The French press have described Amandine Bourgeous as a rocker, and now I understand why. Her song “L’enfer et moi”, which you can now listen to on Spotify, goes heavy on the guitar riffs and drums. Anger seems to give the song its rhythm.

Amandine has also released a snippet of her official music video and it’s seriously dark. She runs around a mansion like a crazy drunk aristocrat, tortures a voodoo doll (which looks like a big dead rat) and just happens to have a man tied up in a chair. Reminds me of last Saturday night. Anyway, check out the song below and let us know what you think!

Video extract:

The full song:

French lyrics

Tu m’as mise K.O. d’entrée
Il faut croire que j’ai bien aimé
Liens de cuir et mains de soie

Qui blessent, tuent et dans quel port

Jusqu’à faire rougir l’aurore
Tu m’as jeté comme un sort

Je vais te faire l’enfer
De là où tu te perds
Regarde bien derrière
Et ce sera moi

Tu m’as fait pleurer à vif
Mon cou porte encore ta griffe
J’aimais échanger de peau

Nos limites c’est un classique
J’aimais nos amours toxiques
Celles qui font que tout est beau

Je vais te faire l’enfer
De là où tu te perds
Regarde bien derrière

Je vais te faire l’enfer
De là où tu te perds
Regarde bien derrière
Et ce sera moi

J’vais te faire l’enfer
Tu vas manquer d’air
À moins une, à moins que
On s’retrouve à deux

À moins qu’il nous faille
Renoncer aux batailles
(Je vais te faire l’enfer)

J’vais te faire l’enfer
Tu vas manquer d’air
À moins une, à moins que
Qu’on s’retrouve à deux

À moins qu’il nous faille
Renoncer aux batailles
(Je vais te faire l’enfer)

J’vais te faire l’enfer
Tu vas manquer d’air
À moins une, à moins que
Qu’on s’retrouve à deux

À moins qu’il nous faille
Renoncer

Je vais te faire l’enfer

Live performance on a talk show (after 3 minutes of chat).

I love it! Raw, angsty and completely inappropriate for Eurovision! If Amandine gives a great live performance she could do well with the juries, but I can’t see this being too popular with the public unfortunately.

This version feels a bit thin to me, but I expect it to be more effective live.
It’s all there, it just needs to pull out the stops and turn it up to eleven.
A great performance could be awesome, but an average one will flop.

Another one that just does nothing for me. I find it banal and forgettable.

I have lost all faith in the French doing well. I find this year’s entry a little bland and would be curious about it live. I expect this to follow the current trend and come in the bottom 5 in the final.

Well, i think the video really translate what the lyrics are about… she’s full of anger and she’s trying to make some black magic, who knows if santeria, but i do love all the vibe, she should wear a black lace dress in eurovision… not all the singers have to be like Cascada or Krista Siegfrieds, really reminds me of Patricia Kaas and the whole dark vibe!
