I’ve just come across this YouTube video. It’s Babylon Circus opening the Prix Europa 2009 with Perdu from their album La Belle Étoile.
I was glad to see this as they had opened with this song in London on the 26th October and it was an absolute stormer which set the tone for the whole gig. For some reason they didn’t open with it in Bristol last night (31st October).
The sound on the video is very good even if the introduction is somewhat understated and the rows of seated audience members look a bit lifeless.
I’d like to see if I can find more footage of this concert to see what became of the crowd after a few songs. I do hope they were allowed out of their seats!
On s’est perdu à se chercher (everyday), perdu à se chercher (far away)
Si loin dans nos pensées (everyday), on s’est perdu (far away), à se chercher
Si loin dans nos pensées (everyday), on s’est perdu (far away), à se chercher
We got lost looking for ourselves (everyday), lost looking for ourselves (far away)
So deep in our thoughts (everyday), we got lost (far away) looking for ourselves
So deep in our thoughts (everyday), we got lost (far away) looking for ourselves
