Lyrics by Mylène Farmer. Music composed by Léon Deutschmann / Mylène Farmer

“Talking about the future, well, I can put myself in the shoes of someone younger, more adolescent, who is discovering the future.” (Mylène Farmer – RFM – 12/18/2018)

When discovering the album Disobedience, many fans found that the melodies composed by Léon Deutschmann recalled those of Laurent Boutonnat to the point of thinking that he could have been hiding behind a nickname. Pascal Nègre had to publish a message on twitter on September 27 to put an end to these doubts: “# LÉONDEUTSCHMANN the third composer of the # Disobedience album by #MyleneFarmer is French, and he is only 20 years old ….”

Parler d’avenir is one of the two songs on the album Désobéissance – with We need to believe it – for which Mylène co-composed the music.

“A third composer who is very young, called Léon, Léon Deutschmann, and who is 21 years old, I believe, and who comes from more of a classical training. And I discovered an incredible music lover.” (Mylène Farmer – RFM – 10/02/2018)

“It’s true that in her composition, she reminded me, at least in terms of melody, reminded me a lot of Laurent Boutonnat, and I immediately loved this music and put my words on it .” (Mylène Farmer – RFM – 12/18/2018)

Léon Deutschmann at the time was a close friend of Lisa Gautier (Mylene’s niece) . Did he really get the secret formula of Laurent Boutonnat? Find out more about him in the Desobeissance chapter:

“We will particularly remember […] Parler d’avenir , a mid-tempo track in the pure farmerian style”. (téléloisirs.fr)

“The musician also offers him one of his best proposals with Parler d’avenir, a rock ballad where hope meets the scent of yesteryear.”. (Pure Charts)

“Three songs, Desobeissance, Parler d’avenir and Holding back water, were produced with Leon Deutschmann. We find there the manner of the great hours of Mylène Farmer with Laurent Boutonnat, choral voice, strings, orchestrations provided, readability of the rhythmic-melodic hook. A pleasantly known universe, complementary to the more “experimental” part of this disc. ” (Lemonde.fr)

“The titles of the songs also hollow out this optimistic vein, […] Parler d’avenir ” (leparisien.fr)

“Mylène explores a soft and pretty mid-tempo soundscape on the contemplative Parler d’avenir ” (Idolator.com)

lyrics with translation

Il est flou, flou le paysage
Tu rougis
Même quand il fait noir, trop pour t'y voir
Cachée dans ton lit
Tu fuis
Le regard d'autrui, pourtant la vie
Parler d'avenir
T'effraie
Et si c'était un souffle ou le vide
Tu voudrais juste t'endormir
Quoique l'on en dise
Je vais
Oublier tes doutes pour l'autre rive
Au moins le temps d'un rire
L'eau coule dans ton manteau
Me glacer
Me plonger dans ta réalité
T'évader dans du satin
Poursuivre un chemin, le tien mais là
Parler d'avenir
T'effraie
Et si c'était un souffle ou le vide
Tu voudrais juste t'endormir
Quoique l'on en dise
Je vais
Oublier tes doutes pour l'autre rive
Au moins le temps d'un rire
Parler d'avenir
T'effraie
Et si c'était un souffle ou le vide
Tu voudrais juste t'endormir
Quoique l'on en dise
Je vais
Oublier tes doutes pour l'autre rive
Au moins le temps d'un rire
Au moins le temps d'un rire

It is blurred, blurred the landscape
You blush
Even when it's dark, too dark to see you
Hiding in your bed
You flee
The look of others, yet life
Talking about the future
Frightens you
And if it were a breath or the void
You would just like to fall asleep
No matter what anyone says
I'll
Forget your doubts for the other side
At least for the time of a laugh
The water flows in your coat
To freeze me
Plunge me into your reality
To escape in satin
Pursuing a path, yours but here
Talking about the future
Scares you
And if it were a breath or the void
You'd just like to fall asleep
No matter what anyone says
I'll
Forget your doubts for the other side
At least for the time of a laugh
Talking about the future
Scares you
And if it were a breath or the void
You'd just want to fall asleep
No matter what anyone says
I'll
Forget your doubts for the other side
At least for the time of a laugh
At least the time of a laugh
