New song in french "L'amour fait ce qu'il veut"

 

 

L'amour fait ce qu'il veut

 

J’étais bien avant qu’il vienne
Coller sa main dans la mienne
Il m’a eu comme un bleu
L’amour fait ce qu’il veut
 
Le voilà qui veut ma peau
Qui me tatoue dans le dos
Des serpents, des cœurs en feu
L’amour fait ce qu’il veut
 
Pour ce salaud,
Je fais le tour de la Terre jusqu’au Congo
Je m’enfuis dans le désert du Sahara
Tout en haut du sommet de l’Himalaya
Sur la lune, à Cuba
Mais l’amour fait ce qu’il veut
Fait ce qu’il veut de moi
 
L’amour la la l’amour
L’amour la la l’amour
 
Mais l’amour, baby blue
Fait ce qu’il veut de nous
 
L’amour la la l’amour
L’amour la la l’amour
 
Tout le monde se fout de moi,
Quand je lui tombe dans les bras,
Il me tient comme un morveux
L’amour fait ce qu’il veut
 
Je le flingue, je l’humilie
Je le fous hors de ma vie
Je le torture tant que je peux
L’amour fait toujours mieux
 
Pour ce salaud,
Je fais le tour de la Terre jusqu’au Congo
Je m’enfuis dans le désert du Sahara
Tout en haut du sommet de l’Himalaya
Sur la lune, à Cuba
Mais l’amour fait ce qu’il veut
Fait ce qu’il veut de moi
 
L’amour la la l’amour
L’amour la la l’amour
 
Mais l’amour, baby blue
Il fait ce qu’il veut de nous
 
L’amour la la l’amour
L’amour la la l’amour
 
L’amour la la l’amour
L’amour la la l’amour
 
L’amour la la l’amour
L’amour la la l’amour
 
Mais l’amour fait ce qu’il veut
Il fait ce qu’il veut de moi
 
L’amour la la l’amour
L’amour la la l’amour
 
Mais l’amour, baby blue
Il fait ce qu’il veut de nous
 
L’amour la la l’amour
L’amour la la l’amour

 

Love does what it wants

I was fine until it/he/she came
And stuck its/ his/her hand in  mine
It caught me as a newbie
Oh love does what it wants

Here it is into my skin
Tatooing on my back
Snakes, hearts on fire
Love does what it wants

For this b**** I went around the world
As far as Congo I flee to Sahara desert
While climbing Himalaya mountains
On the moon in Cuba

But love does what it wants
It does what it wants with me/to me

But love, baby blue
Does what it wants with us/to us

oh love does what it wants
It does what it wants with me/to me

 

Thanks, crazyaboutmika for the lyrics and translation!

I liked the song a lot. The more uptempo part reminds me of China Boy.

 

Reminds? It's exactly the same melody in that part. :naughty: #recycling

Dunno yet what to think of the song. I like acoustic piano songs, but guess the recorded version might be different. I'll wait for the album to decide. ;)

Lyrics and translation anyone? :wink2:

Lyrics (draft)

L'amour fait ce qu'il veut

J'étais bien qu'il vienne
Coller sa main dans la mienne
Il m'a eu comme un bleu
Oh l'amour fait ce qu'il veut

Le voilà qui veut ma peau
Qui me tatoue dans le dos
Des serpents, des coeurs en feu
L'amour fait ce qu'il veut

Pour ce salaud j'ai fait le tour de la terre
Jusqu'au Congo je m'enfuis dans le désert du Sahara
Tout en gravissant les monts d'Himalaya
Sur la lune à Cuba

Mais l'amour fait ce qu'il veut
Il fait ce qu'il veut de moi

Mais l'amour, baby blue
Fait ce qu'il veut de nous

oh l'amour fait ce qu'il veut
Il fait ce qu'il veut de moi

I wanted it to sound not so direct  :teehee:  But yeah... the same melody... I love that part of China Boy btw, so it's not a bad thing.

(I don't know if that's  it for love or he for someone-could be her as well so :dunno: )

.L'amour is masculine in French...and has no gender in English of course, so .. I guess it is better for a translation, then if love has hands , love has a gender as well, right? So I gave the choice of it/he/her for the translation...I would tend to use he, but that should be asked to Mika I guess ...

Dunno what to think about the song...nothing to do with "Comme un soleil mal luné" and the china boy part...recycling or he had lack of inspiration? anyway I need to hear the recorded version.

I find it extremely moving and Mikaish.I love the way China Boy reappeared :naughty: and the double meaning of the words as love on a tatoo into your skin as you "have someone in your skin" meaning eternal love that never goes away and how love makes you do crazy things :naughty:

I also had in mind the little clip with Mika's back with moving tatooes (was it korean?)

The recycling of China Boy isn't the most creative thing to do. Still I personally don't think it's too bad because I love this mellody, one of my favorite Mika-mellodies, I never understood why he didn't include it into Celebrate studio version, so I'm happy that we'll get in in a recorded track in a different way now.

Me upon hearing it: "Ohh it sounds beautiful... Hold on that's one of his melodies... IT'S CHINA BOY!"  I love it though, although for some reason I would have preferred if it were in English (and I usually don't think that with his French songs). Can't wait to hear what the album version sounds like!
