"If you want to know a people, you have to listen to their music"

- Plato (Greek philosopher) -

Saint-Lazare train station in Paris,

while waiting for the train to Rouen, I discovered the "Piano in the station". A great initiative for musicians & travelers who become listeners for a piece of music, a song. I didn't know it.

... "there are some who will still say that I am the Norman who arrives in the capital, I feel it" ...

Proof, if any, that it is always good to get out of your comfort zone.

A very pleasant moment of sharing, the discovery of talents still anonymous. These artists have fun, we let ourselves be charmed by their talent.

The moment is magic when users pressed for time take the time to stop and listen to them.

 

Unfortunately, I was only able to film a few seconds of this singer; my dexterity to use my digital to film is questioned, I agree!

 

Thanks to this discovery, I went to YouTube and heard great talents there.

Un instantané de bonheur

Before realizing that I could film, I took some pics, very annoyed at first though  not being able to take with me a memory, even a brief one, to listen to.

I loved how people gathered, smiled, talked without knowing each other.The charm worked thanks to this handsome & talented young man.

Proof, if any was needed, that music softens manners.

Thank you for this moment of grace.

"When day breaks"

I never knew how to live without music, I even noticed that certain songs are linked to happy or painful events in our lives.

With the video opposite I combined it with my unexplained "passion" for the sky.

Bathed in Greek music that I love, we can hear on this video Αντώνις Ρέμος (Antonis Remos), who sings " Λένε " (they say).

Needless to say, I'm a fan of him and that despite the years gone by, I remain dazzled by his concert in Paros .... only happiness!

"Sky show"

In this short video, it is the goddess of Greek song who does me the honor of accompanying my photos.

I am a fan (also) of " Χάρις Αλεξίου " (Harris Alexiou), a  great Lady, who sings here " Θεός αν είναι " (If there is a god).

Even today, I still feel closer to Greek song than to French ... I won't change at my age ...

I totally fell for Rag'n'Bone Man.

I heard it the first time without knowing who he was with "Human".

It was great to hear this beautiful song with text. I didn't know what he looked like and I loved the character even more, his sweet look in this big guy's body.

I wanted to adopt it. Something of mine, when I love, I want to adopt ... I'm no longer young enough to pretend to put them in my bathtub ...

I bought his album, all the titles are superb.

Rag'n'Bone Man is a genius.
