[@loicbarbier4490]

La plus belle chanson de Goldman et certainement la plus belle chanson française qui parle du départ. Cette chanson est tellement puissante qu'elle peut avoir plusieurs signification. Goldman l'avait écrite parce qu'il n'aimait pas que les gens chantent "ce n'est qu'un au-revoir" C'est la meilleure version,sa dernière tournée ! Et quel guitariste ! Un solo avec des croches,des doubles croches, des triolets,des bend,des changements de rythme. C'est un solo très expressif et très mélodique. Il touche l'âme et le cœur avec ses mots aussi.Cette chanson est incroyable,le texte est déchirant. C'est un chef-d'œuvre hors format et cela résume parfaitement le talent de Goldman.

C'est la pas la meilleure version. La version studio est bien plus puissante, du moins à goût.

This song is a strong memory for me. I've lost my grandfather when this song passed in the radio's car, and I saw my father cries for the first time of my life. My grandfather was his father-in-law, and yet, that was the first time ever that I've seen my father crying that much for someone. Strong song, and strong signification for a lot of people. Years later, when I've lost my second grandfather, I cried because of "Forever Young". Song is so universal, and so powerful, this is the reason I became a musician.

I was feeling nostalgic, looking up Daniel Balavoine videos and stumbled on your channel. Went down a rabbit hole! It’s been so fun watching you discover my all time favorite: Jean-Jacques Goldman. I am French but moved to NJ in 1986 as a teenager. So picture it - I was listening to JJG and Balavoine’s “tous les cris les SOS” one day and the next I was in the land of teased hair and fringed jackets a.k.a BonJovi world! LOL! BUT JJG came to NY in 1989 - played a small club and I got to be standing right in front of the stage while he was selling out stadiums in France! Anyway… you also discovered Johnny. My parents’idol since they were teenagers. I reflected on it when he died and realized the first 28 years of my life barely had a day when I didn’t hear Johnny on my parent’s stereo! Your French is quite good. And it’s not always easy understanding JJG - lots of metaphors! Wish my son would venture to speak it as much as you do. Thanks for the fun and your appreciation of our icons :)

[@onyxKL]

"Puisque" in this context is more translated like 'since': Since the shadow is winning [...] Since it's elsewhere that your heart will beat more freely, and since we love you too much to keep you against your will... since you are leaving...

Very nice text.....

[@sylvielacouture7753]

"Puisque” is used when the reason is logical and obvious. Example: I speak English because I'm American. ➡︎ The main difference is that with “because”, the interlocutor doesn't know the cause, whereas with “since” he already does.

[@ggousier]

Et aussi parce que le français est une langue toute en nuance et bien plus subtile que l'anglais. D'ailleurs c'est pour ça que j'ai pas mal de difficultés avec l'anglais que je trouve parfois trop brut de décoffrage. 😉

[@TheAngele8]

@@sylvielacouture7753 Puisque a une implication bien plus forte que Parce que.

[@jclerondeau2811]

"Since" est peut-être plus approprié que "Because" dans ce cas.

[@pouchmi1]

Goldman is the boss in France, " Le Patron"

[@XiaoVeen]

Puisque and parce que are almost the same, you can say parce que 😉 Goldman plays also the piano on some songs, and violin as you know.

[@jordanmorel287]

In French, "puisque" and "parce que" are two conjunctions used to express a cause, but they differ slightly in their usage and nuance. Here are the main distinctions: 1. "Parce que": Reason explained or justified: Used to provide an explanation or to answer a question about the cause of something. Explicit cause: Indicates a cause that needs to be explained or justified, often in response to "why?". Example: "Je ne viens pas parce que je suis malade." → "I'm not coming because I'm sick." Question: "Pourquoi es-tu resté à la maison ?" → "Why did you stay home?" Answer: "Parce que j'avais un rendez-vous important." → "Because I had an important appointment." 2. "Puisque": Obvious or known cause: Used when the cause is already known or considered obvious by the speaker and their interlocutor. Implicit or accepted cause: Highlights a cause that doesn’t need detailed explanation because it is already understood. Example: "Puisque tu es là, aide-moi à porter ce sac." → "Since you're here, help me carry this bag." "Puisque tout le monde est d'accord, passons au vote." → "Since everyone agrees, let’s move on to the vote."

[@TerabKult]

a crying song

[@stefblt5771]

The lyrics can fit for a lot of situations but he wrote this song to end his concerts, like a farewell to his audience. Please listen to "Nuit" with Carole Fredericks and Michael Jones, it's a beautiful song! (Carole sings in English in it). The MV is in black and white, so pretty.

[@richthi]

Hi D, Congratulations for your react ! Indeed, this was Jean-Jacques' last tour before his retirement. He performed more than 125 concerts during this tour for almost a million spectators. It is indeed "puisque" and not "parce que", and this is important, because in French, "puisque" is used to give a logical and obvious reason : a reason that imposes itself on us as a natural consequence. In the other hand, "parce que" is used to give a justification, an explanation for something that is not obvious. By using “puisque”, Jean-Jacques therefore wishes to explain the departure with reasons that people already know deep down. He expresses what everyone is thinking, without saying it. And regarding the guitar, it has been JJG's specialty since the beginning: he can play all styles of guitar, acoustic, electric, folk rock, etc. He also plays the piano and violin very well. “Puisque tu pars” is the song he has played at the end of all his concerts since he released it. It is a very emotional song that many associate it with different things. Everyone can find a life experience in which they recognize themselves in this song. But JJG simply wanted to explain that leaving is not necessarily something bad, that you have to know how to accept it, and that something positive can come out of it. A perfect song to close a concert. If you like this song, take a look at the instrumentation, because this version is very stripped down. You can find an older version with all instrumentation here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gF7XmJivqrR7bbs Take care

[@XiaoVeen]

[@richthi]

@@XiaoVeen yes sorry for that, it's an old video !

[@XiaoVeen]

@@richthi For sure, on mine too the image is bad. Above all, I try to provide the versions with English subtitles (for Goldman it would be a shame not to understand), but then it's good to also provide links to other versions. I like the instrumentation of the one you gave, which is more sophisticated.

[@richthi]

@@XiaoVeen some moments are in HD, but others are reconstructed, so not as good, but it is the best quality that exists. It was a concert from 1989... This live version is the best one of this fantastic song : the last guitar solo is incredible

[@XiaoVeen]

The guitar solo seems the same for me... But whatever the quality, the important thing is the emotion. And everyone feels it in their own way !

[@j.cberlin1384]

One of the greatest songs ever written .JJ wrote it after loosing his yongest son ,as one of the lines says " some pains are so heavy that you can only cry inside". I 'm only disappointed in the translation , it doesn't reflect very accuratly the original words and several lines have been lost in translation...

[@pierrickcluzeau1466]

« Puisque » est employé quand la raison est logique et évidente. Exemple : Je parle anglais puisque je suis Américain. ➡︎ La différence principale est qu'avec « parce que », l'interlocuteur ne connaît pas la cause alors qu'avec « puisque » il la connaît déjà.

[@arthurflou4250]

Merci pour la question cela me permet de me replonger dans la grammaire Française. on utilise "par ce que": quand dans la phrase on répond à la question par quoi ou pourquoi? on utilise " puisque" Le subordonnant puisque, plus subjectif que parce que, permet quant à lui d'introduire une explication considérée comme évidente, éventuellement déjà connue des interlocuteurs ou interlocutrices. " Puisque tu l'aimes tant, tu n'as qu'à la rejoindre!" Thank you for the question, it allows me to get back into French grammar. we use "because": when in the sentence we answer the question with what or why? we use "since" The subordinate since, more subjective than because, allows us to introduce an explanation considered obvious, possibly already known to the interlocutors. “Since you love her so much, you just have to join her!”

Puisque tu pars: since you're leaving.

[@thaeros]

it's really puisque tu pars the translation might be the same in english f" because you are leaving" but it's the feeling that is diferent see "parce que tu pars" as because you are leaving" in the way "oh you don't finish your food because you are leaving?" it's just a fact but "puisque" with the idea of " damn" like if you was saying "Oh your kid had an accident... i will put your food in the fridge because you are leaving!" so the words " because you are leaving" may be the same words but some have more " weight" than the others! sorry to not be able to explain it better but si "puisque" has the " more weight" version! I don't know if i'm understandable!

[@kikoo2023]

😊❤😊

[@XiaoVeen]

There have been different versions as to who the song is dedicated to: his son, his lover or even his half-brother who was murdered... Goldman explained the song only 24 years later in an interview. It's a message addressed to the public at the end of each concert before parting, to tell the fans that it's not sad, everyone goes their own way and they will find him next time. Obviously the lyrics are not very consistent with this situation, but that's the initial idea, and not anyone in particular.

[@LetsChillPage]

Mmm certainement, on peut envisager de multiples interprétations, comme dans beaucoup de chansons. Quoi qu'il en soit, le thème du deuil, par exemple, me semble remis en cause par certains passages qui parlent explicitement d'une personne vivante : « puisque c'est ailleurs qu'ira mieux battre ton cœur », « si tu te trahissais, nous t'aurions tout à fait perdu », « que nous t'envions en silence », « garde en mémoire cet au revoir », etc. Idem dans le cadre d'une rupture, le « nous » dans ces mêmes phrases parait alors incongru. Dans le contexte d'une fin de concert, cela peut presque fonctionner. Néanmoins, cela reste, une fois de plus, un peu bancal. Ce n'est pourtant pas son style d'écriture (bancale). En plus, les paroles paraissent moins puissantes, finalement. En revanche, elles s'adaptent parfaitement avec le départ d'un enfant de chez ses parents pour voler de ses propres ailes. Ce sont les recommandations de ces derniers avant qu'il ne franchisse la porte pour d'autres horizons. Ce message d'amour est sublime, d'ailleurs. Paix, les gens. ☮👈😎

[@XiaoVeen]

J'ai surtout l'impression qu'il n'y a pas d'interprétation globale de la chanson. La partie "nous" et la partie "je" ne correspondent pas. Dans des paroles on peut prendre un thème et le décliner, c'est aussi un signe de subtilité. Dans mon impression personnelle, le "nous" c'est un groupe d'amis proches (pour des parents ça serait plus fort et plus lyrique), le "je" c'est une histoire sentimentale, qui complète la première partie pour dire que dans tous les cas un départ est douloureux mais qu'il doit être accepté.

[@LetsChillPage]

@@XiaoVeen Oui, effectivement, le groupe d'amis, ou la famille peut aussi fonctionner. Pour les autres cas, je reste dubitatif. En revanche, « pour des parents, ça serait plus fort et plus lyrique ». Je trouve personnellement, au contraire, que le message est puissant et finalement rempli d'amour et de douleur rentrée. Il faut se résigner à « l'insupportable » parce que finalement, il n'y a pas d'autres choix. C'est le déroulement normal de la vie. On y est préparé. Pourtant, bien que l'on sache depuis longtemps que ce jour arrivera, son acceptation est une autre paire de manches. Le fameux « puisque » sous-entend, sans jamais le dire, que la résignation est extrêmement douloureuse pour ceux qui regardent partir la personne à qui ce message est destiné. C'est un véritable déchirement.

[@XiaoVeen]

C'est sûr que ça n'a rien à voir avec son frère, j'ai cité ça parce que cette interprétation a existé. À propos des parents, en fait ça dépend si le fils a 16 ans ou 35 ans 😁
