Il y a - Vanessa Paradis, Version Quentin Frero Delavega (Cover)

Juste quelqu'un de bien (Deux, 1994)

***RIP to a beautiful songsmith and poet. May his songs ring on through the universe forever*

Okay this is the last cover I will probably record for a good few years now- needed to get this recorded purely because it is one of the most beautiful songs ever written. My eyes are covering his because I wanted to represent my interpretation of the song through his eyes, rather than my own.

I thank my dad for introducing me to this. Thanks Dad x x x

Carla Bruni’s fourth album, Little French Songs, will be released on April 16th 2013 via Verve Records. The first single from the album, “Chez Keith et Anita,” will be released digitally in the US on February 26th.  PRESS HERE to stream the song now. Little French Songs, written and performed in French, English and Italian, is the follow up to Carla’s 2008 critically acclaimed Comme si de rien n’etait (As if Nothing Had Happened) which debuted at #1 in both the Billboard European Top 100 Albums Charts and the French Album Charts. Bruni’s touch is immediately apparent in these new compositions that once again focus on raw emotions and love.
 
Little French Songs was recorded by Bénédicte Schmitt at Labomatic Studios in Paris and it features eight original compositions by Carla Bruni. Album track, “Priere” was co-written by Carla and longtime friend and collaborator Julien Clerc.“Dolce Francia” is an Italian adaptation of Charles Trenet’s “Douce France” and “Valse Posthume” is written by Chopin, with lyrics written by Carla Bruni.  
 
Carla Bruni has been writing and performing music since 1997. In the late 1990s, Bruni changed direction when she decided to launch a music career, first as a songwriter for Julien Clerc, for whom she wrote several songs for his album Si j’étais elle (If I Were Her), then as a singer-songwriter-for her first album, Quelqu’un m’a dit (Someone Told Me), released in 2002. Composed with the help of Louis Bertignac, who also produced the album, Quelqu’un m’a dit was an instant hit. Acclaimed by critics, the album sold two million copies. In 2003, Bruni won the Prix Raoul Breton, awarded by SACEM (French association of songwriters and composers) to recognize and encourage an up-and-coming songwriter or composer. She was awarded the Victoire de la Musique for Best Female Artist the same year. In  January 2007, Bruni released her second album, No Promises, which set English poems to music. Among the poets she selected were Yeats, Auden, Emily Dickinson, Christina Rossetti, Walter de la Mare and Dorothy Parker. This second work, which sold more than 400,000 copies worldwide, shot to the top of the charts in both France and Europe. Her third album was released 2008 and was entitled Comme si de rien n’était (As If Nothing Happened), the title of a photographic work by her brother Virginio Bruni Tedeschi that appears in the album’s booklet.
 
In April 2009, she launched the Fondation Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, to promote access to culture and knowledge for all. http://www.carlabrunisarkozy.org/fr/fondation-carla-bruni-sarkozy/

Two jumps in a week
I bet you think that's pretty clever, don't you boy?
Flying on your motorcycle
Watching all the ground beneath you drop

Kill yourself for recognition
Kill yourself to never ever stop
You broke another mirror
You're turning into something you are not

Don't leave me high
Don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high
Don't leave me dry

Drying up in conversation
You will be the one who cannot talk
All your insides fall to pieces
You just sit there wishing you could still make love

They're the ones who'll hate you
When you think you've got the world all sussed out
They're the once who'll spit at you
You'll be the one screaming out

Don't leave me high
Don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high
Don't leave me dry

Oh, it's the best thing that you ever had
The best thing you ever, ever had
It's the best thing that you ever had
The best thing you have had is gone away

Don't leave me high
Don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high
Don't leave me dry
