
The one that miss you, the one that hates you
The one that forgot you,
And you won’t forget

	Nine years behind the walls
	And one hour for me
I cross the many gates
And feel guilty again

You talk to me and I feel better 
When I see you kept the light
You ask me about outside
The girls and the sea,
The café and the bars

Do you remember the smell of the bakery as the sun rises
On the sea
Her long hair and funny smile,
Her soft skin and sparking eyes.

KING KONG

© Copyright Lyrics & Music JoFa 2009

Used to climb the highest mountains
I am climbing the tallest buildings
I am the enemy of mankind
They stole my kingdom
They made me a slave
Killing Mother Nature
Grinding, digging, 
With no caring, no sharing

Let me be your King
Let me be your Kong
I am out of the jungle
Never been to a city
I don’t know about pity
But I will fight for you
But I will die for you

Savage they call me
Beast they treat me
But my heart in one
One sun born for you Star
You are the one for me
You are the one from far
I will take all the risk
Just for you, tiny lady

 
Let me be your King
Let me be your Kong
I am out of the jungle
Never been to a city
I don’t know about pity
But I will fight for you
But I will die for you


We the black hairy ones
We the proud Bonobo’s
We fight till the end
My human queen
I will stand alone against the world
Will give you my last blink
Will give you my last breath

If I came here to Soho
It’s for you my princess so…
So let me keep you in my hand
Feel your skin so thin, thin
Until the end, the end
It will take a thousand bullets
To stop my heart for you to beat
Let them think I am the monster
You know who made the disaster.

King Kong

Minority 

© Copyright JoFa & Al 2021

I am the minority
I belong to humanity

I am the emergency
Loosing blood with dignity

You are the minority
Surviving to mediocrity
Telling truth to hypocrisy

Small people with big idea
Are we, are we
Are we an anomaly?

You thrive, you thrive,
You thrive for conformity
Dreaming of web and TV
Looking at me like an old three

Fading ethnies, fading species
A fading call for eternity

We are the unknown color
Sounding like a secret language

You want to turn the pages of the book
To forget the story we wrote

You all look alike an scared
So scared of diversity

You throw me out of the house
But I may have the key
But I may have the key
Harmony, harmony…

Minority

IN THE DUST

Not even an echo of myself
Not even a shadow
Try to leave a trace
A print in the sand, a light in the sky
In the dust, invisible, invisible
In the concrete jungle
Try to be a tree and leave my fruits
Just to bring my grace and fade away
That’s my story, … no glory

In the dust

THINGS IN MY HEAD

	These things in my head
	Things in my heart
	Make me sad
	Make me mad

	These things in my head
	Things in my heart
	Won’t leave me alone
	Don’t leave me alone

		Pas de joie, pas d’émoi
		Pas de peur, pas de haine
		Pas de scène, pas de ‘blem

		Pas de Dieu, pas de foi
		Pas de roi, pas de reine
		Pas de lien, pas de rennes

	I’ll be dead
	Oh...... but I’ll be free
	I’ll be free 
	once I’ll be dead
	
	Now things in my head in my heart
	Left me alone
	Everything is quite, so quite and empty 
	I must be dead

(c) Copyright Jofa 2013

Things in my head

I wanna live…..live in my world
I wanna live…..live in my world
Hear…………..the poet in every word
See……………a flower in every soul

	I know you want me to play
	I know you want me to pay
	I know you want me to fight
	I know you want me to make money
	That I don’t need anyway

		But maybe one day
		But maybe one day
		
You’ll live my way
You’ll live my way
Sharing and caring
Loving and helping

	I know you want me to lie
	You say it’s the only way
	You want me to hate
	You want me to cry
	To kill the love inside

		But maybe one day
		But maybe one day
		
You’ll live my way
You’ll live my way

In My World

WHITE SNOW
© Copyright Lyrics & music JoFa 2015

Can’t wake up today
My eyes are so closed
Such a heavy load on my chest
Such a heavy load on my legs

Oh I can see flowers
Falling from the sky
Oh I can hear the songs
And all the music of the world
Oh I can see the mountains
And the sparkling white snow
And the far deep oceans
		Nothing can wake me up today….
			Except the feel of your lips on my lips..
Can’t wake up today
It could be my last day
Such a heavy load on my head
Such a heavy load on my heart

Oh I can hear a child crying
I see a woman starving
And all the poor’s are calling
And the waterfall is screaming
And the wind is howling
And the sun is burning
And the trees are drying
		Nothing can wake me up today….
			Except the feel of your lips on my lips..

PLAY AROUND

It’s 6 in the morning
I hear the radio crying
I won't ever get up
I am still laying - sleeping
Stay here while it’s cold
And frightning outside - frightning outside
These people around are too serious
To save the planet 

	The world is round but we can’t play around - can’t play around
	Try to find another planet - another one
	Try to get out of the net
	Can’t get out of the bed 
	Can’t get out of the bed

Can’t smile today
These people around are too serious
To let me enjoy living - playing
I try to stay outside but anyway
I am in - the way (I got to pay)
These people around are too serious
To let anything grow
Except starvation and polution

The world is round but we can’t play around - can’t play around
	Try to find another planet - another one
	Try to get out of the net
	Can’t get out of the bed 
		Can’t get out of the bed

STRIPES ON THE CEILING

Stripes on the ceiling
Like my mind love and hate
Black and white - Black and white 
In this grey world

I can’t fit -  I CAN’T FIT
Shrinked suits - shrinked people
I can hear the music of heaven
Through the jail bars
I see the skies - the skies
			By the end of my days

		I will find a way – to your arms
And there –
I will lay on your silver hair
				
I will find a way – to your arms
And there –
I will lay on your silver hair
		By the end of my days

I dream solving myself
And riding on the clouds
The eternal snow is calling me
I dream licking your honey body
Princess of the Milky Way
I know that – I know
		By the end of my days

I can’t fit -  I CAN’T FIT
I can’t fit -  I CAN’T FIT
I can’t fit -  I CAN’T FIT
I can’t fit -  I CAN’T FIT

Stripes on the ceiling
Like my mind love and hate
Black and white - Black and white 
In this grey world
I can’t fit -  I CAN’T FIT - I can’t fit -  I CAN’T FIT

Shrinked suits - shrinked people
I can hear the music of heaven
Through the jail bars
I see the skies - the skies

I dream solving myself
And riding on the clouds
The eternal snow is calling me
I dream licking your honey body
Princess of the Milky Way
Princess of the Milky Way
Princess of the Milky Way
Princess of the Milky Way
I will find a way – to your arms and there
I will find a way – to your arms and there
I will find a way – to your arms and there
I will find a way – to your arms and there

Falling

© copyright Lyrics JoFa 2008

I am falling to a place nobody ever went 
I am falling and I feel no colour ever came here 
I am crying and a million times I tried to call you 
But in this place nothing ever sounded 
Right or wrong - silence 

I am falling
I can’t feel no joy and no pain
They are no words at all and I hope my feelings
will reach you my love
I am crying but my eyes are dry
I am falling and the time to be here
I am already there
The time to be me
I am already nobody
I am falling

No hell no paradise
It could be in between
Dead or alive I am wanted here
And I guess I will never stop falling
I am falling
Is there any destination
Whilesome are searching for a nation
I am dreaming about a passion
Someone to depend on
I am falling
My freedom is such a hole
My freedom is such an empty space

GIVE ME LOVE

Music by Nadsat & JoFa  & special guest on Organ Hichem Amari
Words by JoFa

I gave her all the heat I had
I gave her all the light I had
I gave her  everything I had
I gave her all the love I had

And now I starve
And now I crawl
And now I stand 
I stand alone in the dark
I stand alone in the dark

Just give me love
Just give me love
Please give me love
Love, love

You’re the Queen of vampire
Drunk all my desire
Let me dead and dry
I am dead again
I am dead again
What does it take to believe again
How many words, how many smiles
Sunrises and Moonsmiles

All the love I had
All the love
All the love

Words by JoFa

I see sheeps in the clouds
I see the sun down under
And the sea above me
And I see you 
Smiling in the sun

Am I awake ?
Am I alive ?
Why is it so dark ?
Am I awake ?
Am I still alive ?

I am me
I am me
I am…
Let me be

I can’t feel my body
I can’t feel no gravity
I can’t feel any body

Fucking latency
I can’t feel my body
I can’t feel no gravity
I can’t feel any body

Oh, oh, latency 
Please

MY TRAIN

Used to feel pain leaving the lovers station
Tears in my eyes
And now bringing them to their lovers passion
Sparks in their eyes

Last time I left you in the rain station
Sparks in your eyes 
Brought my heart to rainbow nation
Sparks in my eyes

	Don’t miss my train
	That trip won’t be vain
	Cause today The One took his ticket
	Sitting, listening Wilson Picket
	Crossing the many rivers

My train used to go straight in deep valley
Is now running in sunny alley
Used to rust on the waves of sadness
Is now heading to happiness

So fast and sad no one would step in
Peter asking “Stop the train I’m leaving”
Is now smoking, happily resting,
Quietly crossing the Death Valley

SPY ME

Music Nadsat - JoFa
Lyrics JoFa

Read the hidden pages of my life
Seek the evidences in the mist of my past
Follow the footprints in my dusty memories
Ask the witness and the gods

	Spy me as much as you love me
	And the day you’ll find me
Tell me who you see
	Tell me who you see

Don’t think you know the truth
Go on and follow the track
Look for the secret part of me
In my smiles or in my tears

	Spy me as much as you love me
	And the day you’ll find me
Tell me who you see
	Tell me who you see

Fight your fear, fight your dreams
If you wanna make sure you love me
You’ll have to find me
I won’t help, I can’t help

Spy me as much as you love me
	And the day you’ll find me
Tell me who you see
	Tell me who you see

LOSING MY COLOR

Lyrics joFa

I am losing my color	my hot dark red
I am almost blue	I am almost dead
Mixed up feelings 	and all is grey
I am losing my brain   but I 	am keeping my pain

	Hope I’ll keep my voice 		until I die
	God help me keep my voice  	to sing away my tears
	God help me keep my voice 	until I am dry
	Dont wanna lose the blues
	Dont wanna lose the blues
	But all is grey

I am losing my color	my hot dark red
Where is the green	where is the hole
Losing my color	and all is grey
I am losing my white but I 	am keeping my black

	Hope I’ll keep my voice 		until I die
	God help me keep my voice  	to sing away my tears
	God help me keep my voice 	until I am dead
	Dont wanna lose the blues
			Dont wanna lose the blues
			But all is grey

I am losing my color	my hot dark red
I am almost blue	I am almost dead
Dont wanna lose the blues 	but all is grey
I am losing my light but I 	am keeping my pride

	Hope I’ll keep my voice 		until I die
	God help me keep my voice  	to sing away my tears
God help me keep my voice 	until I am dead
Dont wanna lose the blues
Dont wanna lose the blues
But all is grey

Lyrics JoFa

While people are sleeping
Lost souls are drinking
Lost souls are singing
Lost souls are sinking
Lost souls 		are laughing
But Lost souls	are loving   

Black cat is howling
In the heart of the night
People are dreaming
Lost souls are drinking

While people are sleeping
Lost souls are drinking
In the smoke of the night
Lost souls are floating
While people are dreaming
Lost souls are floating
In the dark of the night
In the dark of the night

Lost souls are drinking
Lost souls are swearing
Lost souls are dying
But Lost souls	are loving
In the end of the night
In the dark of the night

Lyrics © Copyright 2018 JoFa

When you are looking in my eyes
You see the guns
When I am looking in your eyes 
I see the guns

You know, you know, you can’t trust me
And me either

When you are looking at my colts
You see the smoke
So now you know I can use them
How many shots I did
I can see the count in your eyes

	We are standing still
Trying to make these seconds
An eternity
A space of peace

But you know you can’t trust me
And me either
Although I see tears in your eyes
You’d rather see me lay on the ground
And me either

	Staring at each other
	This fear ties us
Together
I wish we could be in peace
Together

If we could, if we could
We can’t
Look at this fear 
Look at this fear
We won’t overcome

Love me tender
Till the summer
Under the summer sky
Only stars
Get out the fear

Love me tender
Till the summer
Under the summer sky
Only stars
Let me keep you in my arms
Ohhh 
Give me shelter

My sweet Flower 
Today I am like a ghost
Floating in the air
Seeing the lovers pair
Waiting for someone’s care
The one on this earth
Seeing all my worth
Feeling all my worth

So high I cry
So high in the sky
My tears making clouds
My cries so louds
Like lightning and thunder
When I wonder
Why are the many borders?
For that long search
I have no sorrow
For that rainbow
And you throw the arrow
In my heart so sweet

In this grey world

I can’t fit -  I CAN’T FIT
Shrink suits - shrink people
I can hear the music of heaven
Through the jail bars
I see the skies - the skies

		I will find a way – to your arms
And there –
I will lay on your silver hair
				
I will find a way – to your arms
And there –
I will lay on your silver hair

I dream solving myself
And riding on the clouds
The eternal snow is calling me
I dream licking your honey body
Princess of the Milky Way
I know that – I know

Down there everything looks set
All is in the net
Threatening bullet
War, disease you can get
Everything is weighting
Everyone is waiting
So many crying
So many dying

		So I am …
Just above the clouds
Jumping, feeling
That I am flying
Floating in a jet
Over the planet

Some are working
Some are starving
Some are building
Some are breaking

I should take my part - you say
It’s no time to play
But I can’t carry that much
And I don’t wanna touch
The ground anyway

So I am …
Just above the clouds
Jumping, feeling
That I am flying
Floating in a jet
Over the planet

Over The Planet

DOCTOR

Lyrics © Copyright JoFa 2020

 All the pain of the world
In their body        
All the pain of the world
In my body
 
Please, please make this disease
Leave and let them live
Please, please make this disease
Leave and let me live
 
Run, run, run run……………..
On the track of the one Doctor
Able to heal the world
On the track of the one Warrior
Able to bring the peace

All the pain of the world
In them bloody    
All the pain of the world
In me bloody

Doctor

NEVER
Lyrics Copyright © JoFa 2020
Music Copyright © Fading Call

	I never thought that my life 
	Will be like this
		So full of dirt 
		So full of dust
		So full of aches 
		No no no no I never thought

	I never thought that my life 
	Will be like this
		Not even a piece of rainbow
		Not even a piece of sunshine
		Just rain  and storm
		Not even a nice girl	Not even once

			But then someday
			One bright day
			Someone switched the light on
			I saw her eyes
			I felt her near me
			And I knew, and I knew, and I knew….
it was love (comin’)..........

Never

SOIF DE DESERT

Lyrics Copyright © JoFa 2020
Music Copyright © Fading Call

Boire le Désert 
Eteindre les feux de mon coeur

Boire ta sécheresse 
Pour étancher mes larmes
	
Boire le Désert - et
Donner une raison aux brûlures de mon corps

	Soif de désert
	Soif de désert
	Soif de désert

	Dune et dune et d'une
	Dune et dune et d'une
	Dune et dune et d'une
	Ne penser à aucune

Et comme le vent 
Sculpter des roses et faire l'amour
A la déesse aux mille mamelles

Voir le désert
Fermer les yeux et quand même voir 
Que tout est lumière

	Soif de désert
	Soif de désert
	Soif de désert

	Dune et dune et d'une
	Dune et dune et d'une
	Dune et dune et d'une
	Ne penser à aucune

Croire le désert
Et comme le nomade
Prendre, prendre le mouvement 
Dans le grand, le grand sablier 
Le temps, le temps, lave les pensées
Million, million de millions... 
De grains d'humilité
Plus grands, plus grands...
Que la plus grande des idées.

Soif De Désert

STRIPES ON THE CEILING
© Fading Call
Music Daly Gana & JoFa
Voices : Daly Gana & JoFa
Lyrics : JoFa

Stripes on the ceiling
Like my mind love and hate
Black and white - Black and white 
In this grey world

I can’t fit -  I CAN’T FIT
Shrink suits - shrink people
I can hear the music of heaven
Through the jail bars
I see the skies - the skies
			By the end of my days

		I will find a way – to your arms
And there –
I will lay on your silver hair
				
I will find a way – to your arms
And there –
I will lay on your silver hair
		By the end of my days

I dream solving myself
And riding on the clouds
The eternal snow is calling me
I dream licking your honey body
Princess of the Milky Way
I know that – I know
		By the end of my days

I can’t fit -  I CAN’T FIT
I can’t fit -  I CAN’T FIT
I can’t fit -  I CAN’T FIT
I can’t fit -  I CAN’T FIT

Stripes on the ceiling
Like my mind love and hate
Black and white - Black and white 
In this grey world
I can’t fit -  I CAN’T FIT - I can’t fit -  I CAN’T FIT

Shrink suits - shrink people
I can hear the music of heaven
Through the jail bars
I see the skies - the skies

I dream solving myself
And riding on the clouds
The eternal snow is calling me
I dream licking your honey body
Princess of the Milky Way
Princess of the Milky Way
Princess of the Milky Way
Princess of the Milky Way
I will find a way – to your arms and there
I will find a way – to your arms and there
I will find a way – to your arms and there

Here are a few comments that some listener left us : 

« Fantastic world vibe, so smooth »

FADING CALL
De la sagesse comme les statues détruites, les peuples et les espèces disparues, nous n’entendons plus l’appel. Un collectif qui use du son comme un lien : l’humanité, par delà les cultures, langues, territoires et religions. Le son du partage, une halte, une nuit, une heure, un vrai regard posé sur l’autre et… des bras qui nous serrent.

Mohamed KANNOU aka Nadsat
Tunisie
Composition, guitare, percussions, batterie.
Architecte mais aussi architecte du son, amoureux de son pays et particulièrement des iles Kerkennah d’où il est originaire : seul endroit au monde où les hommes possèdent une parcelle de mer. DJ, compositeur, indépendant et sensible…

Alexandre DELMAS aka Al
France/Iran
Composition, guitare, claviers.
Grand, imposant, et pourtant discret, sa stature ne fait qu’accentuer la force de ses arrangements. Iranien par sa mère, il grandit en France où il fait une école de cinéma.

Joseph FARRUGIA aka Jofa
France/Tunisie

Survivre à la noirceur de l’humanité, par l’écriture et la musique. Voir un poète en chaque mot et la fleur en chaque âme.
