M9 Cœur de Raï en Foudre

Lyrics

[((Intro : Iconic fast heartbeat sound mixed with a sudden rapid darbouka roll, sharp Raï synth playing the aggressive main riff))] ​[Couplet 1] As he came into the window, it was the sound of a crescendo He came into her apartment, he left the bloodstains on the carpet She ran underneath the table, he could see she was unable So she ran into the bedroom, she was struck down, it was her doom ​[Refrain] [((Style : Exploding energetic chorus, heavy driving darbouka rhythm, high crystalline voice with raw emotion))] Lalla, are you OK? So, Lalla, are you OK? Are you OK, Lalla? Lalla, are you OK? So, Lalla, are you OK? Are you OK, Lalla? Lalla, are you OK? So, Lalla, are you OK? Are you OK, Lalla? Lalla, are you OK? So, Lalla, are you OK? Are you OK, Lalla? [((Vocal effect : High-pitched signature vocal cry, emotional break))] You've been hit by, you've been struck by a smooth criminal ​2. Man in the Mirror ➡️ "The Man in the River" (Version Acoustique épurée) ​[((Style de musique : Intimate acoustic Raï ballad, single solo acoustic guitar and solo voice only, no percussion, emotional vocal breaks, smooth and broken vocal quality, poetic contemporary style, 100 BPM))] ​[((Intro : Soft, delicate acoustic guitar plucking, setting a deep, emotional and melancholic atmosphere))] ​[Couplet 1] I'm gonna make a change for once in my life It's gonna feel real good, gonna make a difference, gonna make it right As I, turn up the collar on my favorite winter coat This wind is blowing my mind, I see the kids in the street Without enough to eat, who am I to be blind, pretending not to see their needs? ​[Pré-Refrain] [((Style : Voice getting smoother and slightly broken, deep poetic human-centric delivery, acoustic guitar strumming grows slightly warmer))] A summer's disregard, a broken bottle top, and a one man's soul They follow each other on the wind ya know 'Cause they got nowhere to go, that's why I want you to know ​[Refrain] [((Style : Emotional release, powerful crystalline high notes but contained, beautiful traditional ornementations over the guitar cords))] I'm starting with the man in the river I'm asking him to change his ways And no message could have been any clearer If you wanna make the world a better place, take a look at yourself and then make a change [((Vocal effect : Contained emotional sigh, deep human connection))] (Na na na, na na na, na na, na nah)
