Welcome to our Stromae L'enfer reaction!!! This is our latest video reaction from our new music reaction channel Beer’s & Bars. Here we listen, react, and breakdown bars while enjoying some of our favorite beers. Today we extended our stay in France as we witness excellent cinematography in reference to Stromae's creativity!! This almost feels like something is possessing him in this video and he is trying to break loose of it!! He tells a great story and we definitely look forward to hearing more from this amazing artist as we continue on our Stromae Journey!!

You guys are in for a journey going down the Stromae rabbit hole. Just know that all of his MV's will leave you flabbergasted like this. The guy is pure genius and in total control of every move he makes and yeah he does play several. His concerts are epic (I've seen him perform live 4 times now. Formidable, Fils de joie, Tous les memes and Quand c'est should be next on the list I feel.
Excited to check them out - what we've seen so far are tiny pieces of art 🔥
Oh yeah, the live show is next level. I can’t believe he has the entire thing uploaded to his channel for free. Artists never do that, at least not permanently.
I’m so down that rabbit hole, justo intrigued by everything he does
I was about to recommend them fils de joie
I am down this rabbit hole for 2 weeks now and no plans of surfacing yet.
It is too bad you don't understand his words, because Stromae is actually telling a story about the struggle he had with depression ... and every single word in his song , and every gesture in his video has a meaning ... He's so talented in bringing his personal feelings into a song and turn into a worldclass act.
We started pre reading the lyrics for his videos ✌️🍻
@@BeersBars it looks like you did not understand a word of the song. Maybe less beer ?
@@EmmanuelMIGNOTAs someone who knows French (as a second language) it takes me a while to pick up on what he's saying even after I read the lyrics in both French and English. If they don't even speak the language what do you expect?
In the first chorus I just see person who is so depressed and having a panic attack. It brought tears to my eyes. It literally feels like you can’t breathe.
And the lyrics are about suicidal thoughts ...
Well, the song's nane is The Hell
Was lucky enough to see this dude live in San Francisco last month. Easily the best concert I’ve ever been to. Dude is actually a God tier performer haha
That's awesome 🙏🍻
Yes he is, I saw him live here in Belgium in July, sooooooo great
Broo!! I cant believe I missed his last performance here in the USA for the year.. man !! I bet it was amazing
You should see the lyrics, it goes really deep about his time when felt suicidal and the hard things hes been through
We watched it with subs!!! ✌
Indeed...the sound is not even half of the emotional ride if you understand the words❤
Hé is in charge from a to z, I actually saw a documentary about his first album which he practically produced on a small midi keyboard ableton and some plug-ins. The special thing about him is that he makes all your senses work for it, he definitely is a master of all art forms.
Yeah I think we're starting to see that!!
Can you give me a link to the documentary you mention? I’d love to see it. Thanks!
His compatriot, Loic Nottet, is also a Master of art : singer, songwriter, composer, choreographer, dancer, costumes designer, writer, actor.. he created a short musical named Candy for Halloween and he made everything... he is 26 now and his 2 albums Selfocracy and Sillygomania, in english, are amazing. Now, he sings in french and I'm waiting for his 3rd album....
I've been a legit fan for only two weeks to date and I am totally obsessed! Don't know why I never heard of Stromae or his music before that but I'm so glad I watched him on Stephen Colbert. Found his music on UA-cam the next day, just 'cause, and fell down the Stromae rabbit hole (like "Djee" commented) hard! So happy I saw him at Madison Square Garden on Tuesday. Omg!! I get why his concerts, especially in Europe, are sold out up to May on 2023 and going fast. He is cheeky, witty, smart, funny, honest, beautiful, a super creative producer, kind, etc. The coolest thing about that is, I want to believe, that the people he surrounds himself are like that too! Dude is really blowing up my world right now!!
Yeah he is amazing, glad to hear you got to see him Live!!! ✌️🍻
Yup! Thanks it's so bad I'm considering saving for a trip to Europe to see him again! But I'd have to get that ticket now, lol! Looking forward to which song you guys do next. I'd suggest his first big hit, Alors on Danse. Not sure if you did this one already. But, really it doesn't matter. I'm having fun watching you guys experience him. I'm not alone. Merci ! :-)
@@estherreid2387 LOL You make me laugh. Like you, I fell down the Stromae rabbit hole (back in January when I saw his performance of L"enfer on the French news). He just killed me with that performance. I still haven't recovered from how raw it was. You know what happened next. Each video was exceptional. I regret that, at the time, I didn't listen to a Belgian coworker who told me about him when he was touring with Racine Carree. The video of that concert is absolutely stunning. Best I've ever seen, without discussion. It's a piece of art, not a concert. I just saw him in DC, but an hour and a half is not enough! I'm planning to go see him again when I visit my family in France. We are lucky to be part of his adventure.
I also discovered him because Stephen Colbert, sure I have listened alors en Dans before. But he's so captivating. Have you seen the NPR tiny desk concert? I really enjoyed it
You are great, very empathetic, you have taste. You do not understand what he sings, but you feel it. This work of Stromae (Maestro) is, in my opinion, his masterpiece. He sings against his depressions, against his inner demons that -powerlessly- won't leave him alone. No fiction, but (past) reality. THAT makes it, apart from his upper league as an artist and musician, this incredibly moving masterpiece. You can already tell: I love him :-)
I like more and more
Stromae is a genius. He produces most of his beats. He worked 9 years on this album until was perfect. When you finish with Stromae i would recommend you WOODKID
No he did not work 9 years on this album. Bro came back out of retirement after 7 years, a bad reaction to malaria pills he caught while performing in africa and mental issues.
Would love some reactions to Woodkid too, especially The Golden Age x Embers.
I don't know if anyone has already said this but he also did an interview on the news that turned into a live performance of this song. After he talked about this subject, the calls for psychological consultations exploded in France and Belgium and the WHO thanked him for addressing the subject of mental disorders
That's awesome ✌️🍻
Saw his show yesterday 🤯🤯🤯 no words to express how amazing it was, only the feeling of my heart exploding and my feet and hips moving to the groove. This song is about his struggle with negative and distructive thoughts and how to comite suicide might be the only way out. Such deep and personal lyrics yet everyone connects to it. ❤❤❤❤
Thats awesome hope to see him live one day!!! Thanks for sharing ✌️🍻
yo me too ! I watched him in Boston and that was a trip !
Saw him at a sold out show in Madison Square Garden last month, absolutely incredible and so much fun. One of the greatest artists of our day.
His wife is his creative director. They are both amazing 😊
And also his stylist
Coralie Barbier
I keep coming back to this video because seeing your reaction to the first time that chorus drops was my reaction to hearing the first time. I wish I could show you guys the stems for this song. The little production and arrangement things he does in this song (especially in the chorus) are so freaking cool and powerful. He does all these little things that are off putting on a subliminal level that are meant to make you feel uneasy, but not know why, just like how an anxiety attack feels. It’s incredible. Just wanted to share that with you. lol.
Stromae is Belgian, just like me, I am so proud of him, been a fan for many years, sooooo glad he's finally getting international recognition
Thanks you guys for reviewing this awesome track
I suspect time will be very good to him, too. Tends to weed out the trash and only keep the great artists, which he definitely is. Everything about his career inspires respect, even if one doesn't like his music that much. A rare artist, with a vision and a spine. He's going to be shining for a while, I think.
@@Cynry Plus his childhood wasn't that quite and he still managed to reach this level
@@Loup12358 isn't that how great artiste are made, anyway? 😅 Not that it made things any easier for him, but yeah,suffering and creativity are weirdly linked ...
@@Cynry That's a lil bit cliché😂
@@Loup12358 Sure, it's a cliche. But among all the cliches, I feel that's one that often verifies... I think it's in last season of Rick and Morty, where they said "creativity and mental illness are closely related" or something like that. Not that this show is a reference or anything, I just found funny how they phrased it. But yeah, like, my favorite artist is bipolar and had massive issues. It's...common
There is a video of him showing how he has composed song. Literally live. He's so incredible.
He is so much more than a rapper. We had the great Jacques Brel. Now we have Stromae. He has the voice, the lyrics, the dance moves, the video.
Make sure to check out our playlist and welcome to the Buzz Fam ✌️🍻
Our Belgian genius! I'm not taking that bet with you cause his live shows and (live) tv performances are just on another level. Perfectly detailed and just breathtaking.
Yes we're intrigued!!!
Possibly one of the most complete artists; sonically, visually, the depth in his lyrics...simply amazing.
I strongly recommend checking out the song "Quand C'est" (a wordplay for "cancer")
I'm going from Scotland to see him in Belgium, England, Amsterdam and then France. A true master.
I bet it’s gonna be a great experience!! Enjoy!!!
@@BeersBars Thank you so much!
You should see the performance he did of this at Coachella. It’s up on his UA-cam channel, and it’s incredible.
He also has the stems for this song available on his website for free, and listening to the isolated vocal gives me chills. You can hear his voice shaking while he’s singing the last line. Sounds like he’s holding back tears.
Stormae is a sensation and he is in my opinion by far the BEST artist of the last 10 years!! Effortless singing and deep meanings!! Phenomenal!!🥰👏👏
Fun fact, Stromae is litteraly the best artist in the last 10 years while being absent in 7 of them 😂
I love Stromae, i think he is indeed an artist and a master, but also check out Dimash, S.O.S for example. Dimash's singing is next level.
When I discovered Stromae, I was like ok... there is musicians/singers and then there is Stromae. He's unique, creative, poetic, while all being simple and understandable for everyone. It's just amazing. You should check the clips "tous les même" and "Fils de Joie". And also "Cancer", "Carmen".... well al of them actually, they're all amazing... :D
for a while I couldn't listen to this song without crying, serious emotion
that glitch sound is amazing
and the Bulgarian choir in the background
Stromae introduced this song on french national TV as a suicide prevention, on live in the Middle of the interview. Suicide is in the top 5 of causes of death in France (sorry 4 my english)
We appreciate the background information 🙏🍻
Stromae writes, produces, and performs all of his songs. Stro-Mae…. Mae-stro. Maestro!
ua-cam.com/video/iDGvWX-tFGM/v-deo.html
His entire live show is up on UA-cam. It's the greatest show of all time. Definitely check that out!
He's holding a dialogue with his mental state. - It's pure genius! Deeply moving.
If you guys haven't done so already, check out Stromae's Tiny Desk Concert... He performs with his band and sounds just as great as he sounds on his recordings. You also get to hear him speak in English and he is quite the charmer! His last song in performed acapella...Just amazing!
It's on the list for sure ✌️🍻
More Stromae please! His latest album is one of my favorites from this year, the sounds are incredible. If you want to see him live, watch L'enfer live at Coachella for example, it's amazing
We may need to check that out indeed!!! 🍻
Such a powerful song - he hits the nail on the head with depression and suicide.
your reaction tells me that your souls are deeply found of him - you understand his music❤️ greetings from swizerland (in april he will preform there👍🏻)
Thank you and we hope you got tickets to that show! ✌️🍻
3:40 : Stromae is a beatmaker and really good musician , of course in studio he calls other people for having good song.
In concert, he’s insane. And the lyrics are well written, poetics and telling a whole story.
He’s insane and so talented !
This song is about his huge struggle with depression. The music is just sooo good. And his lyrics are just next level. He loves plays on words..
Drinking some belgian beers(delirium) while listening to Stromae.. Legends.🔥
🙏🍻
My favorite song. Its Formidable.. damn that song his good
Me too. I absolutely love that song. That's when I knew I was watching someone really special. No one sings like that, these days (the closest I can remember is Jacques Brel). How he acts the part of the character is just heartbreaking. When I first saw it, I would get a tear in my eye at the end when he is almost sobbing. You just know this character and you feel his pain. Masterful.
He needed to do everything backwords...yes he dit this backwords. I was amazed when i saw an interview with him and he told that. Do you know how hard that is?...he is amazing.
This song is called Hell (L'enfer). He talk about those negative/suicidal thoughts that make him live through hell. He launched live on French national TV, and afterwards, thousands of people called the helpline!
Hello again, he does everything... Every single thing of sound is made by him
Love seeing other people discovering him and LOVING him!
Tous les memes is also a great song, story and mv! Check it out!
Just saw Stromae at the Anthem in DC. Worth the wait! Amazing concert! Wait till you guys watch Formidable, Quand C'est, Carmen, and if you feel bold, watch the ENTIRETY of the Racine Carree concert (free on UA-cam). A MASTER PIECE. I so wish I had seen it live. But even as a video, it's easily the best concert I have ever seen. Stromae is on another level. Can't wait to see what he will come up with next (hopefully not in another 7 years :-) ) Thanks for doing these reactions. Really enjoying them.
Stromae is my latest addiction... He's just awesome!
Facts 🍻
He plays these instrumentals associated to his songs (orchestrator savante). Although he now has a band, I recommend watching his live concert performances on UA-cam!
I’ve seen him a few times on stage. It’s worth it. This particular album and this song “L’enfer” is so moving, referring to his depression and as you noted in the video to his inner demons.
His shows are awesome! I just saw him in San Francisco it was mesmerizing.
Im so glad you picked up on this one, its possibly my fave of his! The beat is pure UK, and the way he fmatched his syllables, then steps up double on each verse til it seems impossible.. brev.
He's known to do everything in music by himself
The main thing which makes me apreciate stromae so much, eventhough i'm absolutely not a fan of the overall genre of music, is that his lyrics are not just words to suit the rhythm of the song. He is actualy talking about something and the music reflects the words perfectly. He is not just a musician, he is a poet, and a good one at that.
He’s not a rapper he is artist in every sense of the word❤
Just saw him 2 nights ago at Madison Square Garden and it was AWESOME!!!
He plays every damn thing , does every damn thing , from writing, composing, producing everything !
I had the pleasure of seeing him live once, that was like 8 years ago. I still think about that concert
The live version is even better and the performance amazing with images of thunder being him. Go watch the Coachella performance.
I loved watching you discover Stromae's genius, he's a phenomenon!
color of the Backdrop (green) represents the color of his eyes. Eyes is the window to the soul. Strome spectacular
He does the instrumentals. He composed it indeed.
He writes, sings and makes he's on music. His name Stromae is actually maestro and Mosaert. He also does he's own videos and he Hase a clothing line. That song was about a period that he was depressed. It's been 7 years that he was stopt with making music. But after 7 years he made his come back.
More Stromae please guys. You should react to “fils de joie” or “formidable”
His music, lyrics, performances, video clips and personality. Stromae is definition of art
Just watched both of your Stromae reactions and you guys are doing an amazing job. Huge respect. I find a lot of reactions very performative which distracts from the video but you guys have a super well balanced delivery, right amount of pausing to give your thoughts and insight whilst still being able to enjoy the music. Really like the dynamic between you both. Huge props and looking forward to more.
We have 5 reactions so far and more to come, check out the Stromae playlist 🍻✌️
@@BeersBars just found it - on my fourth one already! Hah. Awesome work both
I saw an interview with Stromae and he was explaining this music video and how it took some serious editing with the way he matches the beat in the vid, hard too explain but the vid matches the beat perfectly.
Ps. His English is really good aswell
You have known Michael Jackson in his time and his genius -> Here we are proud of Belgium to present Stromae (Maestro) which we will talk about in the very distant future.
Pure genius in its time. With us, he is compared to Jacques Brel.
They about to hear a GENIUS
If you understand French, you will understand the song.. the beats its crazy
Kongo 🇨🇩 for life and Afrika for life..here
Also not sure if you have seen some of videos since you guys mentions how you werent sure if he composed some of his songs but he does actually have some videos where he shows how he started to build some of his popular songs up either through a keyboard, string instrument (like ukele i think), or with a mix board I think but its so cool to watch to see how his songs are built and some of them are recorded in like diff locations like he did one on a Gondala in Italy where he started to build up Tous Les Memes, or in a store after hours chilling in the aisles
THE KING
universal - yes - that’s why he’ll go down in history as a classic ❤
You probably already know by now but he has a band of 4 great guys, you should watch the live footage of Stromae
We just saw him in Montréal! Great show, we love his work
“STROMAE”…💁🏻♀️🙌🏽❤️👏🏽. He’s just AMAZING and one ☝️ GREAT ARTIST. I’m so disappointed that I missed 😢 his concert 🎵😮 and I’m in California 🤦🏻♀️. Thanks for supporting this artist. I can’t reemphasize it enough there’s so much more incredible music outside N. America. GREAT 👍🏽 REVIEW.
You gotta react to Dimash's S.O.S., the way he drops his register down and then goes extremely high up is unreal. He is a very talented Kazach singer.
Greetings from Belgium 🇧🇪
We say Stromae like Maestro - thats the origin of his name , so not stro-may but stro-mai ;) grtz from Belgium!
Some of the songs of this particular album were recorded with the Belgian National Orchestra.
Check out a few more of his songs, then look for the Racine Carrée Live Concert, it's worth your time!
If you havent seen Deflier as well by Stromae I also reccomend that one. I found stromae like few years ago and he had just released that one song after the long pause before the Multitude album was released. When he began releasing the new videos I was excited since Sante was already a good jam but when this one came out I was floored and damn this made me cry so much. Even though didnt read the lyrics yet the vocals still just speak for itself and very much I feel like captured the essence of like how an internal struggle/screaming could sound in a song.
Yay I love that you guys did another stromae video! I hope you check out Carmen, it’s incredible!
Added to the list!! ✌
Yooooo imma say this before it happens but almost at 10k yessir keep up the reactions enjoying them all!!!
Thank you 🙏🍻
you should see his shows, they are phonomenal.
My friend! Yea thanks for checking him out!
Truly our pleasure 🍻
Hi guys. excuse me for my poor english. i am an old belgian fellow. So if you have any questions about beers...ask me. I've had over 500 different belgian beers and still exploring. If you want to see the making off songs of stromae...you really need to see "alors on danse" (making of) (with an "s") cheers
Appreciate you 🍻✌️
he makes all of his beats. then he sends the production to his sound engineer to mix and master.
which is sad, it is that this music speaks about Stromae who lived what he is singing. and it is because of this that he again interrupted these concerts and his career for an indefinite period. The first time it lasted 7 years, and now we don't know😢
Stromae knows how to express deep feelings...
He creates his beats
Hello, stromae est un artiste très engager avec un univers bien à lui .
Écouter absolument la chanson formidable ,le clip est absolument exceptionnel, il a était tourner à Bruxelles en Belgique en plein centre ville et stromae à fais croire à tout les passant qui était là, qu'il était bourree tout en chantant dans la rue ,il n'a dévoiler la vérité que quelques mois plus tard ,c'était poir montrer au gens comment les utilisé les réseau social pour en faire ce qu'il veulent
Exact, et c'était excellent quand les flics sont venu le trouver et qu'il a discuté avec eux, et eux très sympa, un d'eux lui disant qu'il était un fan et lui demandant si il avait fait la fête et qu'il était bourré
One of the best french speaking artist at the moment.
If you guys loved it you should check other french rappers i.e Orelsan and Damso for example, if you haven't already, you'll be on for a treat.
Great reaction guys! 👌👌👌 Would you react to his song CARMEN? It's about social media. 🤭
That sounds very interesting! We will definitely look into that!!
I dont know if it was mentioned before, but he writes his own stuff and also makes his own beats. He has his own Label
You have to ear the one “cancer” from stromae!🙏🏻 It’s the beast one! I’s the one that everyone can relate with!
Btw I was at he’s concert in North America! It was so perfect!!❤
He is singing about depression and thoughts about suicide saying am i not alone in being alone
great reaction. Hope to see more Stromae.
Definitely🍻✌️
HE IS A ONE MAN BAND hes doing all on a laptop and a mini keyboard
Stromae and Miguel would have the greatest collaboration ever, the sounds are two totally different cultures but overlap perfectly. Might splice together some songs later if no one does
Watch the vidéo carmen. It's Amazing.
Sorry guys, but you can't understand a song unless you know what the lyrics are. I do not know French, but I make an effort to check translation lyrics. You will make better reactions if you understand what the songs are about. Especially in this song. Stromae sings about being depressed and having suicidal thoughts and it's a real story. That's why he took a break from the music industry for couple of years. So please check out the lyrics in English. It's very important. I recommend to listen to "Tous les memes" and "Formidable". Both are amazing songs.
Agreed, it it hard read along because his videos are so captivating!
Chill bro, they had the english subtitles on. Check this vid on your laptop full screen and you'll see
You guys have to hear avf with maitre gims and orelsan (another genius)
Eh les gars doucement sur le pinard! 😊😂Sinon une très bonne analyse. Merci à vous on adore Stromae.
