@colorsmadeoftears Do you mean the translation in the English version? I find the English one to be annoying as well. I wish that he had wrote the whole song in French.
@faithbaudelaire Actually he only wrote the english version. The french version he had "adapted", rather than accurately translated, by Virginie Despentes, if I remember correctly. Molko's french ain't that good. The french version sounds overly emotional and dark, kinda grandiloquent poetry written by an arrogant goth kid to me. Somehow the english version sounds more pragmatic, realistic and plain to me. Maybe it's the effect languages have on me. Or Molko's half good accent.
@kickrocksscrub fFench is my mother tongue, so I know he's supposed to be bilingual. He can speak french alright, in interviews and that. I just find his accent / flow a little weird. Interestingly he had someone else translate the song...
@timauthe I mean, it might not be the language he's used the most throughout his life, but he's definitely fluent... and about the song translation, it isn't that easy to translate it and make it fit into the music!
Perdu le rêve de s'aimer, il nous reste toute une vie pour pleurer... So beautiful and bitter at the same time. How can you like something that doesn't make you feel good but actually disturb you? That's Placebo.
@mysoxlike2party well placebo are not french...they are british...i agree with you about kyo..they are awesome...u should search for an othen band named noir desir...they are french too...
hmmm i don't speek french at all....but i LUV this version =D my accents pretty decent wish i new some words now though cause this is way to fast 4 me to keep up =/
the french version is no doubt very powerful.
