lyrics
WEST KIRBY’S MOOD
I was sitting on my own, on a bench at the cold end of the day.
After a long, long walk, I watched the sun going down behind the hills of Wales.
What was I thinking about then?
Was it life, love, or the next train to go back home?
It happens to everyone, one evening in your life, you’re sitting on your own.
After such a long walk, you taste the peace of the instant, watching the sun going down and…
What are you thinking about then?
Is it life, love, or just the next train to go back home?

LE SPLEEN DE WEST KIRBY
J’étais assis seul, sur un banc, dans le froid, à la tombée du jour
Après avoir longtemps, longtemps marché, je regardais le soleil se coucher derrière les collines du Pays de Galles
A quoi pensais-je alors ?
A la vie, à l’amour, ou au prochain train pour rentrer chez moi ?
Cela arrive à chacun de nous, un soir de ta vie tu es assis, seul
Après avoir si longtemps marché, tu savoures la paix d’un instant, en regardant le soleil se coucher…
Et à quoi penses-tu alors ?
A la vie, à l’amour, ou au prochain train pour rentrer chez toi ?

Lyrics : Bruno Gaia
Music : Bruno Gaia and Vincent Beysselance (Lucem)
Fruit de la rencontre fortuite de Bruno Gaia (chant, guitare) et de Vincent
Beysselance (chant, violoncelle, ingénieur du son), Lucem est un duo acoustique français.
Fruit of the encounter of Bruno Gaia (vocals, guitar) and Vincent Beysselance (vocals, cello, sound engineering), Lucem is a French acoustic duo....more
This sounds exactly as acoustic music with a female voice should sound like to feel ethereal and emotional. Great music that sometimes will summon memories of Kate Bush at her best. Lucem
An Autumn for Crippled Children is what you guess would be bred if some mad black-metalist-doomy-sludger married the whole Mogwai band! Brilliant! Lucem
The instrumental ensemble Dt/IG straddles the line between folk and classical, stirring acoustics augmented by sumptuous arrangements. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 29, 2023
