C001 Cathy
Audio clip: Cathy
1 Background
First song, first hit: upon entering the world of French chanson, Alain Bellec, has recently become Alain Barrière notes ...
Alain Barrier, supported by Francis Lemarque, appeared in 1961 with the assistance of Cathy Golden Cockerel French music since 1958 organized by Europe 1 and reserved, in principle, to young creators. Any cons wait, he was selected for the finals being held in Olympia. He won the trophy (or according to other sources will be ranked 11th out of 12 see wiki), and was spotted by Bruno Coquatrix which allows him to sign a first contract with RCA. To save
Cathy, it took 3 more songs to produce an EP. Alain Barrière scraped his drawer bottoms and produced 3 songs from sketches that yesterday, before someone did (My Life, p50)
He still had some nerve to make such a Bleuette yéyé in the midst ... yéyé sweeping fashion on France, the children of Elvis were poised to take power (My Life, p51) But we must believe that the cap on when you believe!
2 Lyrics
A beautiful text, which deserves a little arre. Four stanzas of four lines into poetry a stanza that frame of five to 7 feet with rhymes in i plus a small final stanza. Several
to remarkable internal rhyme with the 6th foot
Cathy, if you loved me / the merry month of May
few search terms, which is now known that the organza is a fabric East, a kind of muslin used for evening gowns.
A text written in the conditional (if you loved ), with a nice use of simple past ( Thee that day I saw )
3 Music
A slight and a little romance Quick, sung lightly. A rhythm in the background punctuated by plucked all with a heart singing mouth closed, the tone is set. Interesting
the final Cathy, Cathy sang louder positive, followed by If you loved me more serious, more and more low and slow, as a renunciation.
4 Topics
The painful cycle of passion: we are here at the beginning of the cycle, our love has found something to love, but he does not dare declare his love and he is already suffering: Cathy, if you thought at least in my madness!
Seasons: May, with its lily in bloom ... month of the great sun
POET I climb to you my most beautiful sonnets
I'll write our love up there in heaven
5 Analysis
Cathy is the song of a teenager dare not (yet) say he loves the woman he desires. Obviously he does was not reported because it was not rejected ... Worse, if desired this woman does not see it, is the lover who prefers to take refuge in madness rather than confront the reality of the risk of a refusal, the risk of acceptance ....
I would pick for you (and not with you) bouquets of lilies done echo across the centuries to Peter when he wrote Ronsart Mignonne'll see if the rose ... Today, Cathy Song has kept all the freshness of her youth and lightness.
Like many songs of Alain Barrière This song was written by thinking about a real person, but that was not called Cathy ... Cathy was a beautiful Parisian who had a physical to Sophie Marceau. She lit up the dreams of my boyhood of its radiant beauty. My dreams only ... (My Life, p46).
