#l'oiseau et l'enfant

[iztea]

Sooo you said you drew a black sun symbol in your drawings to represent Dazai and a star for Chuuya, right? It kinda reminded of that one French song, L'oiseau et l'enfant (The Bird and The Child) because at one point the lyrics say smth like "I'm just a child of darkness, Who sees the Star shine at night, Oh you my Star that weaves my ring, Come and light up my black Sun" and the song is just sooo beautiful overall and I just wanted to recommened it to you TuT Older French songs have the same vibe in general :D They have the most non-sensical yet poetic lyrics that seem to be written by a drunk man slapped onto the most beautiful melodies ever (imo at least) and I thought, considering your artstyle, it might bring you some inspiration :0000 I haven't slept in three days and idk what I'm saying probably but yeaaaaah if you are interested, I'd recommend :

- Vanessa Paradis -> plsss listen to Il y a and Divine Idylle

- Tryo -> Désolé pour hier soir, Toi et moi

- Noir Désir -> Le vent nous portera, Comme elle vient

- Renaud -> Manhattan-Kaboul, Dès que le vent soufflera, Mistral Gagnant

- Louise Attaque -> J't'emmène au vent

- JJG -> Je te donne, Quand la musique est bonne

- Céline Dion (well I'm sure yk her already but...) -> Destin

- Olivia Ruiz -> J'traine des pieds, La femme chocolat

- Indochine -> J'ai demande à la lune, L'aventurier

And if you're really really interested, there are some classics like Les lacs du Connemara by Sardou or Les démons de minuit by Images or Santiano by Aufray or Macia Baïla by Rita Mitsouko.... or anything by KIDS UNITED (they made covers of famous songs so it's easier to get more exposure through them :D) or Jenifer or Zazie or maybe even La Compagnie Créole, Mozart Opéra Rock or Le Rouge et le Noir. There's also Indila but she's already pretty popular because of Tik Tok so yeah....

(did I just want an excuse to yap about French music? yeah probably, but I really hope you enjoy it TuT sorry you had to read through of all this lmao ToTTTT)

anon, you move like a kpoppie but for french music 😭 you're an Fpopper... a Fropper.. froppie?

jk jk ofc, thank you for the song recs! i do actually like to listen to french music (albeit mostly old vibey opera(?) music) i've given the first one a listen and i love it! Maybe this is my que to learn the language better through the lyrics so i can rizz up Clorinde Genshin impact haha.. i only know Indila from your list bc she had that hit in like 2013 that took over the world (rightfully so, it's banger) so i'm very excited to give the others a listen and maybe find some art inspo like u mentioned! thanks again smooch ♡◇♡

L'insouciance de l'enfance

Intimité familiale 3

GIOVANNI ARSENE KUATE TAKAM 22007100

Sur la grande place animée du centre commercial Les Flanades à Sarcelles, une scène pleine de vie et d'innocence se déroule sous mes yeux. Un petit garçon, le visage illuminé par un sourire radieux, court librement, son manteau à la main.

Ses pas légers et enthousiastes le mènent à la poursuite d'un pigeon qui vient de prendre son envol. Les ailes déployées, l'oiseau semble défier l'enfant dans une course effrénée, ajoutant à la magie de l'instant.

Le regard pétillant du bambin trahit son émerveillement face à ce spectacle improvisé. Chaque battement d'ailes du volatile semble attiser sa curiosité et son désir de jouer, de découvrir le monde qui l'entoure.

Dans cette course folle, il n'y a ni contrainte ni souci. Juste la pure joie de vivre, l'insouciance propre à l'enfance. Un moment suspendu dans le temps, où seul compte l'instant présent.

Autour de lui, la vie grouillante du centre commercial poursuit son cours, mais rien ne semble pouvoir entamer son bonheur. C'est une bulle de légèreté au milieu de l'effervescence urbaine, un rappel de la beauté des petits riens qui font les grands bonheurs.

[lupitovi]

    Les moineaux ont quitté Paris parce que dans la ville enrichie, sans cesse ravalée, il n'y avait plus de trous où nicher dans les creux des enduits, plus de pierres descellées, de souches de cheminées, plus de fissures. Le moineau parisien s'identifiait avec l'idée d'une capitale printanière et insouciante. Et avec celle de peuple. Tout particulièrement avec la figure du gamin. Déjà dans Les Misérables : Paris a un enfant et la forêt un oiseau; l'oiseau s'appelle le moineau l'enfant s'appelle le gamin. » Hugo se trompe, le moineau, ce passereau justement appelé Passer domesticus, n'est pas un habitant des forêts mais peu importe. Ensuite dans la chanson de Pellegrin (1924) : « J'suis I'moineau, j'suis l'titi/J'suis l'gamin d'Paris. » Puis chez les photographes humanistes : Doisneau, lui-même tête de piaf.     Les moineaux sont partis, en même temps que ce que l'on appelait donc le peuple de Paris. Les uns et les autres ont migré au cours du dernier demi-siècle, comme ils ont quitté Londres et quantité de villes, souvent pour se réfugier en banlieue. Ils ont, dans leur déplacement, abandonné les quartiers riches d'abord, ceux de l'ouest. comme s'ils fuyaient la hausse des loyers. Les moineaux ont quitté la ville quand tant d'autres l'évacuaient. Comme « nos frères gitans de Saint-Ouen », partis « sans crier gare » dans la chanson de Caussimon et Ferré. Et comme les hirondelles, « à tire d'aile et sans retour/Paris n'en avait plus besoin ». On connaît cette ritournelle. lI y a longtemps qu'est apparu, dans la conscience de l'Occident, ce paysage du mur mis à nu, porteur de fragments de décors délavés, de traces de vies humaines, qui nous bouleverse encore. Pas tant celui de la ruine, qui tient de l'antique et qui nous parle de l'Histoire, du destin des civilisations, mais celui du simple mur, le mur du fond, le mur-de-refend lorsque, suite à la destruction d un immeuble, il expose T'intimité des anciens occupants en même temps que l'anatomie du bâtiment, dans une sorte de dissection macabre. On imagine quelle longue période, quelle conjonction de facteurs il fallut pour que, vers le milieu du XIXe siècle cela devienne un thème de l'esthétique. (...)     C'est dans cette atmosphère que sont apparus il y a plus de quarante ans certains travaux anciens d'Ernest Pignon-Ernest. Ce couple de 1979, par exemple, ces deux figures debout, un homme, une femme, avec valise et matelas roulé sous le bras. Cela se passait à Montparnasse, ou bien autour de l'avenue d'Italie, des fronts de l'urbanisme de ces années-là. Sur une photographie de l'époque, on perçoit le chantier de l'hôtel Sheraton. Sur une autre, sous les affiches lacérées, un slogan à la bombe : « Halte à la rénovation». Ernest a depuis collé ses protestations sur tant de murs, les bossages baroques de Naples, les parois de brique, de parpaing, de plâtre éclaté, d'enduit de ciment, de peinture écaillée, les murs crépis et décrépis, les murs fanés, les ocres d'Italie, ou bien les soubassements de meulière, au ras du trottoir, du caniveau, les surfaces de tôle ondulée, rouillée, de Brest. En tel nombre qu'on a pu en oublier les diverses circonstances. Et puis les territoires de l'exil se sont à nouveau déplacés. Vers l'est encore, alors que la municipalité avait fait un mot d'ordre de la « conquête de l'Est ». Les gratteurs, les tagueurs, les fresquistes des années 1980 eurent affaire à Belleville, à Ménilmontant : ils y trouvèrent les mèmes moellons, les mêmes restes de papier peint, de carrelage de cuisine et de salle de bains, les mêmes boisseaux de cheminées en terre cuite ruisselants de goudron. Et leurs travaux sont devenus comme une sorte de chiendent, de végétation spontanée des lieux à l'abandon. Les figures inspirées des Shadocks, l'homme blanc, les pochoirs, les silhouettes à chapeau et manteau noir, les hippopotames et parapluies ouverts se sont mêlés aux arbres à papillons et aux ailantes, ces vieux compagnons des ruines.     Peut-être sera-ce bientôt la fin d'un genre. Il n'y a plus guère de ruines aujourd’hui. Intra-muros, du moins. Plus de terrains vagues, plus d'interstices où loger moineaux, classes pauvres et sans-logis. Moins d'hospitalité. Voilà ce que nous dit le chant du mur, du mur-pignon, du mur-de-refend, du mur sans défense. François Chaslin - Ernest, les pignons de l'exil

[residentraccoon]

Winners ranking oof

Below the cut. I don't hate any of them, as a side note

Personal favorites

1. Fairytale (Norway 2009) - When I found out about this, around the time I became an eurofan in 2018, I was in awe. It's so catchy and fun and omg I love the violin. Perfect

2. Nocturne (Norway 1995) - Want my anxiety to drop down to 0? play this song at any given moment

3. Waterloo (Sweden 1974) - Schalger pop songs from the 70s are my weakness. And how can you not love ABBA?

4. Dansevise (Denmark 1963) - There's something so charming about this whole performance. The singers' stage presence, the flow of the song, the guitar, like idk man it's so beautiful...

5. Heroes (Sweden 2015) - 12 y/o me had her eyes glued to the screen when this was on stage and whenever I re-listen to this I feel the same feeling as I did back then. The first ever eurovision song that I was obsessed with!

6. Arcade (Netherlands 2019) - Nothing more to say. Loving you is a losing game is a huge icon at this point

7. Poupée de cire, poupée de son (Luxembourg 1965) - I love the beat and how bouncy and cheerful it sounds. Her entire career story is so heartbreaking though I couldn't not feel bad for her...

8. Zitti e Buoni (Italy 2021) - Never forget the edgy italian rockers 😔😔

9. Tu te reconnaîtras (Luxembourg 1973) - I get such a nostalgic feeling from this, it's as if I've heard this several times in my childhood before but I can't exactly remember. The piano bits are so lovely

10. Fångad av en stormvind (Sweden 1991) - Why is everyone so harsh on this song, I'll never understand...I love how energetic it is!! It's probably my favorite Carola song tbh (okay I also really like Främling but shhhh)

11. Een beetje (Netherlands 1959) - Cute sassy song that could fit so well in an old disney movie? Yes please

12. Insieme: 1992 (Italy 1990) - Ah yes, the superior "peace and unity" song that actually feels genuine. I swear I've heard this before in the past actually, like before I listened to the esc winners

13. Hallelujah (Israel 1979) - Yes guys bring me the harmonies

14. La det swinge (Norway 1985) - Groovy nordic pop from the 80s my beloved, I love their outfits a lot! 💜

15. A-ba-ni-bi (Israel 1978) - It's so catchy like whenever I listen to this I have it on loop for 5 days straight

16. Vivo Cantando (Spain 1969) - I love this one too! Out of the 4 winners this or Netherlands were the best imo

17. Save your kisses for me (United Kingdom 1976) - Being this wholesome should be illegal /j

18. Un banc, un arbre, une rue (Monaco 1971) - Same story as Tu te reconnaitras, I kind of have the same feelings for both, I get this strange, nostalgic yet comforting deja-vu when I listen to them

19. The Voice (Ireland 1996) - It's so magical and mysterious, teleports me to another world everytime I listen

20. Puppet on a string (United Kingdom 1967) - This feels so wholesome and sweet, I always like these kind of carnival themed songs for some reason

21. De Troubadour (Netherlands 1969) - Love how melancholic yet upbeat it sounds, and the guitar is just amazing

22. Apres toi (Luxembourg 1972) - Makes me feel emotions that I didn't even experience, how great this is...

23. Molitva (Serbia 2007) - It's so anthemic, I feel connected to this song on a personal level

24. Euphoria (Sweden 2012) - It's universally known as the best esc winner, and I do like it but feel that it's a bit too overhyped and all? haven't willingly listened to this for a while, even though I still admire the choreography and whole stage show, which was indeed amazing!

25. L'oiseau et l'enfant (France 1977) - Favorite french winner, hands down

Really like this ones

26. My number one (Greece 2005) - Grown a bit off me lately because I've been way too fixated on the retro winners but still a classic nonetheless. The stage show is just so perfect

27. Rise like a phoneix (Austria 2014) - Outstanding. I'm so impressed by the melody and especially the lyrics

28. Rock me baby (Yugoslavia 1989) - Underrated as heck, it's so funky and the message is interesting!

29. Diggi-loo Diggi-ley (Sweden 1984) - Diggiloo diggiley himlen öppnade sig yeah don't ask me I know the lyrics to this by heart

30. Net als toen (Netherlands 1957) - She looks like she's telling a whole life story, I love this

31. Nous les amoureux (Luxembourg 1961) - Yet another one that I didn't care about before, but when I gave it a try I really liked it. Didn't know he was actually singing about a same gender relationship?? In the early 60s??

32. Love Shine a Light (United Kingdom 1997) - Gives me a warm, comforting feeling, absolutely amazing

33. Boom bang-a-bang (United Kingdom 1969) - Yesss this is so cute as well, I love her expressions lol

34. Hold me now (Ireland 1987) - The superior Johnny Logan song

35. Ne partez pas sans moi (Switzerland 1988) - A literal queen, this was a no brainer win for that year

36. Refrain (Switzerland 1956) - Teleports me into the 50s. Oh to be a singer in the 50s...how would that be?

37. Ding-a-dong (Netherlands 1975) - The lyrics are incredibly silly, though the melody is super catchy

38. Only teardrops (Denmark 2013) - So beautiful, especially the flute.

These are good

39. 1944 (Ukraine 2016) - The glowy tree part always gives me the chills. I recently started to appreciate this more and the story behind the song is very tragic

40. Hard Rock Hallelujah (Finland 2006) - The costumes are 3 edgy 5 me but the song, oh yeah, the song's really great

41. J'aime la vie (Belgium 1986) - What a bop. kind of 80s generic music but I don't care

42. Non ho l'eta (Italy 1964) - The instrumental is pretty, however, since I discovered the lyrics I just...don't like it as much anymore. It's probably my least favorite italian winner if I'm being honest.

43. All kinds of everything (Ireland 1970) - Might have gotten diabetes over how sweet this song is

44. Merci, cherie (Austria 1966) - That bridge is beautiful as heck. underrated

45. What's Another Year (Ireland 1980) - Yeaaah, I like this a bit, feels kind of long at times tbh

46. Take me to your heaven (Sweden 1999) - Tend to overlook this one, I feel like it's not as fun as the other swedish schalgers from the past (Bra vibrationer, Fångad, Waterloo) but gave it a try recently and I sort of...liked it? Sure, not as much as the ones I mentioned earlier but it's solid tbh!

47. Wild Dances (Ukraine 2004) - The live version is very messy tbh, I listen to the studio more

48. Un jour, en enfant (France 1969) - I love how soft her voice is, but ultimately the song transforms into powerful vocals with an epic climax. The thing is that I don't really actively try to listen to this...

49. Stefania (Ukraine 2022) - Epic flute guy is back! Kind of grew off me, maybe if I'll relisten it might go some places up I guess

50. Ein bißchen frieden (Germany 1982) - Please it's so cozy campfire cottagecore aesthetic

Neutral, don't listen that much to them

51. Making your mind up (United Kingdom 1981) - So energetic and silly, 80s trash lolol

52. In your eyes (Ireland 1993) - My favorite out of the 3 back-to-back irish winners

53. Rock n roll kids (Ireland 1994) - One of the legendary irish wins, it's good I guess but not up my alley

54. Amar pelos dois (Portugal 2017) - Reminiscent of those classy 60s chansons which I appreciate, still kind of don't get out of my way to actively listen to this, though

55. I wanna (Latvia 2002) - The first winner that had something more on stage than just dancing. Love the outfit reveal lol

56. Everyway that I can (Turkey 2003) - Trash early 2000s ethnic pop at its finest

57. Satellite (Germany 2010) - ...I kind of used to listen to this at first since I found it quirky and fun, but now, along with some others I kind of forgot about it?

58. Fly on the wings of love (Denmark 2000) - Not exactly my favorite, but it's nice

59. Si la vie est cadeau (Luxembourg 1983) - Feels a bit bland I guess? But it's a good effort

60. Believe (Russia 2008) - Maybe I was influenced about the war, but this really fell down a loooot in my ranking. Epic ice skater guy is great, but I tend to dismiss this one as being a winner for some reason

61. La la la (Spain 1968) - It's repetitive as hell, but at least I like the verses more, right?

62. Tom Pillibi (France 1960) - Her singing can get a bit too high for my ears lmao but it's nice nonetheless

Don't care about them that much, sorry

63. Running scared (Azerbaijan 2011) - It's not bad per se, but I still ask myself how did this win. It lacks substance, any sort of charisma or dynamic between the two

64. Toy (Israel 2018) - I used to haaate this one back in 2018, then it kind of became a meme in my friend group. So I don't really know what to say about this one

65. Everybody (Estonia 2001) - Very funky, but sometimes I forget that this is one of the winners 😂

66. Diva (Israel 1998) - Listen Dana is amazing, but I feel that her song lacks something? She wasn't singing that great either. Don't really find myself listening to it that much so...

67. Dors mon amour (France 1958) - it's very calming, but feels like it drags on for too long I guess?

68. Un premier amour (France 1962) - why is it so repetitive help

69. Why me (Ireland 1992) - it's...too whiny and dramatic for me, sorry, it's the winner that I listened the least so far 😔

Kagome Kagome

Kagome Kagome est un célèbre jeu d'enfants japonais.

« Un enfant est choisi en tant que oni (littéralement « démon » ou « ogre »). Il s'assoit avec les yeux fermés ou couverts pendant que les autres enfants se prennent par la main et marchent autour de lui en chantant la chanson allant avec le jeu. Quand la chanson est finie, le oni dit le nom de la personne derrière lui ; s'il a le nom correct, cette personne devient le oni à son tour.

Traduction française

Kagome Kagome, l'oiseau dans sa cage, Quand vas-tu sortir ? Au soir de l'aube, la grue et la tortue ont glissé. Qui est derrière vous maintenant ?

Parfois les dernières strophes sont traduites littéralement, ce qui donne :

Aux aubes et aux soirs, Qui est devant le dos, Où la grue et la tortue ont glissé et sont tombés ?

Le dos évoque la personne derrière le dos de l'enfant qui joue l'oni. »

Cette comptine, mystérieuse et ambiguë, est l'objet de nombreuses théories et interprétations.

[eurovision-song-bracket]

Welcome to the Eurovision Song Bracket!

This will be a fairly large bracket, consisting of two "teams" of 68 songs for a total of 136 competitors!

The first team has been preselected, and will consist of all previous winners or popular vote winners if applicable.

This means that if your favorite song won, you do not need to submit them (a couple of exceptions apply, see list at the bottom/read more for details)

Submissions are closed!

Rules!

- Entries must have been a part of the main competition of Eurovision of any year (I might do a MGP mini bracket if the people want that)

- Once again, you do not need to submit winners, they are (mostly) automatically in. Again, see bottom for details and explanations.

- You may submit multiple songs, but please don't send the same song over and over.

- Propaganda is highly encouraged! There is a spot for it in the submission form, and adding it on to the poll itself or sending an ask is also allowed. You may send a DM, but I'll probably be slow to respond that way.

How it Works!

- There will be multiple brackets of 34 songs

- Each of the preselected winners will be randomly against one of the submitted songs. Pairings will be decided through number assignment and a random number generator.

- Vote for your favorite! I will include links to the songs in the poll so you can listen to both before voting. The winner will move onto the next round until we find the winner of that bracket.

- Once all brackets are complete, the winners of their individual brackets will go onto the finals to determine the (unofficial) Ultimate Eurovision Song Winner!

- There will be a preliminary around, as 1969 (hehe nice) had a four way tie, so we will need to determine which of those four will represent that year!
