In a book and several widely read newspaper articles, the English journalist David Goodhart has identified a new cause for the vicious populism of our time. Le Pen, Brexit, Trump, the online hate culture - according to Goodhart, two new "meta-classes" (the "Anywheres" and the "Somewheres") have emerged in the global world, two completely different ways of living and feeling. According to Goodhart, these separate cultures are now competing against each other in a kind of new world culture war.

Somewhere, 3:33 am


Anyone awake again…? 
Now, 3:33 am…?

I was just looking… 
I was gazing…
I was just listening,
I was wondering…

Is it change that drives, 
Challenges and brings life, 
Even if failures are included?

Or is transformation 
A constant calculation 
Of loss, a humiliation?

And I was just looking… 
I was gazing…
I was just listening,
I was wondering…

You were somewhere, out there
You were not anywhere, no

Is it change that drives, 
Challenges and brings life, 
Even if failures are included?

Or is transformation 
A constant calculation 
Of loss, a humiliation?

I was just looking… 
And I was gazing
I was just freezing
While I was listening
And I was just looking
(For an answer
Of any kind)

You sang somewhere, out there
You were no anywhere, no
You were a somewhere, out there
You were not anywhere
Anywhere, anywhere, anywhere
(To find)

Somewhere, 3:33 am

Je sors..
Texte : Sanzen 
Chant : Julia 
Musique : Alain Illos

La nuit comme un écrin,
lendemains juvéniles.
Des lumières se devinent,
j'irai ce soir en ville.
Je sors ce soir,
retrouver ma jeunesse,
les regards qui scintillent,
ma nuit adolescente.
Je sors ce soir, en ville,
pour une célébration,
je sors me réjouir,
le brio dans leurs yeux.
Gardez moi du déclin,
lendemains juvéniles.
Je sors me réjouir,
les lumières de la ville.
Ce soir, adolescent,
ce soir, reconnaissant.
Pour ce qui est à venir,
mon coeur juvénile.
La nuit est un écrin,
les lumières,
les lendemains...

I leave

The night as a jewel box,
youthful tomorrows.
Lights can be seen,
I'm going into town tonight.
I'm going out tonight,
back to my youth,
glittering eyes,
my teenage night.
I'm going out tonight
for a celebration,
I'm going out to rejoice,
the brio in their eyes.
Save me from decline,
youthful tomorrows.
I go out to rejoice,
the lights of the city.
Tonight, adolescent,
tonight, grateful.
For what's to come,
my youthful heart.
The night is a jewel box,
lights,
the tomorrows...

Je Sors.... ( avec Julia )   translated after the French text

LYRIC
The nights bewilder
The days confuse
You know it’s better
To love and lose 
That’s what they tell you 
But look a gain 
I think they say it with a grin

Tell me who’s fooled
Who must be schooled 
In the ways of this world
Tell me who’s fooled

You know the fables
You’ve heard the tales
Of clever foxes
And vengeful whales 
Rebellious children 
Who misbehaved
If they’d only listened
They might have been saved 

Tell me who’s fooled
Who would be ruled
By the ways of this world
Tell me who’s fooled

 If it isn’t  me
And it’s not you 
Then exactly who am I talking to?
Is it you, God?
Could you at least maybe nod?

The sun is broiling
The seas enraged
And some will tell you
It’s all been staged
Let’s chase the playwright 
Right out of town
Time to bring the curtain down

Tell me who’s fooled
A heart not yet cooled 
By the world and its ways
By bad nights and worse days
At the risk of being rude
Tell me who’s fooled


Who's Fooled?
