Israel à l’Eurovision
Lors de mes nombreux moments d’attentes entre les différentes compilations et exécutions (et oui, 12 000 enregistrements ne s’échangent pas comme ça), j’ai découvert la chanson qui a représenté Israël lors de l’Eurovision 2005, interprétée par Shiri Maymon.
Vous pouvez découvrir son clip Hasheket shenishar (Le silence qui reste) ; je le trouve personnellement très beau, elle a une voix douce et, ce qui ne gâche rien, est très mignonne (je lui trouve un petit côté Mariah Carey d’il y a quelques années).
Les paroles se trouvent dans la suite de l’article
Voici les paroles de la chanson (en hébreu ‘transformé’ en caractères occidentaux puis en anglais) :

I was like a blind woman at daybreak
So much reasoning, there was no room left for feelings
I’m next to you, shivering, and this drug has not subsided yet
Inhaling you, and the taste is already bitterYou look at me differently, you’re cold
You shy away from me, I can’t take it
It is not the same anymore, and the cold returns
Another day goes by and I cannot breatheNight falls slowly, time stands still
And you are the silence that remains
One second - at the end of the game – …and I am spiraling down with youYou are the silence that remains
Evening time, again, running in shadows
The dusk is surrounding me, but I try to think about you again /
(through the mist I am trying to see your image clearly)
A long minute – that seems like eternity – goes by
It feels empty without you.You look at me differently, you’re cold
Another day goes by and I cannot breatheNight falls slowly, time stands still
And you are the silence that remains
One second - at the end of the game – …and I am spiraling down with you
Time stands still
And you are the silence that remains
One second - at the end of the game – …and I am spiraling down with you
