Orelsan is such a good writer, you will almost never be disappointed with him.
Actually the thing is that he's that king of artists who can create a really particular universe, not only in the music but also with the movie, the videos, all the stuff that gravitates around. He's creating an univers inside witch he can make coherent content. We don't have that much artists who can do that here in France.
@@lespodcasques5552 indeed, he's the one and only who made such a thing (who made it well)
@@dexsimon8192 Actually, it might be quite real at the time we're writing, but if ya old enough you'll remember Saïan Supa Crew who knew how to create that same vide. Unfortunately the band didn't had the same buzz (and mainly, it was before the Internet). The thing with Orelsan is that he got the success AND the talent. I'm not even jalous : good for him, he represents our town pretty well
@@lespodcasques5552 et surtout ils connaissaient la même utilisation de double ou triple sens. Qu'on retrouvé dans suicide social et dans la preuve par 3
this is quite well translated but when you actually speak french and understand all the play on words it just hits different trust me
When you are a dad of a 17years old son, this song give u tears ...
Tbh I'm 18, this song me tears aswell
@@krsardoche9757 damn soutien les gars n'oubliez pas un enfant n'est pas un handicap c'est juste une raison de plus pour aller plus loin et c'est la seule personne pour qui vous devriez vraiment vous plier en deux
Orelsan wrote and shot a movie "Comment c'est loin" based on his life when he was a teenager. His friends plays their proper role and there are songs written by him
Not a teenager more like a twenty something !
Orelsan is the french dubber of Saitama if I don't mistake
@@ryuji37 yes it's correct 😁 you don't mistake don't worry bro
Cette chanson de Orelsan est probablement ma préférée, je suis tellement triste qu’elle n'existait pas quand j’étais jeune...
C’est très agréable d’avoir le point de vue anglais sur le rap français, merci d’exister'
Protéines.
J'avoue j'aurais aimé l'entendre dans mon adolescence.
je suis adolescent et je l'écoute a votre honneur et je kiffe
La vie d’ma mère ! En l’écoutant, j’me revois ado et j’me dis « il marque plein de points » même à 20/21 ans cette chanson m’aurait fait du bien
Appreciate it
@@breakingbars6168 so u speak French or u just copy paste on Google translate?
I genuinely think this song made me a better, more stable, mentally canalized, more calm person.
Was thinking exactly the same, and I genuinely had tears coming up when watching him discover this gem
To me, you're one of the only kinda "react-youtuber" that I really enjoy to watch, especially for the reason that I admire your investment into lyrics that artists write, and I think that's fcking dope, clever and open-minded. This song is probably one of my favourite french rap songs of all times, it just reminds me sooo much of my teenage years, these moments when you don't fcking know what to do with your life. In some ways, in France, for some of us young french people, Orelsan has been a way to understand ourselves and not to feel so lonely with those feelings. I really appreciated that you understood most of it, and at least tried to understand most of it. You're doing a great job, keep going, you deserve way fcking more visiblity. +
Ey I appreciate that man, glad you enjoy the vids!
Still remember the first time I came across this song when i was on a train, moving away to another city. Then I heard, "Comme à chaque fois qu'tu déménages, c'est un monde qui s'écroule" it really hit home and i started sobbing lol. such a beautiful song.
Orelsan ... Some of his song are so deep. Especialy in his latest album. When you take a break to understand what he means, you realize he's not just some random guy rapping and talking shit. A real modern philosopher. I really feel connected to his lirycs. Maybe because we seem to have lived the same shit at the same period and we grew up with the same references (He's actually born just 9 days before me). I wish I had the chance to listen to such a song 20 years ago when I was a teenager. It would have helped a lot!
BTW it was interresting for a french speaking dude like me to see how people abroad see and understand his stuff.
Cheers from Belgium!
PS : Protein ;-)
- Comme t’es chelou, il y a peut être un moyen que les gens veulent te frapper
- Sounds beautiful!
Literally means "Cuz you're weird, It's possible that people might want to hit you" 😂😂
Cette chanson est ma préférée d'Orelsan, elle nous fait nous sentir moins seuls, un de mes artistes favoris
He's mostly addressing his past self in this song, so some of the points have a slightly different meaning because of time: when he mentions the "anything that shoots", he's referring to the 240p (no I didn't miss a digit) digital camera he used to shoot his homemade clips and vlogs in during the MySpace era. They spent more than a month's salary once getting a decent enough camera that they could have a slither of a hope their clip could get on TV one day.
Talking about that camera, there's now a docu-series on his way to celebrity, made exclusively with real footage, because his little brother was always in awe of him and filmed him all along from before he was even trying to get known. It's called "don't ever show this to anyone", and it's really fun to have so much real footage of the actual thing all along.
17:40 A few months after the release of this song, he released his album: “The party is over.” On this album, one of the clips is shot Entirely with an IPHONE! (you can see the making of on his CZcams Chanel.
Every time I listen to this song, I wanna cry. The lyrics are so great, Orelsa forever.
I really like watching these vids as a french brit, I share cultures and languages with the both of you so watching you react is interesting - though i sometimes get frustrated with the translation or explanation lmao
Orelsan is for me one of the best french artist. His writing is si good !
This song makes me think about my life, 'cause i'm a 17y teenager and i want to apply his advices
Il y a pas mal de différence au niveau de l'école entre les français et les américains. Ta vidéo aide vraiment a visualiser la manière de penser des différents pays donc merci a toi ! Je te propose aussi la musique de "Bigflo et Oli - Je suis".
Protéine !!!!
americain...
@@funkydoc13 👍
Il est britannique du coup leurs Rap ajoute encore un niveau de différence.
@@daniellac.7588 ah oui effectivement je m'excuse^^
@@kynmve7039 faut pas t'excuser, je comprends bien que tout le monde ne fasse pas la différence. Puis surtout, si t'écoute juste le rap US et que tu compare au rap britannique tu comprendra très vite la différence. C'est vraiment de la folie.
Yeah, this song just hits really hard.
I remember the first time I listened to it, as a French teenager. I was in a very dark period, felt misunderstood, everything was just shitty. Yes I still remember remember the day, I cried my fucking eyes out. Still do. But man, every time I'm having a difficult time, this song just make me feel better.
But bro, this song resonate so much on the heart of the poor hyper sensitive with anxiety and depressive girl that I was, and still am sometimes. That's how you know this is a golden song. + the instrumentals tho'. Pure magic.
the last lines always give me chills. I've known about his music for about 9 or 10 years and he never disappointed me.
What i really like about this song is that Orelsan is actually talking to his younger self.
OrelSan really is an amazing songwritter. Even though i'm french myself, very few french songs hit me that much and Orelsan has written most of them. Btw, i don't think you're reacted to "San" from Orelsan already, which i like a lot ! You should check that out :) ... Oh and Protein !
Please react to Orelsan-Défaite de famille the song is so dope and the lyrics are on the clip
YESS it's so good
I did it too, it's comming
J'adore cette chanson je pourrais l'écouter 24h/24, elle est trop belle !
I like how you give attention to little details, french is difficult. Very good react video 👌
PROTEIN BRO. Such a good reaction, I'm glad you somehow feel how powerfull the song is. I swear, It hits me real hard first time I listened to it
This is my favorite from Orelsan ! A diamond.
Every time I listen to this music I can't help ending up crying, it's just beautiful
I don't use proteins, but I follow this singer since 2010, even went at his concert, rly a good songwritter, u can recognize urself in many of his songs, that's the feeling I have.
This one gave me so much chills during first listen
My brother loves Orelsan. I never took the time to listen to his songs. I’m glad I am now.
You should listen to "Bigflo et Oli - Rentrez chez vous" or "Orelsan - La petite marchande de porte clés" which are great story telling songs ! I think you might like it
Protéines 😑 Orelsan ♥️ Bien que je sois une femme je me retrouve tellement dans cet album... This song is one of my favourite. Always makes me think about my nephew.
Even though I'm not the biggest fan of his newer stuff, Orelsan really made some classic songs
Nice reaction as always, protein
I would love to see some more orelsan on your channel
Man love your videos ! I'm a francophone and it feels good to see someone reacting to classic songs I love !
I personnaly discovered the song when it got out and i felt so targeted by the lyrics it blew my mind, most likely my favourite orelsan song (protein xD)
There's a version feminine by barbara Pravi of this song and it's pretty good you should see it !
Good job Orelsan, good job Breaking Bars ! Big up from France ;)
Fact you don't care about : the sample of this music comes from an anime ost, "Greed" in Haikyuu
You should listen " Inachevés" by Casseurs Flowters. It's the duo Orel made with his best friend Gringe. This song gives me goosebumps and energy every time I feel like shit. It kind saved me.
Oh man I've been waiting for this one since a while
I really like your vidéo. Orelsan is a fucking legend to be honest.
Protéines !
I applauded you ! I am french and I like orelsan very much thx for your videos
Glad you enjoy them!
I discovered your channel yesterday, and i love your vidéo, keep doing good work 💪
My older brother gave me his old car, the CD player was falty and you couldn't get the CD out of it. His move was to burn this song on a CD and stick it into the player, so that I would listen to his advices from another voice. I was 26. This CD is still stuck in my car
i am happy i can understand french AND english so i can fully enjoy this type of video!
Dude, your're one of the best react channel out here. You take time to apppreciate every line and that's mad!
Il checkera que s'il a une traduction
Ey thanks my guy, really appreciate that!
The translation is really pretty good. Thanks to whoever did that. There were a few mistakes and mistranslations however (it's a tough task)but still, overall pretty good.
Some ideas for reactions:
MC Solaar - Les Sequelles (deffo need to understand French to get the word play)
Youssoupha - Polaroïd Experience
PROTEIN, keep it going mate
FRENCH MASTERPIECE ♥
Masterpiece
Loved your video
There is a French song that I really like, in the same vibes that this one (by the lyrics). It's called "Je suis" of bigflo et oli. They are really good writers, and je suis is for me their best song, you should check it out ^^
Protéines ?
nice to see you enjoying these songs dude8 have you thought about getting like Babbel or Duolingo or something to understand a bit more french? I think you're learning already and through music you like is the best way too
I have but im so lazy, also failed french in school loool
Nice lmao
Just a little anecdote about this song and generally about Orelsan, he is a fan of japanese animation and this song is based on an OST from "Haikyuu !!" who's named "Greed".
Hi Tom! When can we find your translations? Unfortunately most french rap yt videos don't have English captions, and as a french living in uk, it's major drag to show some gems to my brittish friends... if you could upload it somewhere and drop the link in the description of your videos that would be awesome! Take care mate
also, the soundtrack (GREED) comes from the sport anime Haikyu which is a fukin masterpiece,
"protein" thank you very much for your videos it's so nice.
Thanks, glad you enjoy them!
This one is an amazing classic for some people, very helpful song for teenagers (protein haha)
I'm french and the first time I've heard this song was on a festival, I've never heard it before and I was literally about to cry, it was awesome and moving
proteins ;)
and this is my alarm clock everyday morning
PROTINE ! happy to see you are sensitive to Orelsan's texts, he is one my favorites :)
Note pour trop tard is my favorite song of Orelsan !
magnifique musique
protein :) nice video, one of my favourite songs from Orel!
You should really react to Luv Resval- MPC Pt2 a masterclass !!
#Protein
Protein !!!
Always watching here, glad you enjoy Orelsan's songs, he's in my opinion the most talented french rapper (not to mention Damso but he's belgium so doesn't count)
Okay, I was your age about your age ago
The road to adulthood is full of slippery turns
Becoming a man: there's no internships, no remedial classes
Now you're in the deep end, figure out how to swim
You'll always have a sort of bitterness, a longing to leave everything behind
To punch those guys playing guitar on the beach
It's like every time you move out, your world falls apart
Listen, the story writes itself with every turn of the page
Listen ... I took a few notes
[Verse]
If you feel like no one understands you, it's 'cause no one understands you
Life is easier once you get that into your head
How can you blame them? You don't even understand yourself
Often alone with your problems, often the problem is you
Most advice from adults are just shitty clichés(natine french word)
'Cause they don't understand the game but they follow the rules
So don't trust everything your parents say, pretend
They don't have all the answers, you're their first child
You'd waste so much time fighting
Some battles you just can't win, especially when you're not the one paying the rent
Get over it, there's not a lot of reasons to start shit
In your own home, even if you're in the right
If there's one thing you shouldn't question:
You're smarter than you used to be, but you're still a dumbass
You're too sensitive, you perceive everything as an attack
Ask a crazy person if he's crazy and see what he says
And another thing: you're not gonna fuck tonight
Once you understand that, it'll be like a weight off your shoulders
'Cause you're way too desperate and they can tell
'Cause you're way too self-conscious, you're gonna drink too much
Learn to shut up, you'll seem mysterious
Learn to sell yourself better and you'll fuck in a month or two
You always fall for the same kind of girls
You know, the kind that makes you unhappy
So don't act all sad when she breaks your heart
In the long run, you're saving yourself some tears
Next, you'll be scared of commitment, you'll tell yourself the grass is greener
Anywhere else, you'll miss out on what you already have
Basically, you sleep with your girl while thinking 'bout another
You didn't like it
Once she dumps you, you think of her when you sleep with the other
Okay
You'll never stop people from talking
And since you're a weirdo, some people might wanna beat you up
You can do push ups, you can learn to fight
But no matter how ripped you get, getting punched still hurts
Your brain and your ego work backwards
The more you try to prove something, the more it backfires
If you say you're not scared, it means you're scared
If you say you're not hurt, it means you're starting to feel the pain
Know your height, don't punch above your weight
You'll see sometimes you'll lose to guys you thought were weak as fuck
Of course, life is unfair
If you don't like the laws, don't be a fucking judge
Don't believe the insults, there's no race that makes a bastard
Your mom doesn't have to be a hooker for you to be a son of a bitch
There's no sexual orientation that makes an assfucker
The more you react, the more fazed you'll look, let it slide
The best jokes are the meanest or the dumbest
But the worst human beings are cruel losers
Never pick on those weaker than you, keep those jokes in your head
They'll fit better in a lyric, in a movie or a sketch
School is a drag, there's not much you can do about it
Dropping out means plunging early into another hell
Throw away your backpack, you'll have the weight of society on your shoulders
A boss, your mother and your father
75% of classes are useless
Pornstars know firsthand that doing jackshit only delays the end
You say we'll see, you act like a know-it-all but you're fragile
You regret the health screenings as much as the exams
School is a filter that makes everything boring as fuck
Like those black and white movies, it's harder to get into it
It's harder when you dread it, like you're first time
I've been making sexual metaphors the whole time 'cause that's all you think about
Listen in Spanish class, tell yourself Latinas are the hottest in the world
In chemistry, tell yourself you could make drugs
Stop memorizing things you don't understand
And in philosophy, you weren't supposed to tell your whole life story
Oh, and no one forces you to smoke weed
Actually, it works better on hyperactive people
Being high isn't even your favorite part
When you're stoned, all you do is fake being sober
Your favorite part is going to Jardiland with the squad
To steal bamboo and make a bong
You just need a passion
So listen to the guidance counselor and do the opposite of what they say
Basically, everything that they say is a waste of time
You have to put your all into and never give up
If you wanna make films, you just need something that films
Saying, "I don't got the equipment or the contacts," is for losers
They'll tell you to be number 1, never to be happy
First place is for those who need a grade, who lack self-confidence
You're at the moment of your life where you can be anything you want
The same moment where it's the hardest to know what you want
Apart from hanging with your squad
Especially not missing the latest rumor, the latest funny thing
Honestly, you wouldn't miss out much if you left for 4 years
Wait! Actually it's important to fuck around while you still can
So you don't wake up one day when you're 40, saying
"Fuck! I'm gonna die but I never enjoyed life
My family won't let me live, I'll have to leave them
To go snort coke in a club somewhere and find some girls to prey on"
I see these types of guys all the time so, little terrorist, go have a blast
Go hit up the club even if, I confess, you probably won't get in
You'll go back the next week or the year after
Need I remind you you weren't gonna fuck tonight anyway
If you go home, take a picture of the locker ticket
Realize that you can't hold your liquor, you black out too fast
If you find pride in downing shot after shot
It means you're more attached to a substance than anything of substance
Stop getting so worked up, if you wanna dance, go dance
The only rule on the dance floor is: don't try moves you've never done before
If you're ever the first one to fall asleep at a party
Looking in the mirror is the first thing you should do after waking
It might just
Save you from spending a family dinner with a dick drawn on your cheek
Those family dinners where you're bored, where they talk so loud
About nothing, but at least they're talking, that's a good start
Truths are complicated, clichés are constant
Sorry if not everyone at your table is an expert
You focus on other's flaws and that's your biggest flaw
Life is made of cycles, that's why I fall back on the same words
Don't be paranoid 'bout who your real friends are
There's only one way to know: let time sort them out
I've never regretted asking for advice or calling someone
Often, you think they're weird when it's just poor reception
The same story has many versions
The best way to solve a conflict is to ask questions
Stop spending your life running away, anxious about the future
'Cause there's nothing you can do to prepare for the worst
Like terrorist attacks, bad news hits when you least expect it
Some loved one, pressed for time, will leave before you
You'll see happy people answer a call
Their face will distort and nothing will ever be the same again
There's nothing to do except be present
To dress the wound, change the bandages; the only cure is time
Bigflo & Oli - Je Suis (Audio) React, its not bad or "San"d'Orelsan
Whoever translated the text translated it words for words and you loose a lot of the meaning that way… it’s a bit of a shame
This song translated properly based on context and not literally would be so much more impactful
I’m glad you liked it though, I saw orelsan back in 2012 live when he came to Switzerland for his album Le chant des sirènes. He’s been my fave french rapper ever since I’m always so excited when people discover him 😌
Protein dude french power
Very good reaction. You've got it.
React to orelsan "Defaite de famille" you'll love it
Oh and proteins
The BEST REACT CHANNEL EVERRRRRR. Thank for your videos🤝🏾🤝🏾🤝🏾
#proteins
I tried to write a sentence with proteine but i could not find one.
But you should listen to some bigflo et Oli songs like je suis or their longer ones
protein
You should try listening "Elle pleut" by Nekfeu (feat. Nemir) (wich we could translate to "she rains"). Definitely one of my favorite songs from him.
Proteins.
Protein !! Liked your review !
Protein! And also I like "San", "inachevé" and even more "la petite marchande de porte clé" from in that you didn't review (the last one is not well known but I think it's amazing)
Orelsan is one of my favorite french rappers, really good writer. I cannot recommend enough for you to listen to Stromae if you never have. He's not really what one would call a rapper (althought he started with rap), but he's a fucking monument, i like to refer to him as the Jacques Brel of our time (and Jacques Brel is a fucking LEGEND when it comes to francophone songwriters). He featured in one of Orelsan's song : La pluie (and ofc it's good). Just listen to La pluie and then check his full concert live in Montreal : Stromae - Racine Carrée. As for french rappers i recommend you check Disiz La Peste (this dude should be listed as Public Utility) Lucio Bukowski and Kacem Wapalek 's work, they're not mainstream but god they know how to write and rap!
Keep reviewing good music, i like what you do! A french viewer.
Disiz La Peste : almost every song
Lucio bukowski : Nativité (is my favourite song he wrote)
Kacem Wapalek : Marie Jeanne - Le temps passe - Des chiffres et des lettres (and so many more)
Also, Hippocampe Fou is really good aswell
Just ask if you need a translation, i'm up for it ;)
Such a great video, keep going ! Protein
Totaly proteined 🔥🔥
Protein man ! I am happy to discover you !
#protein
protein mamen
Protéines my boy
I’m a f*cking legend 🥺 Protein
Late but Protein !
Good job dude ;) stay fit with protein !!!
Ayy Protein
Proteing
Protein mate
The goat 🔥
M'y song.. to 15 to m'y 18yold🥺🇨🇵🇨🇵🇨🇵🇨🇵
idk who gaves your translations but sometimes its really scuffed. For instance at 9:50 its written
"you're gonna fuck your girl and think of someone else
you didn't like it
you think about her when you sleep with the other one once she's left you"
but it should be translated like this :
"You fuck with your girlfriend while thinking about another one, you didn't like it
You think about her when you fucks with the other one after she broke with you"
at 16:11 , text is not even at the right place, "Listen in spanish" should be at the end of the first sentence, not at the beginning of the second one, so you obviously didn't understand the sense, thats awkward.
but its great to see international reaction from french music :) keep going on
Great reaction ! Can you react to "Bigflo et Oli - Je suis" pls ?
Did you check Ibeyi the featuring ? Women voices in this track.
Please do you know what language the ladies are speaking . Or the lyrics to their last chorus
Yeeee my favorite song :)
