First Time Hearing Stromae - L’enfer (Official Music Video) REACTION

[@Tiisiphone]

Stromae battled burn out and depression for many years. This song is kind of a self-exorcism.

[@JoanneDeZoete]

As an Dutch person I grow up with Stromae, he is one of the most inspired artist I ever seen and heard🙃

[@rappertoire]

1000% mee eens!!

[@nassya9814]

I'm British and grew up with him too !

[@ChantaltheFrency]

I'm Belgian/ French and a def grew up with him❤️

[@harmkeryan5144]

This is such a great comeback of Stromae.. you should check out his other songs, the message is always strong and deep, whereas the music is overall more positive. Check out things like Papaoutai, Santé, quand c'est, Tous les mêmes, Formidable and more! (Carmen, for instance ;))

[@matbru1986]

don`t forget Carmen

[@prettywitty1912]

Carmen Dude!

[@DavidTennantEnthusiast]

Batard is so good fr

[@tassoskard8157]

Stromae is really a genius artist. I can’t believe that this the first time you hear him!!! We really want to see more reaction with him. Any song!

[@cadzcrew]

I’ve reacted to two other song by him now 😃💯 thank you!!!

[@pitikiwi01]

oh cadz! I'm so glad you reacted to stromae! and it's curious that you don't know him. He is Belgian and had worldwide success with "alors on danse", after his album "racine carrée" was a huge success he was everywhere and had a concert about every two or three days for a few years. (his videos are works of art, formidable, papaoutai, tous les mêmes, carmen (a satire on social networks), cancer, ..) at the time of starting his tour in Africa, he did the anti malaria and .. that was the beginning of the end.Since then he has been living with the side effects of this treatment. Hallucinations, psychic decompensation, he felt like he was losing his mind and still lives with it today. Hence the suicidal thoughts.. i'm more than happy to hear stromae again i missed hum so much!!

[@gattypascal]

a little thing that can't be traduced and is a very great pun : "réfléchir" in french both means "to think" and "to reflect", so when he says "i've been thinking a lot, and that's precisely the problem about you", he talks about the reflection of himself. his image in a mirror is the problem that makes him have suicidal thoughts.

[@admerin6961]

His physicality, the way he incorporated those movements, mind blowing, seriously.

[@alyz8376]

Stromae is too good and too talented for this world , He is like a real diamond in middleof all gem stones , i always said if everyone else are singers stromae is an artist , everything from his voice , Music and the meaning behind his songs is spot on and yes is in french and he said he will not sing in english becuase he cant express himself and im so happy that he sing in french let the world catch up

[@tompham637]

Thank you for the reaction to STROMAE. He is from Belgium. His father is from Rwanda, his mother is from Belgium. He sings with full emotion and passion. His songs are meaningful. Great reaction. 100 likes. Hello from Vietnam 🇻🇳.

[@entity22]

he's truly an artist, his music sounds great and there's always depth to it ,from the music to the lyrics and the visuals, the interpretation

[@djee475]

Always great to see someone discovering Stromae for the first time. He has plenty of other gems and everything he does, every move he makes, every shot you see is planned to perfection by him and his team. For example this was first performed live during the 20'o clock news in France. Mind you, he is BELGIAN. :)

[@mariagraziaguaraascio]

when I first saw the video, I actually didn’t understand what all those particular movements meant, now I really felt how he was feeling, like screaming and fighting against those thoughts. stromae is pure art.

[@GrafindeKlevemark]

Yes, he is a genius - the person personally I have been waiting for over the years (old lady of 74) - his voice, his composition, his interpretation ! Racine carrée was the first album of his I bought - I'll be there to buy his latest (apparently 4th March, in France as far as I know). Streaming and all the rest, I don't understand. I subscribe to Spotify, but want to have the album in my hands, like a book !!!

[@EyesOfGehenna]

I suffer from depression among other things and the movements he makes are very much representative of feelings I have. I describe it as "feeling impossible". This song really means a lot to me.

[@majora231]

Yeah the twitching of anxiety ... but hitting the beats at the same time

[@ivanhenderson31]

I made comments on the original video explaining that his movements and emotions displayed shift from, what I would interpret from my own experience with depression and suicical thoughts, the two spectrums of thinking about "it". One is quiet, contemplative, internal, while the other is throwing a fist into the air, screaming in a car by yourself , and trying to understand and come to any terms with how the hell you got 'here' in the first place. A great piece I agree. Stay on the bright side - you'll be fine. 🙂👍

[@Cassandra6]

Stromae started me on my journey of getting into many different kinds of music regardless of language. He’s a genius in my opinion

[@sundaypie2088]

Check his songs Papaoutai, Quand C'est, Tous les mêmes, Carmen and so on. Add the subtitles. His songs are all mega powerful.

[@pioline741]

Stromae is French Verlan, featuring inversion of syllables in a word, it means maestro.

[@sanderdeboer6034]

Please checkout all his other songs, especially from his former album. All of them were great in my opinion, and most of the videos (if not all) are cinematic masterpieces. This video was about his mental breakdown in 2017 after using anti malaria medicine.

[@dariajustdaria2292]

Stromae is a true artist, such a gem ,we've missed him so much 💜

[@nikkos34]

The album came out today and it's a masterpiece ! 35 minutes of pure feels...

[@Ras6200]

Thanks for being open minded to explore music which isn't in English! In French the lyrics have even deeper meaning. Stromae is a Belgian artist, born Paul Van Haver, he's more than just a singer but a performance artist who composes and writes his own work. He also puts himself in character role for each song. Stromae was huge in French speaking countries about 9 years ago. Energetic and seemingly permanently on tour. If I remember correctly, while on tour in Africa, (his dad was Rwandan), he suffered serious physical and mental side effects to an anti Malaria drug. He simply disappeared overnight and became a clothing designer and manufacturer instead. Suddenly, he's back with a great new album and a global tour including Wembley May 2023. Can't wait!

[@pabloesco2007]

He's from belgium but talk french , he made so many deep song like "Quand C'est" (about Cancer), "Santé" (About talking and 'salute' invisible people in society) etc...By the way, his nickname prononce like the reverse of Maestro (Stro Ma Hey) ;) Thanks for your reaction ! Take Care !

[@skarfino]

une grande partie de la Belgique parle français

[@pabloesco2007]

@@skarfino Je sais bien , c'est une légère explication pour les anglophones en autre.

[@blindazabat9527]

If this is really your first Stromae video, you're inn for a journey my friend!

[@vero.83]

Stromae is so special! 😍 Great reaction

[@outi5001]

So glad you found him, Stromae is just brilliant! I really hope you continue with Stromae. He is a real qenius with such creative melodies and beats as well as deep and meaningful lyrics. Check out Papaoutai, Formidable, Tous les memes, Alors on dance, just to name few, you’ll be blown away!

[@carndacier]

What I like with this clip... You start in his eyes, and the camera slowly moves back, showing how alone he is... and it ends in its eyes, as if we were actually in his mind, and he's alone in there. Love it !

[@YassminYassmin-mq1cf]

That's what we call an artist ❤

[@gustavoballan973]

A song about depression. At the end, you can see that all the song occurrs inside his mind, as the camera finally gets out of his head through his pupile. Excellent video for a more excellent song.

[@_manepitaj_-1256]

Good reaction, bro. Catching moments and you show it perfect, that u just understood what he wants to say and espacially maybe what stromae went trough... Our thoughts can be our biggest enemy. Just insane... Keep it up and greetings from Germany :)

[@youngkaway]

To me this guy is one of the most talented creative artists in the industry not jus in europe but worlwide react to tous le memes its my fav🔥🔥

[@quentinf5151]

I really enjoyed to watch your reaction :) thank you for sharing it !

[@martine2u]

This song is just a hit to the gut. I can't get it out of my head since I heard it. Very powerful. Stromae is a very diverse artist. He's got his own style that cannot be describe. He is the real deal. A true, complete artist. I think what sets him apart is the absolute sincerity he's putting out there. He lays down his vulnerability and what makes him question the world without affect or drama. It's just there like a bug to observe. And he does it to a fun, infectious beat. We both know him and we don't. He keeps his inner most thoughts to himself, but shares just enough to make it universal and impossible to ignore. A true joy.

[@oueslatiamine3843]

those loud back vocals are representing the thoughts and feeling that he's experiencing. You can see it at 4:41 when he said "il faut bien se changer les idées... pas trop quand même", meaning "we should change our thoughts ... but not too much" , and then boom the loud vocals are back for a second . This man is a true gem!

[@Lavineisboredaf]

There’s another song that you’d probably heard of stormae it’s called alors on danse. But if you haven’t you should totally check it out!

[@arenyohanes]

Yasssssssssss Stromae yessssssss he is amazing

[@margit6521]

Stromae is... genious. He was years away from business and now he is back! I confess: I saw you reacting to him and pushed the like- button before even saw the video. Could you react to his older songs, like Formidable, Papaoutai, alors en dance, and of course his new music like Sante. Thanks for reacting !

[@kotoal]

Formidable Carmen 2 must see from Stromae Thanks

[@ellenrooms_writes9047]

Hi, I'm only finding this now. You should look up the live version of this song. He does this thing with the screens in the background and it literally blew my mind the first time I saw it. And then I saw it live myself and just... chills...

[@titus322]

Yes. Just WOW !

[@puccio5794]

Sensitivity. That's what I do appreciate in your reactions.

[@angelique2149]

Trop fort Stromae toujours autant de frison quand j’écoute cette musique

[@hprod2274]

Nice rection bro .. i like the fact that you pay attention to the little details .. keep up bro

[@iryndiil]

Can't wait to see you react to "Qu'and c'est?" if you find the movements in this music video amazing. Stromae is an anagram of the word Maestro and Stromae is definitely a Maestro. What a genius. Thanks for opening up to his music!

[@wendywong5203]

That's why he is my favourite artist

[@filipito2]

You pronounce his name as you pronounce the word 'hi' (Strom'i'). It's 'the word Maestro' chopped up in fact - for those who didn't know yet :)'

[@dina-ys6xf]

Magistral stromae👌🏽🌟since 2010

[@austriantruther4648]

Amazing video, absolutley amazing artist!

I know all Stromae songs anyway... But yeh, keep watching Stromae pleeeease, as we love watching you while you're watching Stromae. My God you are so beautiful

[@davidelliot5154]

What's up bro thank you for the reaction cadz crew for life

[@anoniemmanon23]

the name "Stromae" comes form "Maestro". and if you will lissten to his songs you will have to admit his is THE maestro.

[@a_jaafar439]

Maestro ❤️🇲🇷

[@liberanus]

Only today I've learned that STRO-MAE means MAE-STRO. It just makes totally sense.

[@JuliaRS4]

He is an artist. ARTIST. No a bad song. He stopped a few years ago because Social Media and the public made him sick. One of my fav songs is Carmen about Twitter lol

[@corentinrulot8625]

[@sandwicheater3635]

one of the best songs i have ever heard...

[@wiem3760]

Perfect reaction

[@miguelalcaino8926]

a real slap in the face...

[@ivanhenderson31]

Take a look, if you have not already at some of his earlier and most recent works. His style is unique in storytelling, lyrics, and choreography. This one is a bit more on the nose but as you pointed out is just as, if not more powerful than his others despite the small budget.

[@nikifa11]

Genius....

[@HG-if6pc]

you should check his old stuff, he is a genious, he just came back after taking a break from music for 7 years

[@drooster1219]

Ayy nice koko

[@sacbub1090]

Stromae i s a real genius. That's a fact.

[@nourasmr1]

This is the reaction I‘ve been searching for. I saw some ppl just laughing and not taking it serious.

[@luisitoputirecors1499]

Depression don't have cultures ..thank u Stromae

[@mimid.9965]

Wonderful reaction, you should try to react to a nice one "Sante" and then he have an older one.. "Quand c'est" about cancer an amazing song but check out for the video! Bonjour from Canada 😊

[@profamal]

Powerful, indeed !

[@chelau44]

Your eyes.. beautiful!

[@El-Colibri]

*Stromae is a genius, a true artist!* I'm from Morocco, it would really be nice if you react to some Moroccan songs.. I suggest a rapper called Elgrande Toto; he's the most streamed artist on Spotify in North Africa & Middle East in 2021, he also won promising African artist prize of the year.. _7elmet Ado 5_ is the last track he has dropped 🔥 so can you plz react to it 🙏

[@namusam8117]

His always has a deeper meaning to his songs 💖 it's art and the beat and melodies are enchanting. His last single was a few months ago Sante, check it out.

[@lestatmt]

If it’s the first time you should react some more vids from him. He’s a pure artist 🙏🏻

[@imfeelinggoodnl]

Yeah. Acting drunk in the streets for a video was mind-blowing to me and so good. And tragic at the same time (lyrically)

[@ТатьянаДовгополая-у7щ]

Гений.

[@albs5829]

MERCI 💔❤‍🔥

[@nathalieelizabeth]

Loved your reaction! Im from Belgium :) Hope you react also too Papaoutai and Tous le meme ♡ Greetings from spain!

[@pauline_f328]

The second syllable is pronounced like the word 'fair'

[@lindsayp.1736]

STROMAE MASTERCLASS

[@alienews0]

i think u cut it a little early and missed the epanadiplose (with the camera back in his eyes and then zoomin out), suggesting at the end of his fight with himself he is just back in his initial suggest (i.e. IMHO the fight is vain, u can't kill these ideas and the loneliness inherent to mankind) Whatev a beautiful song oh btw i'm french and yeah this song is in french, but (sadly for us french people) he ain't french but one of our belgium neighbors :)

[@gurleensandhu6455]

great reaction react to Teri Ore from Singh is King ! its a great song it is sung by shreya ghoshal you will love it !

[@olivierolivier6080]

Here’s a live performance video with English subtitles ☺️ kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y32np4x3hruqgZI Stromae is a Genius in my opinion!!

Bro if u like Stromae pls react to 'Carmen' and 'Formidable'... MASTERPIECES

Please, listen and react to the song Mr/Mme by Loic Nottet : 6 minutes long and very sincere song about mental health. It's in french with english subtitles (Loic is a young songwriter and dancer from Belgium, just like Stromae)
