\u201cOh yes, we know each other well. You even tried to get my mother. Starting with her breasts. And my father\u2019s lung. D\u2019y remember them?\u201d<\/p>\n
He\u2019s touching us all, again. Stromae is back at it, with his new single \u201cQuand c\u2019est\u201d – you pronounce it like Cancer – off of his sophomore album Racine Carr\u00e9e, published two years ago.<\/p>\n
In \u201cP\u200bapaoutai?\u201d\u200b- Daddy where are you? – he evoked a childhood prived of a fatherly figure – his Rwandan father was violently murdered in the brutal 1994 Rwandan genocide<\/span><\/a>. This time, instead, the talented musician pushes his own limits: he sings about a delicate theme, shared by too many and that touched him by close, cancer.<\/p>\n Goth atmospheres, akin to Tim Burton\u2019s visionary scenographies, yet inspired by the Danish videogame Limbo<\/span><\/a>. Blacks and whites, all saturated just right. A s\u200binuous dance – choreographed by Marion Motin<\/span><\/a> – elegant yet arousing thanks to the physicality of the singer and to his surroundings, intricate brambles, recalling the epitome of fear and death, a venomous spider.<\/p>\n
