    The new songs on “Outside, It’s America” both represent America as seen through the eyes of an adopted-son, and also the reflection of France through the eyes of an increasingly Americanized Frenchman who has traveled far and wide. The opening track, “Dehors, c’est l’Amerique” (“Outside, It’s America”) kicks off with the wailing of an oncoming train, merges from railroad rattles to an easy lap steel, until finally the French lyrics begin, grounded by a comfortable honky-tonk rhythm.

    This album was recorded and produced at "8 Ball studio" in Portland by Rob Stroup (who has also worked with Tony Furtado, Portland Cello Project, Vagabond Opera, Debra Arlyn)

    Les nouvelles chansons de "Outside, It’s America" représentent à la fois l'Amérique telle qu'elle est vue à travers les yeux d'un fils adoptif, et aussi la réflexion de la France à travers les yeux d'un Français de plus en plus américanisé ayant beaucoup voyagé. La première piste, "Dehors, c’est l’Amérique", commence avec le hurlement d'un train approchant, évolue des bruits de chemin de fer à un doux son de guitare lap steel, jusqu'à ce que finalement les paroles en français commencent, soutenues par un rythme de honky-tonk confortable.

    Cet album a été enregistré et produit au studio "8 Ball" à Portland par Rob Stroup (qui a également travaillé avec Tony Furtado, Portland Cello Project, Vagabond Opera, Debra Arlyn).

    Date de sortie: 23 Mars, 20212

lyrics

LA BALADE DES ANGES
(Eric John Kaiser)

L'AUTRE MOITIE DE MOI C'EST TOI
CELLE QUI ME GARDE ICI BAS
LES FANTOMES DE MON PASSE
TU LES AS TOUS CHASSES

VOICI LA CLEF DE MON JARDIN SECRET
POUR Y PLANTER UN BEL OLIVIER
GOUTER AUX DELICES DU BONHEUR
TU ES LA BABYSITTER DE MON COEUR

YOU KNOW YOU MADE ME A BELIEVER
YOU KNOW YOU ARE MY SHINING STAR
YOU KNOW YOU ARE MY GUARDIAN ANGEL
YOU KNOW YOU ARE

A TON OREILLE JE TE RACONTES MES COMBATS
FINALEMENT JE SUIS UN MAUVAIS SOLDAT
TU ES DEVENU LE GARDIEN DE MA PAIX
LE PLUS ETONNANT C'EST QUE JE NE M'Y ATTENDAIS PAS

AVANT TOI L'AMOUR N'EXISTAIT PAS
AVANT TOI IL N'Y AVAIT QUE DES DEGATS
AVANT TOI L'AMOUR N'EXISTAIT PAS
AVANT TOI
YOU KNOW YOU MADE ME A BELIEVER
YOU KNOW YOU ARE MY SHINING STAR
YOU KNOW YOU ARE MY GUARDIAN ANGEL
YOU KNOW YOU ARE
