One Too (intro Cielo Drive​)​, live in Paris (2020)

about

"I fell asleep today as if a terrible thing could happen, a better one too"

These two songs are about the transition from adolescence to adulthood, but in quite different contexts. One wallows in darkness and depression for no apparent reason, while the other tries to erase the grief of a really bad moment in time. Both were composed on the piano, one was eventually magnified by our friend Alexandre Saada, the other became an unsuccessful attempt at a synthpop anthem. We had the idea of ​​merging them a few weeks before this concert on March 6, 2020, in this period of "purgatory" when no one (or almost) knew what was going to fall on all of us. Three years, hundreds of songs and dozens of clips later, the memory of this evening seems terribly vague to us, a testimony to the prehistory of the group. We have great difficulty recognizing ourselves in these images and remembering who we were then. As if asleep, anxious that something horrible might happen to us, not knowing that the best was yet to come. Like always.

A usual, a repeated and profound thank you to Maxime Lauret for this sublime new edit and for all the love he has given us for all these years and that we are painfully trying to give back to him. Exactly the same for Nicolas Defeudis (recording, mixing & love), Kim Peacock (lights), Nathan Stibbe (drums) and all those who were present that evening.

An extra special thought (for various reasons) to Julie Falzon & Iséo Furudoï

Love,

Amélie, Billy & Pauline
