This is a french bossa ! The title means " at the edge of the pond " RD BossaBrushes RT 711 Acoustic bass RT 1103 Nylon rythm guitar RT 1063 Tenor sax RT 1379 Solo nylon guitar Here are the french lyrics : 1) Au bord de l'étang, là, je me détends, profitant de l'instant. Les nuages qui passent peuvent laisser des traces. Moi, j'écoute chanter le vent ! 2) Au pied du vieux chêne, je n'sens plus mes chaînes. Y'a le rêve qui m'attend...... Je me laisse aller, seul dans la vallée, un brin d'paille entre les dents. 3) Là, je me ressource. Ce n'est plus la course. J'ai oublié le temps. L'insouciance est belle, me crie l'hirondelle. Moi, j'écoute chanter le vent ! https://soundcloud.com/christian-devienne/au-bord-de-letang

Bonjour,
At first listen I thought of Jacques Brel. I know he is Belgian but the music and your voice, beautiful.
Nice arrangement, the solos fitted perfectly.
Very very enjoyable
magnifique

Well, Christian !
I think I got the
grip on the meaning
of the lyrics when
trying to translate
them with google translate 1
I think the music
fitted the story
very well and you sung
it with feeling and
emotion !:))
Cheers
Dani
PS My daughters were recently
visiting Paris to watch a.o.
The French Open ! Lovely pictures

Hi Christian.
Très belle chanson.
Nice choice of RTs and a good arrangement. Somehow, it sounded to have a French feel, even without the lyrics. I kept expecting to hear an accordion appear from somewhere, but perhaps that would have been too much!
Great vocal, enchanting lyrics and an excellent mix.
ROG.

I guess its all french to me.
Nice work on this.
Enjoyed the lazy lay back style.
The sax really set the mood.
Thanks for sharing.

Salut compatriote :-)
J'adore la bossa en principe, donc je suis mauvais juge en principe pour ce style de musique, je dirais néanmoins que ta chanson, et notamment ta voix, me rappelle un chanteur de bossa fameux que tu connais certainement : Pierre Barroux

Merci, mon ami pour ta comparaison avec la voix de Pierre Barouh. Je viens de réécouter Samba Saravah qui est vraiment une bossa envoûtante (en français comme en brésilien) et je n'oublie pas que Pierre Barouh fut un des pionniers de la bossa en France. Merci à lui et merci à toi d'avoir ravivé ces supers souvenirs musicaux ! Christian
Bossa-Nova is really a wonderful magical music !

Hi Christian, This was a very enjoyable journey. I only speak English and I love listening to songs in other languages because it allows me to hear musical sounds and rhymes rather than concentrate on processing words. It's a beautiful bossanova. Regards, Noel

Bonjour Christian,
Merci pour la chanson. Je vivais à Paris depuis deux ans. Je ne parle pas très bien le français plus longtemps.
Quelle partie de France vivez-vous? Je peux généralement choisir l'accent mais pas cette fois.
Merci
Billy
New location, new environment, new music coming soon

Hi Billy.
I live in Touraine (between Tours and Poitiers).
Je ne sais pas si mon accent est caractéristique de cette région !
Merci pour ton message. Christian

He sings better than me. Christian

He does a wonderful job on this.

Hi Ray,
I think Patrick has a velvet voice which fits very well with Bossa-nova.
