FLAMME JUMELLE

Les jours défilent
Sans que rien ne change
Mes mots s’éclipsent
Pour peindre le manque incessant
De ton feu qui chavire
Et de l’Ailleurs qui nous attend

Échappée d’une autre heure
J’entends ta voix familière
Noyée dans un violent
Silence dépeuplé
Éloigné de ton coeur
Lors de matins glacés
Figés dans le temps

La nuit m’enserre
Tout oublier
Pour enfin me souvenir
J’erre sans pouvoir
Retrouver mon chemin
M’enfonçant
Dans toujours plus de nuit

Ta main contre la mienne
Les mémoires incandescentes
De ton visage rieur
Et tout pour pouvoir les revivre

  • @Asthrakys
    Alcest soothes us when the world is in flames. Thank you.
  • @sroka1
    This song make me feel nostalgic. It is like remembering a memory of the past that never existed.
  • @iansterling9150
    Beautiful, elegant, heavy, and subtly playful at the same time. That’s why Alcest stands out and continues to create great music. Great shots here and the dancers are amazing.
  • @weltenbrandt545
    Remembering the times when I was 18, discovering Alcest, now turning 31, the magic of Neige's music always remains the same!
  • @warlockdruid
    That chorus riff is gonna be stuck in my head for the rest of the day. In a good way.
  • Sometimes I listen to Alcest and the only thing I can think is "HOW ?", how can they create masterpieces like this ?!!!!
  • @maruki___
    I hope you find yourself someone that looks at you the same way Alina looks at Coralie at 2:32
  • English translation The days go by Nothing changes My words slip away To paint the incessant lack Of your capsizing fire And the Elsewhere that awaits us Escape from another hour I hear your familiar voice Drowned in a violent Depopulated Silence Away from your heart On icy mornings Frozen in time The night surrounds me Forget it all
  • @JongiB96
    I can't stop watching this video. It's not just the choreography, but the way their facial expressions carry the burden of the story/song. Amazing work all around.
  • @Greenenigma420
    This is one of the most beautiful things I've heard in a long time
  • @s.c8949
    It's crazy to see how far Alcest have come and see people who are just discovering them now :)
  • @coldmetal2668
    This music video evokes a sense of conflict, love and passion.. fighting our demons and struggling but always holding onto the ones we love, that is humanity. Not social media and politics and everything else distracting us. It's pure and what makes us human, the struggle, the love, feeling alive..
  • I had the great pleasure and honor of working on this music video with Kendy Ty and the dancers : something tainted with nostalgia, melancholy and onirism to go along with the beautiful melody and lyrics carried by this song. I'm really happy for this release and I sincerely hope you will enjoy it as much as I did. Thanks a lot to Neige and to Alcest for your trust on this beautiful project ⛰🌄
  • @fafolaw
    Thank you for making me feel like my soul was healing for 5 minutes and 22 seconds, I can't wait for the whole album.
  • @ghashphoring957
    It's a tough time for me to keep myself alive but i think i've to live once more for alcest's music art 😇🙏🏿
  • @MrAlexandrepk
    Today is my wife birthday, and you guys give us this beautiful gift! Thank you for making such great work in all these years
  • @naturesdose
    Neige said : Despite its more accessible vibe, this song is actually the most personal song of the album for me. 'Flamme Jumelle' which means 'Twin Flame ' is about the idea of loss in general and the difficulty of coping with the absence of someone you deeply loved. It could be a family member, a friend, or a partner. On a more spiritual level, the title refers to the possibility that certain souls are connected in this life and beyond, and that separation is temporary and just a mortal concept.
  • @blueface
    Alcest never misses, forever one of my favorite bands. When I was 14 they had a few snippets of Souvenirs D’un Autre Monde up on MySpace. I remember ripping them and listening to them everyday and grabbed the album as soon as preorders went up. Today at 31 years old, Alcest still hits the spot and I will continue to support them for as long as they’re around. This track has been on repeat all damn day!
  • @dalovian
    This is pure Synergy. The choreography adds new dimension to the music which is a masterpiece by itself. Truly a heart-opening experience, it’s been years since I have encountered something this powerful. Thank you so much for this.
