Here are the lyrics to their song, along with an English translation that may or may not be completely accurate.

Je n'irai pas ailleurs

je n'irai pas plus loin
Et lacher le bonheur
qui est entre mes mains
Je rêve pas d'une vie
que je ne vivrai pas
Mon histoire est ici,
il est de toi et moi, de toi et moi


N'est pas peur du futur,
qui risque rien n'a rien
La vie une aventure,
coup de coeur, coup de poing
N'est plus peur du danger
n'attend pas l'autre jour
À ceux qui on truqué
les jeux qu'ils veulent qu'ont jouent
Et même s'ils disent que j'ai tort
Que les rêves sont morts
Moi j'en demande encore
Pour seulement vivre plus fort et encore
Et plus fort même trop fort
J'ai dit à mon passé
laisse moi vivre demain
Si je dois m'envoler
surtout n'empêche rien
Je brûle mon présent
seulement pour exister
La vie ça paye comptant
j'en mettrai pas de coté
Je n'irai pas ailleurs,
je n'irai pas plus loin
Et lâcher le bonheur
qui est entre mes mains
Je brûle mon présent
seulement pour exister
La vie ça paye comptant
j'en mettrai pas de coté
Je n'irai pas ailleurs,
je n'irai pas plus loin
Et lâcher le bonheur
qui est entre mes mains
Je brûle mon présent
seulement pour exister
La vie ça paye comptant
j'en mettrai pas de coté
Je n'irai pas ailleurs,
je n'irai pas plus loin
Et lâcher le bonheur
qui est entre mes mains
Je brûle mon présent
seulement pour exister
La vie ça paye comptant
j'en mettrai pas de coté

I will not go elsewhere

I will not go further
And let go of happiness
who is in my hands
I don't dream of a life
that I will not live
My story is here
it is from you and me, from you and me


Is not afraid of the future,
who risks nothing has nothing
Life is an adventure,
blow of heart, punch
No longer afraid of danger
don't wait the other day
To those who rigged
the games they want to play
And even though they say I'm wrong
That dreams are dead
I still ask
To only live harder and still
And stronger even too strong
I told my past
let me live tomorrow
If I have to fly away
above all do not prevent anything
I burn my present
only to exist
Life pays cash
I will not put it aside
I will not go elsewhere,
I will not go further
And let go of happiness
who is in my hands
I burn my present
only to exist
Life pays cash
I will not put it aside
I will not go elsewhere,
I will not go further
And let go of happiness
who is in my hands
I burn my present
only to exist
Life pays cash
I will not put it aside
I will not go elsewhere,
I will not go further
And let go of happiness
who is in my hands
I burn my present
only to exist
Life pays cash
I will not put it aside




Another singer worth mentioning is Garou who is Canadian, but now is huge in France.

That is such a great song. I looked at the lyrics and they don't seem to lead you to understand why they sing this song with so much passion. There must be more to it that the lyrics can't convey by themselves.

As far as Garou, another Canadian whose a legend in France, but he did rat me out once during a Les enfoires performance. Check out post #144 here....http://alizeeamerica.com/forums/show...=garou&page=15
