Balade

This sound conveys fatigue and tenderness, tangled like headphones in a pocket. Outside, there is a party, rhythm, non-stop movement. Inside, there is a desire to simply breathe out next to someone alive. Here, love does not sound loud, but like a message sent hastily before a flight: “Let's go for a walk while I'm still here.”

He seems to say “bébé,” but his voice is not flirtatious, but regretful. Between the lines is the anxiety that time is running out and the connection is becoming digital and fragile. The music flows smoothly, as if the night itself is rocking the city to the beat, and all that remains is to catch this brief moment before having to leave again.
