This draws a lot of inspiration from Elliott Smith, Mazzy Star and Phoebe Bridgers. The song is deeply personal to me. Spent about. a year producing it <3more

Quelque chose de plus beau
For a long time, I considered love to be a mawkish subject, probably lulled by a Disney culture coupled with my rather materialistic engineering training. But over time, I've become completely relaxed about the subject and have come to believe that it's the most important subject in the universe. We've been singing about it since the dawn of time without understanding its origins. We talk about a form of attachment, but it's much deeper than that. True reciprocal love creates a form of quantum entanglement between two beings that neither distance, time nor death can undo. Something beyond our dimensions and understanding, as evoked in the excellent film 'interstellar'. In short, it's serious stuff and deserved another song ;) (...and don't miss the end) (translated from french) ----- A feeling Intangible and powerful has freed itself from time Becomes omnipresent Two become one It's strange and divine Even if I'm not sure Where I fall, where you come from If the heart were life If love deep down Played other dimensions Beyond the mind Beyond words Something higher, more beautiful We feel it But no one understands Universal yet Big entanglement Gravity Between us is bent No law ever Can separate us If the heart were life If love deep down Played other dimensions Beyond the mind Beyond words Something higher, more beautiful Something higher Something more beautiful more
