France FRANCE 2021 - Barbara Pravi - Voilà

[escYOUnited]

Écoutez moi
Moi la chanteuse à demi
Parlez de moi
À vos amours, à vos amis
Parler leur de cette fille aux yeux noirs et de son rêve fou
Moi c'que j'veux c'est écrire des histoires qui arrivent jusqu'à vous
C'est tout

Voilà, voilà, voilà, voilà qui je suis
Me voilà même si mise à nue j'ai peur, oui
Me voilà dans le bruit et dans le silence

Regardez moi, ou du moins ce qu'il en reste
Regardez moi, avant que je me déteste
Quoi vous dire, que les lèvres d'une autre ne vous diront pas
C'est peu de chose mais moi tout ce que j'ai je le dépose là, voilà

Voilà, voilà, voilà, voilà qui je suis
Me voilà même si mise à nue c'est fini
C'est ma gueule c'est mon cri, me voilà tant pis
Voilà, voilà, voilà, voilà juste ici
Moi mon rêve mon envie, comme j'en crève comme j'en ris
Me voilà dans le bruit et dans le silence

Ne partez pas, j'vous en supplie restez longtemps
Ça m'sauvera peut-être pas, non
Mais faire sans vous j'sais pas comment
Aimez moi comme on aime un ami qui s'en va pour toujours
J'veux qu'on m'aime parce que moi je sais pas bien aimer mes contours

Voilà, voilà, voilà, voilà qui je suis
Me voilà même si mise à nue c'est fini
Me voilà dans le bruit et dans la fureur aussi
Regardez moi enfin et mes yeux et mes mains
Tout c'que j'ai est ici, c'est ma gueule c'est mon cri
Me voilà, me voilà, me voilà
Voilà, voilà, voilà, voilà
Voilà​

[Mimmon]

First National Selection song is out already

 

[Edweis]

Okay okay, I know none of these but some descriptions look really promising ! It seems FranceTV listened to my wish and granted us with 12 very different acts. I can't wait to listen to the one from the Tahitians, I love Polynesian music

Only 3 songs are out for now according to that last article

Barbara Pravi - Voilà

I definitely don't want a ballad for France but her voice is interesting. While the instru is quite linear her vocals bring rhythm to the song. It sounds like a classical oldie, and for once, I can even say I like it.

Céphaz - On a mangé le soleil

I would have liked a lower tone, but it's typical french pop with its positive vibes. Lyrics are kinda repetitive and pl stop with the "La La La" but I quite like it overall.

Pony X - Amour Fou

Okay, this is totally my shit. I can't believe I finally love a French NF song. It's by far my favorite of the three and could really well be my favorite of the whole selection. I love some electro banger.

Gosh, I'm hyped. What is happening to my France.

Okay so far from 3 songs this is my jam
But all 3 songs so far amazing
I am looking foward to Philippine song

 

[astatine86]

Amour Fou is the one for me for now. I love it!

 

[Loindici]

guys, is this even france tv? the 3 songs have been good so far.

i don't know what will happen, but i hope the remaining songs are as good

 

[rasmuslights]

Barbara Pravi is my favourite so far, but I also really like the other two songs! None of the artists I wanted is actually here on the lis, but still I have high hopes so far! Barbara Pravi is for sure top 10 matrial. Also excited for Philippine!

[Koori]

Wow, my favorite country is back!

I really liked:

Barbara Pravi – Voilà
Philippine – Bah Non
Juliette Moraine – Pourvu Qu’on M’Aime
Terence James – Je T’Emmènerai Danser

And waiting to listen to Tutti

 

[HayashiM]

I agree all three songs are good and I dare say very French, so yay for that!
However...

$$*@*/&=&$&$%!!!!

Voilà!

Job done, stop searching France. points and certainly a top 10 material. Frenchy-Frenchy-French. Jury potential like crazy. Chapeau!

 

[harey]

My favourite one, really modern : https://mobile.france.tv/france-2/eurovision-france/2156293-lmk-26-ans-magique.html

I also like 21 juin, céphaz and Philippine.

 

[ESC94]

Amour Fou please!!

 

[Looren]

The songs are geoblocked for me

 

[EscGeek]

I love "Magique" by LMK.
Pam Rabbit lookalike, that sounds a little bit like Margaret in her polish songs. Of course I'm sold on this one.
Plus that sound she makes at the bridge.

 

[Sabrewulf238]

I like the three songs I've heard so far (on the post from Edweis)

Voilà and Amour Fou in particular.

Seems promising from France so far.

 

[AlekS]

My faves:
Barbara Pravi - the chorus reminds me Edith Piaf's "Padam, Padam" a lot tho.
LMK - gOrl slayed every inch of my bodEH

[Sammy]

Again - it's a difficult choice for me. Many songs I really really like.
Céphaz, Juliette Moraine, Amui, Ali, Juin le Duo, Andriamad and of course Barbara Pravi.

No that's what I call a diverse and colorful line-up. Well done France!

 

[Edweis]

The songs are geoblocked for me

The Francetv link doesn't work for you ? Others seem to be able to access it so it's not reserved for France only

Okay now that I listened to the 12 of them a few times I can share my ranking and comments. But first of all, here is my general impression of this NF.
I love the diversity they brought us. It's a celebration of multicultural France, I'm proud of this selection. There are a lot of songs with summer & positive vibes. I don't know how to feel about that, as the instrumental parts seem a little simple to me. There are many repetitions in lyrics too, with the famous "La La La" and its siblings that can all go to hell.

I had a hard time making my ranking, especially the top 4 as their places kept switching.

1. Andriamad - Alléluia
Her backing vocals in the second part with him singing on top really bring out some flavour. It's maybe a little too repetitive, but I love the general mood here, I can totally see it on the ESC stage (I wouldn't expect a high result though).

2. Pony X - Amour Fou
I like the electro sounds, it's a secret to no one, so of course I like this one. Yes, we hear this type of music on radio and all, but it's the first time France is proposing us something like this. After all, we produce a lot of DJ's, it would only be fitting to have a song that gets inspiration from this type of music as our representative.

3. LMK - Magique
Female bop incoming, it makes me want to move. The girl has an attitude and is giving us a modern proposition.

4. Philippine - Bah non
I definitely like it more than her previous hit posted here. Like all the songs in this nf it's maybe a little too "linear" but she really brings out her personality, she seems assertive, she catches our attention.

5. 21 Juin Le Duo
I love the percussions here. Classic summer vibes, they used to do the first part of Trois Cafés Gourmands and it shows, their style is pretty close. It doesn't bring much novelty but it works well.

6. Barbara Pravi - Voilà
I won't lie, I immediately thought of Edith Piaf. Don't get fooled, no one can be on par with this legend but the style of her song and her general attitude are all the same. Her vocals are quite varied. However I would be disappointed if she wins, I'd like for France to bring something else than a ballad, it's time to showcase more styles.

7. Céphaz - On a mangé le soleil
Like I said before, it's fresh and full of hope.

8. Casanova - Tutti
Typical poster boy with an even more typical poster pop song but what can I say, the more I listen to it the more I like it, it gets in your head, and doesn't want to leave it.

9. ALI - Paris me dit (Yalla ya helo !)
Aside from the fact he gets negative points for singing an ode to Paris (IT'S A JOKE GUYS CALM DOWN), I think this song has good potential, it was written by Hyphen Hyphen which I like but right now it's not enough, too tame.

10. Amui - Maeva
I wish they had gone farther into the musical folklore, more percussions wouldn't have hurt. I think it's too weak for ESC at this stage.

11. Juliette Moraine
Her song is in the same vein as Barbara Pravi... who performed it better. Less interesting voice, less variety, less passion.

12. Terence James
Talk about title repetition, try to be more innovative in the lyrics next time, will you. Cornemuse was a good idea but should have been more prominent to give the song a modern folk coloration, which Solovey did perfectly last year. As it is now it's just an average song.


@tuorem sis where you at

 

[ESC94]

Sorry for the probably very stupid question, but what does "" mean??
