M83 - Raconte - Moi Une Histoire

[Soviless99]

Ugh. Little girl talking is like your mind as a child, full of magic and with the interpretation of the entire world around shrouded in mystery...

[OBLIVIOUSavior]

My reaction to this song was to remember how innocent and pure little kids are. the pure imagination and sense of humor that they have. I think drugs are quite the antithesis to childlike love and joy, which is what this world needs more of. you won't get that by handing out sheets of acid to everyone.

drugs are what we need less of. there's so much joy and excitement to be had just by observing nature and getting out into the world with friends. you don't need a dealer for that.

[aussieemooree]

i want to be a frog with you.

[djustinblake]

This song makes my heart skip. the message of unity is told through the vessel of a child whose experience with hallucinating is as pure and innocent. if we all open our selves tho learning something about our entheogenic hallucinatory responses, this is the description of the world we would be living in. A truly powerful song.

[MrOcskai]

You guys aren't very deep.. sure, the song may be about drugs, but it's also about world peace and unity. "Crossing the rivers and oceans" basically means taking down the borders of countries to live as one. "Jumping" is basically another way of describing how happy we would feel. The whole reason that it's a little girl reciting these lyrics is to make it seem innocent, like a fairytale.

Anyone else find this song, get inspired to do acid whilst listening to this song?

[satorarepoten]

so much love

"The biggest group of friends the world has ever seen" :')

[akaBruceBanner]

Colorado River Toad. ;)

[elle3337]

oh my how precious. 

[hellokitty12061]

is this frog laced with LSD by any chance?

[ninabobbina]

So uhh, where exactly do I find this frog? haha

[z3p3l1n]

I thought this song was about psychedelics. Laughing and laughing and laughing? Check. World changes forever? Check. Vision changes? Check. Nothing is ever quite the same? Check. The idea that we can be the biggest group of friends the world has ever seen? Check. I pretty much lived this song... but then reality hit. Now, ask yourself, what does this girl and people like John Lennon have in common?

[jmarmario1]

@z3p3l1n I was thinking the same exact thing, that it was about a drug, until referenced john lennon. Awesome!

[MeticulousCircumlocu]

@z3p3l1n they're dead?

[ihavemoccasins]

@z3p3l1n The trip makes them feel like a kid I think. and the title is "tell me a story" in french. I think they used a kid to show the innocence of it and the story like properties of it. I think this is just funny that they wrote a song like this. i like it though!

[EELZBEATZ]

@ihavemoccasins I think that the child is the lead singer of M83's child. Cute

[wtfozlolzrawrx3]

:)

[bandero555]

This song is truly amazing. I forget how we were all so innocent at some point in our lives. There is no song more sweet and loving than this one. Even ask pedobear.

[xLordOfTheFliesx]

Tears.

[EyeHeartLA]

*story

[EyeHeartLA]

While listening to this song, I thought of making a movie... Something that screams Inception & the Never Ending Stort.

[ssxdreams]

If you play this song in a music player and on youtube at the same time, and manage to get one to play between the beats of the other, it sounds great! :D

[KitPesarchick]

@ssxdreams amassing tip

[jmarmario1]

@ssxdreams It gives it a echo ^_^.. i like it

[TheMelloyello23]

Honestly, the first time I heard this it just broke my heart. It's a cute song, but it makes you wonder if the world can ever become united, even if it's done through the transformation of everyone into frogs. Will we ever be able to all become friends?

[lorduthor]

@TheMelloyello23 haha you think a kid on lsd is funny.

[Ey3shi3ld]

I just imagine this music with Randy Marsh in south park :Balls cancer episode

Would be so fucking funny to see randy and his friends jumping on their balls

[Kingopersia]

instead of telling my son bedtime stories, I'll just play this song

[Kukainis]

@Kingopersia

instead of playing this song, give him this frog to lick. Although you can play the song in the background. (and remember, you will become his mommy...) 

[Aulrin462]

this song it audio equivelant of a perfect shroom high. Everything is beautiful. pure innocence. I hope (if there is a heaven) that it is as beautiful as this song sounds. Love this song!!!

[BarneyIsWithUs]

and ya mommy....becomes ya daddy!!

[charracandulito]

Great Bands are everywhere, M83 (France) is an excelent example of the good music that is being created all over the world, Not only in the UK or USA, there are great bands like Kashmir (Denmark), Supercar (Japan), Zoe (Mexico), just to mention some, that are creating excellent music. M83 albums are wonderful (all of them), this last album great as well and this is my favorite song of it. cheers

[R0BEAR84]

Everything looks like a giant cupcake!

Fantastic.

[EELZBEATZ]

@R0BEAR84 We keep laughing and laughing

[Swayfun01]

The rhythm is reminiscent of a frog hopping along at steady pace on a perfect spring day...did I really just say that. Oh well, its true.

[evanfrozen]

Does somebody knows who is the girl singing/talking/narrating

[harmonia192]

@evanfrozen

she's the daughter of Justin Meldal-Johnsen, producer of M83's album hurry up, we're dreaming and friend of Anthony Gonzales

[Terminatification]

this song makes me realllyyyyyy happy

[MisterSnig]

This sounds like Brodyquest on acid.

Well, Brodyquest on MORE acid.

[adinasiatat]

is this about a brilliant acid trip?

[hippotoast]

@adinasiatat thought that at first

[sinkingshriek]

@adinasiatat Some species of frog are known to give you just that.

[tschuste2]

@adinasiatat Drugs in general IMO

[bembaharem]

Quisiera tener una hija con esa vocesita tan bella.

[TheRzmaulana]

i want a frog now.
