super morceau écrit par Rickie et composé par Sal Bernardi, la production de l'album est l’œuvre de Walter Becker ( co-leader de Steely Dan ) c'est dire si les guitares sont soignées ... que dire sinon que c'est un condensé d'Amérique, les espaces, le spleen, les natifs, le jazz, les filles hippies , l'alcool et l'espoir aussi ...
Amazing track ! & cherry on the cake , here's a great traduction by Bernard Bonnejean :
- Areski!
- What's the matter ?
- Did not you hear something weird?
- Yes.
- What is it ?
- It's gas. This is the gas in the apartment below. Sometimes there
leaks, so it accumulates and then if there's a spark that explodes. It's
normal !
- Ah !
And who says "explosion", says "detonation". Hence the noise that you
heard just now,
- Ah !
La la la ...
- Say?
- What?
- You do not feel burned?
- Well yeah, it's normal ! I Explained to you : there was an explosion.
- Yes.
- And the molecular agitation due to the explosion ...
- The ... what?
- The molecular agitation.
- Ah yes.
- Causes a sufficient rise in temperature to ignite surrounding
materials.
- Yes Yes.
- This is then called combustion. It's normal !
- Ah.
- You understand ?
- Yes Yes.
La la la ...
- But then ... but ...
La la la ...
- What did you want ? La la la ...
- Then I wanted to know ... All the building is on fire, is not it?
- Yes, listening. The materials that were used in the construction of
this building are very fragile. You understand ?
- Yes.
- This is normal because anyway there are only families of workers and
foreigners and some unproductive.
- Yes.
- Then the fire very easily seized materials.
- Yeah.
- It spreads. We are in the presence of a fire.
- Aaaah. a fire.
- It's normal.
- Yes Yes Yes.
- Yes ?
- Okay.
La la la ...
- Areski!
- What is it again ?
- You do not feel like it was falling, then a little ...?
- Look ... Listen ...
- Yes.
- Try to understand, it's very simple.
- Yes.
- You remember the combustion?
- Yes.
- The destruction of the building in flames?
- Yes.
- Good. It means that below, the walls and floors are gone.
- Hum.
- And that we're no longer supported by anything.
- Yeah.
- But one thing that is not supported by anything falls. It's called
gravity. It's normal !
- Aaaah, yeah.
La la la ...
- But then ... we will fall ...
- But yes.
- From the 15th floor?
- This is completely normal.
- This is gravity.
- Okay.
La la la ...
- Ares, excuse me
- What? what?
- Excuse me, I think of a thing.
- We n'va not die in a minute?
- Brigitte, you are tiring!
- Sorry.
- So it is falling.
- Yes.
- Now every body falls at a defined speed.
- Yes.
- And on reaching the ground he suffered a violent deceleration that
causes the breakdown of its various components. For example, members are
separated from the trunk.
- Yes.
- The brains gushing out of the cranium, etc.
- Yeah.
- Under these conditions of disconnection, it is clear that the
phenomenon of life can not be maintained, it is NORMAL, you understand?
- Yeah ...
