Le Monde

well what i can honestly say about this luscious track that has me spellbound & somewhat intoxicated at the moment?

i accidentally stumbled on it via a model's website - it was the perfect background accompaniment to fit his persona and image .. but the song being french really drew me in (being the connoiseur that i am in music) - lol ..

i had to enlist the help of my french cousin who is also a musician & artist amongst other things to find the artist - we decided it was one of those deep philanthropic soulful grooves ..

anyway, how surprised was i to find out that the song was actually by thievery corporation .. my cousin's attempt to decipher the lyrics for me led me to googling the translation .. and shocking of me not to know my french as well as i should since my birth certificate is in french & half my family on my dad's side live there!

but here are the lyrics to 'le monde' in french ;)

Je pense bien que le monde est calculé
Je pense bien que tout est encadré
Que nos pensées sont tracées dans l'air auparavant
Et tu crois que la derniere prise
Elle a mis du temps à ta douleur
Ouvre les yeux le monde change
Ah oui je sais qu'un jour
Ah oui je sais qu'un jour
Pour voir plus clair
Tu dois oublier tous les mensonges
Ah le monde change, le monde change
Soulage ton coeur, soulage ton ame
Ah le monde change
Et tu crois que la derniere prise
Elle a mis du temps à ta douleur
Ta douleur, ta douleur
Demain est une autre sortie
Ca fait mal à dire mais j'ai peur, j'ai peur, j'ai peur
Ah le monde change, le monde change
Soulage ton coeur, soulage ton âme
Ah le monde change, le monde change
