Lyrics
La route chante,
Quand je m'en vais.
Je fais trois pas,
La route se tait.
La route est noire,
À perte de vue.
Je fais trois pas,
La route n'est plus.
Sur la marée haute,
Je suis monté.
La tête est pleine,
Mais le coeur n'a pas assez.
Mains de dentelle,
Figure de bois,
Le corps en brique,
Les yeux qui piquent.
Mains de dentelle,
Figure de bois.
Je fais trois pas
Et tu es là.
Sur la marée haute,
Je suis monté.
la tête est pleine,
Mais le coeur n'a pas assez.The road is singing
When i set out
I take three steps…
The road grows silent
The road is dark
As far as i can see
I take three steps…
The road is gone
I climbed up
On the high tide
The head is full
But the heart wants more
Hands of lace
Wooden face
Body of brick
Eyes that sting
Hands of lace
Wooden face
I take three steps…
And you are there
I climbed up
On the high tide
The head is full
But the heart wants more
Notes
This was my first experience with Sweet Charity and certainely I had been nervous about it and about my capacity to follow someone's request. Luckily for me, the bidder has been incredibly understanding about the song and subjects choice, the creative process and the delays to make the vid, so I hope that the vid delivers enough considering.
I initially offered myself at the charity to push me to do something different, but I don't think I was successful in the regard ;)
Desmond is my favourite character on the show, so vidding him and his link to Penny felt right. But soon did I realise how hard it was to
vid someone with such non-linear storylines. His story is a mess, of flashbacks and fast forwards, or being at 2 places in time at once. I remember talking to Milly about this. So I chose to mirror this mess, and try to make sense of it to show who this character was and what he was going through and hoping for.
External footage comes from "Deep Blue". This was triggered by the feeling of the song, the poetry universe of the lyrics, show, and storylines as well, as well as Desmond's spirit, the fight against himself to win this boat race, the sea-world that surrounds him.
