Therion - Mon Amour Mon Ami

As a part of the Art Project related to Les Fleurs du Mal, Therion have made a video clip for Christofer's fave song on the album; Mon Amour Mon Ami.
The clip was shot at Christofer Johnsson's decadent home Villa Adulruna and shows girlfriends brutally murdering band members, female band members murdering fellow band members and lovers.

As a French listener, I felt honoured by this album. God bless you.

[@666steelwing666]

RIP Marie Laforet :( may Therion carry on with the good music

[@Vlagstaf]

I am french. I was looking for the song first sung by Marie La Forêt, then Virginie Ledoyen in « 8 femmes ». And I found this one... I am flabbergasted by this cover: the song and music are excellent, the singers are all excellents (first woman, the « latraviata » one, and the man). The clip itself reminds me a bit Hamlet (the skull) and Psycho (Hitchcok, with the stabbing in the shower). And of course, it is about destructive love, which is a side of that feeling that most humans deny, while it is actually more common than that... Bravo Therion, I didn’t know you before « Summernight City » and this one, but I will for sure look for some of your songs

[@MrLiilibu]

No habla de un amor destructivo, sino de un amor que no pudo ser y a pesar del tiempo y las personas, persiste.

[@luisalexander_fg]

Toi mon amour, mon ami Quand je rêve c'est de toi Mon amour, mon ami Quand je chante c'est pour toi Mon amour, mon ami Je ne peux vivre sans toi Mon amour, mon ami Et je ne sais pas pourquoi Je n'ai pas connu d'autre garçon que toi Si j'en ai connu je ne m'en souviens pas A quoi bon chercher faire des comparaisons J'ai un cœur qui sait quand il a raison Et puisqu'il a pris ton nom Toi mon amour, mon ami Quand je rêve c'est de toi Mon amour, mon ami Quand je chante c'est pour toi Mon amour, mon ami Je ne peux vivre sans toi Mon amour, mon ami Et je sais très bien pourquoi On ne sait jamais jusqu'où ira l'amour Et moi qui croyais pouvoir t'aimer toujours Oui je t'ai quitté et j'ai beau résister Je chante parfois à d'autres que toi Un peu moins bien chaque fois Toi mon amour, mon ami Quand je rêve c'est de toi Mon amour, mon ami Quand je chante c'est pour toi Mon amour, mon ami Je ne peux vivre sans toi Mon amour, mon ami Et je ne sais pas pourquoi

[@JudgeSpektre]

Funny how often people label a band as "one thing" and as soon as they deviate from that "norm" they're going downhill. Therion has been constantly changing over the years yet these videos are causing people to say "R.I.P Therion". i'd say these people's precious "golden age" Therion never existed. it was just one of many steps they've taken in music in their 25 years. just my thoughts.

[@AveryGuitar]

your right, they didnt become crap. they always were.

[@DustinTavo]

This is just showing the finer side of Therion, the old English fine wine side of their roots if you understand what I'm saying. Not my personal favorite, decided not to buy after one listen but I'm back again. This track in particular is really good. I think it was the language that threw me off last time.

[@animacs1]

Agreed, Christofer obviously likes different genres, and he just experiments with anything.

[@hubbabubba9695]

And Therion is probably also the only band on the planet that can make a cover album of old French pop songs and most of their fans don't understand it's a cover album. Or they understand it, but still compare it with their regular releases. In some ways Therion is more like a musical phenomena than a band. I guess that's why I'm still having a theoretical interest in the band even though I'm only enjoying listening to their early death metal stuff.

[@NocturnalMajesty66]

Awesome and beautiful, only Therion can create this kind of magnificent art

[@grimhrothgarthorbjorn6173]

People come on, it's a music video not a full scale production, it's a visual companion to a song. Nothing more and it fulfilled it's desired effect. Stop bitching about it.

At least it's not Rain of a Thousand Flames' video

All is perfect in this work- the music, the lyrics, and the video...It's a little sad and dramatic as a plot, but it's also a masterpiece! Therion are brilliant creators and performers, as always!

[@_yiggy]

I have never in my life heard anything that sounds so evil... I have no clue what it means, but sounds sinister as fuck.

[@jungwooseok9035]

Actually it means something really nice. The lyrics in french say things as "I cannot live without you" and "I only sing to you" +Marko Miljevic

[@_yiggy]

Thanks.

[@johnlong6213]

Yes, this very dark, but yet beautiful at the same time. Proving that there can be beauty in the darkness.

[@tranceparentcycle]

I think it is their use of the augmented fourth/diminshed fifth which is also known as "the devils interval" the musical interval was actually banned from music as it was considered "evil sounding and ungodly" Probably that ;)

[@tranceparentcycle]

+jamie miller It was also referred to as Diabolus in musica, the devils music, or the devil in the music.

I don't know why, but the first song of the album sounds so weird, especially if you knew the song from its original singer. Still, I love it, her voice sounds so powerful!

[@zk513]

'That girl' is Lori Lewis. One of the best thing evere happened to gothic rock. A classically trained soprano goddes. I have spoken.
