Thats the point of his music. He wants people to have a dope beat they can dance to but lyrics that are deep and emotional he expressed that his music is like life we are adaptive we could be going through hell but we have a tendency to bounce back. We could be sad and hide it with smiles and laughter. There r ups and downs sometimes good sometimes bad sometimes happy sometimes sad. He wants the music to reflect that
Im not a french speaker but when i first heard his music i felt the depth of it. I felt that inwas dancing but that there was so much more here than just senseless dance music. I can feel the darkness in his music, so i was intrigued. So i read hos lyrics and became awe struck. It literally inspired me to learn french. Ive been going strong so far. I thank Stromae for that.
FOR Y’ALL WHO DON’T UNDERSTAND THE TITLE ‘PAPAOUTAI”LITERALLY MEANS WHERE IS DAD?IN THE SONG HE MENTIONED THERE ARE SONGS FOR MOMS BUT NONE FOR DADS WHERE ARE DADS?THAT IS WHAT HE SAID LITERALLY
Its hilarious when you are frenc speaker and you understand perfectly but still jump and dance💃 but then the lurics hit you after listening and you get into depression
This reminds me of a time that a European asked me about the lyrics of a Latin American salsa song playing in the background (a song we would definitely dance to), and then was shocked to learn how tragic were the lyrics given how upbeat the song sounded.
The song may sound upbeat and happy, but the lyrics are downright tragic and left a gaping hole in my heart. I love you, dad, and I hope you still live many years from now on.
Very few people realised that it was a emotional song.
Yeah
I only just realised now😕😕
Yeah... I realized in French class in grade 8 when we were watching the vid
I didn't know it was sad😭 see this reminds me of the good ol racing into the night days when I thought that was a happy song too😭
I Realized Since 2014
even the French danced on it don't worry 😂
He's dad died in the Rwandan Genocide he was part of the group that was being killed (Tutsis)
As someone who actually understands French I still dance to it always
I do a bit my played this song a lot
Im french :)
Same
Same... but I dance to a ton of sad songs. Depressing songs are my jam
Ofc. We can dance to sad songs too!
« Daddy where are you » people : dance
Yo beat is fire can't blame anyone 💯
Is a sad story 😔☹️
Even after I had to learn all the lyrics for my French homework I still dance to it
NAHHHH YOU HAD TO MEMORISE STROMAE SONGS? LUCKY

Simply........... genius
Yh my french teacher told me it was made and became a top hit bc people understood the song and how it reflected on their own life
@@fishman1255 that's basically his point genius
@@jinwoo7576 i just said my french teacher also said it genius
@@fishman1255 don't say "nah" if you're going to agree
For those of you who might not know, those chimps in the video are from Coldplay’s music video for their song Adventure of a Lifetime
I mean, same thing he did with Alors on Danse, that's his purpose with the music he writes.
as someone who lost their father i don't find this song something to dance to but something that arouses all the emotions within me 😂😂
Same as L’enfer

He’s literally dancing in the music video
he doesnt want people to feel sad listening to it
The dance in the video is more interpretation of the song and artistic instead of celebratory
@@daze77gaming nah. He just wants to make a dope music and slip some value in it

He represented his own people
Pov : Hey Stromae What you want
Stromae : Daddy I don't buy anymore
Daddy : Why
Stromae : the time for the rest of the day goes well 💀💀
This reminds me of a time that a European asked me about the lyrics of a Latin American salsa song playing in the background (a song we would definitely dance to), and then was shocked to learn how tragic were the lyrics given how upbeat the song sounded.
THIS IS LIFE
Facts 💯 that's why I like it cause I knew it was about not having his dad around
Es que el ritmo que le puso es tan contagioso !!! Amo Stromae

Bizim ilkokul 1deki 23 Nisan için dans yaptığımız şarkı lgyo5egğhühpgod6oh
Sometimes i miss my dad when he goes on buisness trips, i have asked this question he is asking in the song many times
The song may sound upbeat and happy, but the lyrics are downright tragic and left a gaping hole in my heart.
I love you, dad, and I hope you still live many years from now on.
Well, he *did* put dancing in the video so you can't exactly blame them😅
The dancing was part of the emotion
The song is good.

Why did he make it so hype then? 😂
true, but i don't think he would've made it so catchy or dance to it himself live if he wasn't ok with people jamming out to it
Dancing out of sadness
Even tho idk who’s stromae but I got it😂
A French singer
@@erosnieldegue6002 no no no he's a Belgian musician

Hermos a la letra , pero el ritmo es espectacular te hace querer bailar
If I wrote the song bruh it's a sad song

Omg for realllll
But that's literally what his MV shows, so....
Se a pessoa entra na tristeza baixa a frenquecia.entao dance pra que a vibraçao fique la em cima,pois tristeza leva a depressao
Ppl who loves the song ------
The title aswell comes from "Papa où t'es?" that means Where are you Dad
Sü süle sü sü süle süle ssüle

That's what he would've wanted
Bro this shit is just tragic😭

😂😂
C nous les français😢
I'm confused. They want us to dance or cry.
True XD
Ay wait a min did you just call the rest of the world Monkeys?!🙈
True
It's weird how so many people get hyped about a depressing song
It sounds catchy though ngl. Many emotional songs are misinterpreted
@@kylefrew9645 that's very true
You didn't listen to Alors on danse, did you?
Lol
hhaahaha
So...is it illegal to dance on sad songs??
🤣🤣🤣
Moamet Ali
He's asking where his dad went. I assume he went to buy the milk 🚶💨
He died in a genocide
@@verdosestyle9228 that's sad...
Oui c'est tres triste
C'est pas de notre faute si on peut pas se contrôler
Well the original song videoclip doesn't look sad and there's a lot of dancing in it so this video is pointless
fr
😁🙂😌😐
